Ok, so after watching Marisa Tomei hooping on Ellen I had one of those 'I want that!' moments and decided to purchase a hoop for myself. I was surprised to learn that it was impossible to find one in stores so I decided to look it up on my go to 'e-tailer' Amazon.com. I've picked this one because I thought it might be a good match for my beginner/intermediate skill level. First of all, I have to say this again--hula hooping is so much fun! I usually do it while watching TV, playing with my phone/mp3 player so I hardly even notice that I'm exercising. I've been doing it for less than 2 weeks and I already notice the difference! My waist seems trimmer and there's definitely more muscle definition--not just on my stomach but also lower back and thighs. All in all--it's really really awesome. I think I'll upgrade to 3lb pretty soon. :)However, that being said, I do have to warn you that the first couple of days will be somewhat painful. I guess my abs were caught off guard with this sudden burst of intense (and believe you me, it is intense) exercise regimen and decided to rebel for a while. I'm no baby but I will admit that I was tempted to give up because the pain was a bit too much at first but now hooping feels really great. I should also add that I'm not very sensitive and have a really high threshold for pain. For me, the hoop didn't leave any marks whatsoever but I should mention that my roommate tried doing it one night for 10 minutes and woke up the next morning with major bruises on both sides of her waist (where hula hoop hits as it rotates around your body). She also purchased one but without the little bumps that this specific model has. Hope this helps!
