hula hooping to fitness

I have been mastering a weighted hula hoop I bought as part of my shape up programme. I can heartily recommend it to anyone who has not tried it since childhood. The weights mean it is alot easier to spin and keep it up and they can be bought very cheaply. It is also alot of [...]
