Hula Hoop's Positive Health Effect

When doing home training, you look for easy and convenient exercises rather than high-intensity exercises, and among them, there is hula hoop exercise, a home training that is easy, simple, and has a definite exercise effect. Hula hoop exercise is an aerobic exercise that has a greater effect than expected in repeated turns and does not cause much strain on the body, so it is also good to do at home because it does not require a large space.


There are lots of positive health effects when you do hula hoop.


1. Improve intestinal function

Since hula hoop exercise gives strong stimulation to the waist area, it stimulates the intestine, relieves constipation, excretes waste, and improves metabolism.


2. no joint burden

If your ankle or knee joints are not good, you will not be able to enjoy various exercises and do heavy exercises. However, hula hoops can be selected with a variety of weights, and if you choose with a weight similar to or less than your own, you can exercise repeatedly every day without any burden on your spine or joints.


3. a loss of body fat

As the word hula hoop diet has been said, hula hoop has a tremendous aerobic exercise effect. If you continuously turn the hula hoop for about 30 minutes, 300Kcal is consumed, and it has the same effect as walking 7km, so it can have a great effect on diet. In particular, it is an aerobic exercise that can be done indoors in the cold winter when there is little movement, and hula hoops can be seen as a whole body exercise effect, even strengthening cardiopulmonary functions.


Then, what and how I should do hula hoop?


The hula hoop is very easy to operate, but you have to stretch it enough before turning it. Hold the middle of the hula hoop with both hands and loosen the ankle while supporting the body. After that, spread your legs moderately and use your waist to turn the hula hoop with your shoulders and arms fixed.


There are some precautions before you start your hula hoop exercise.


Hula hoop is an exercise that you have to turn with your waist, but you have to turn it on both sides, not just one side. If you turn the hula hoop in only one direction, it can strain your back and even cause back pain, so it is necessary to turn it in both directions for a balanced body with both symmetries.


Hula hoop is considered enough exercise to do at least 30 minutes a day, not several times a day. If you have pain in your back when you do it every day, it can be effective even if you proceed every other day.


There are so many different types of hula hoops, but it's good to make your first start with a light weight, but you can't fill the amount of exercise. You should choose a hula hoop that fits the space with a moderate weight. The heavier the hula hoop, the more calories it consumes, and if you move your waist repeatedly, you can correct the crooked pelvis, so the more you do it steadily, the more helpful it is.
