  5. In comparison • Vigorous Hula Hooping can burn as many calories per minute as running an 8-minute mile. • Hooping at a slower rate can burn as many calories as running a 12-minute mile or jogging in place. • “The best form of exercise is the one you’ll do continuously. If you like running, don’t give up running for hooping, but if you like to hoop, do that!”

  6. Cautions and Precautions • As a precaution, you should always check with your health care provider before starting any new exercise routine. • A note of caution, exercisers may have soreness or bruising on their midsections at first, but it will disappear once your body gets used to the force on your body.

  7. How to get started • Beginners should start out hooping between one to three minutes, six to seven times a day. • Build to three to five minutes for each session the second week, and then increase by about three minutes each week after that.

  8. Finding the right size for you • Based on your height and weight. • Some manufacturers will go by weight groups, while others will go by height. • To find the right hoop by height, stand the hula hoop on the floor and ideally, the top should come somewhere between your waist and chest. • The largest hoops are for those who want a longer, more aerobic workout, while the smaller hoops are for those who are more experienced and want to burn calories quickly.
