Hula Hoop
Do you hoop? I just got one and lemme tell you -it's hard! Requires massive 'core strength' and I'm finding holding my arms up (to keep them out of the way) gets tiresome quickly.
How did I get one? Funny story - went to a very rural, earthy music festival and people all over the place were hooping. Some so extravagantly it looked like they were bell dancing. There was a woman selling them and she gave me a lesson on how to do it (I'm totally a klutz). She said 10 minutes a day would whittle away my tummy (skinny little bean that she was) and it made sense.
I've worked my way up to a whole minute. It's rough on your lower back if you have any issues there. Apparently there are hoop clubs everywhere and it's the new (old) thing. Who knew?
Do you hoop? Other than practice, anything to know?
