Unfortunately I cannot see what you’re doing but I have a ball and sock trick to help with oomph if that is what’s missing- usually that is the problem. The lack of momentum generated. It happens very very often that there’s not enough power. Try this video of mine, in there I show you how to bounce a ball on your tummy CANNOT KEEP UP A HULA HOOP? TRY THIS! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNeDd810uavOn30.html If you are good at bouncing the ball, then try your hoop again a few times. If still not happening, I would go on Etsy and look up an HDPE hoop - people make hoops of all sizes there and it is possible to find a 40” or 42” hoop. That I would try only if the ball trick didn’t work. The diameter of the hoop is very important. These weighted hoops can be heavy but not a helpful size… the 40” hoop may look ridiculously huge… but it will stay up! Not sure what is the diameter of the hoop that you’re using but if it is smaller, it almost doesn’t matter how heavy it is, it will be still hard for a beginner. Do check the ball trick in the video I pasted above and give it a go, Darling. You probably can do it really soon just need to trick your nervous system. You’ll be awesome 🫶🏼❤️🙌💋

Thank you so much for all your kind words! Means a lot to me 🙏💗 I hope hooping helped you discover how much fun exercise can be and now you're madly in love with movement & super excited about all the things you can achieve 🫶 enjoy the journey, have lots and lots of fun, Gorgeous 💋

Thank you, Gorgeous Xandra 💗 too often I hear people focus on the calories or their fat and how dizzy they get or how hard it is... but at the end of the day: we need to focus on all the things that keep us going... we cannot ever feel victorious if we are focusing on all the things we are bad at and struggling with... for me when I get dizzy it makes me excited because I then know that I stimulated my vestibular system... working all day at a desk delivers zero stimulation and if i carry on for days and years with zero stimulation: of course it all goes out the window... but when I play and do the things that challenge me, I almost feel like it is a massive check mark off my to do list: I got a little dizzy ✅ I got sweaty & out of breath ✅ I wobbled as I was trying to balance ✅ got stretched and mobilised ✅ the more we understand the body the more we appreciate it and respect it and look after it. The more excited we get about all the epic changes we can achieve 💫 keep shining brigth and pushing yourself every time, you're awesome! 3 hoops is epic! can even do 2 around the waist 1 overhead... or using a step or yoga block for elevation to step up and down, too ⚡️

Thank you so much, Pat for leaving a comment and for always being so kind 💖 I think we can so easily switch the focus during a workout and that helps with the rest of the day and our whole life... we can focus on all the things we dislike and that don't look good... or we can choose to focus on learning about it, learning to appreciate it, learning to respect it and that will improve our performance and mood... that changes our habits and that changes what we look and feel like. I don't want to waste too much time giving entire anatomy lessons when people come to me to sweat or learn hooping but sprinkling bits in there I think is exactly the guidance our brain needs to wander to helpful places. At the end of the day we all workout to feel good about ourselves, we are all trying our best. Let's make exercise and learning into a happy place together ❤️ editing module 32 of Exotic all day today and I'm so excited 😊 I know you will enjoy it, it's super challenging but it has so many regressions and progressions that I know it will guide you to achieve fun epic stunts you never dared even dreaming about. You are picking up über awesome skills & fitness 💖💖💖 I hope you're feeling chuffed about how far you've come and excited about all that you can conquer 👌💪🏆✨️

Many thanks! Happy hooping, have lots of fun 💗

Gorgeous! You really made my day 🙏 thank you for such a meaningful & lovely comment 💋😚 50s sounds perfect, hooping can get you started off nice and gently and you will just keep getting stronger, more flexible and you will be amazed how far you can get! It's not really like other workouts or sports. This is more about knowing your body, being patient, paying attention. The older we are the better we are at these things! ✨️wow! if you have 2 granddaughters you will be the most fun gran I can ever imagine! Seriously! How wild that would have been if your and my grannies were hooping! We would have such magical memories and skills! You're an excellent role model! 👏 If you hang out with me long enough you will soon forget about the scales... hooping somehow teaches us to love ourselves and get confident and notice + appreciate our gifts! We all have something marvellous about us. While some are stronger, others are more coordinated, others more flexible, some more creative and playful. You will discover all your gifts and they will make you fall madly in love with every single pound of you! You will grow stunning firm lean muscles which devour all your calories and tone up your gorgeous skin. You have all this coming, it was meant to be. You had to come this far to now discover hooping and receive all this inspiration at the perfect time! Hooping came to my life at the perfect time, too. I was always overweight, unfit and had zero confidence and I had to live like that to know what that feels like and celebrate every single day when I feel deserving and whole and lovable. Had to be a little broken to value what I have now. When we take things for granted and when things come easy, we tend to not know their value... now you will achieve beyond your imagination and you will wildly celebrate it all 💖 your shiny new chapter is full of joy, laughter, play, wellness, learning... it is all unfolding for you, you deserve it 🙏💋😚

@@BeeVargaTheHulahooper awe you are a loving person I can tell. Thanks sorry much for cheering me on. Many blessings to you and your daughter. Very curious about your veg garden, do you have videos/channel of it? I have a garden too in my backyard city lot. 😊

Thank you, gorgeous 💗 I hope you're feeling you're getting fitter and your whole body and mind is full of energy and excitement to do more hooping and play more, wiggle & giggle. Lots of love 💗

Thank you, Darling Christine 💖 I hope you shall keep picking your hoop regularly and keep claiming quality feel-good time for yourself 💖 lots of love 💋😚

Wow ❤️ thank you 😊 I appreciate your lovely words 🫶 viewers hardly ever leave any comments so it feels like I'm talking to myself 🤪 and I am not sure if anyone enjoys this. Thank you so much for showing up with your kindness & I'm glad you're enjoying hooping 💖 keep claiming fun playtime for yourself with your cool toy and let this new hobby glow up your days and put a smile on your face 💖 lots of love ❤️💋

Thank you ❤️ I'm learning 💪 we both are! Some may not care about the body that much and those who just keep staring at calories they burnt and fat they want to get rid of: they will not like my style anyway. Those who are curious about their bodies and want to stop fighting it but ready to make friends and tame every little body part while getting fit: they are my tribe. Took me a while to learn that most will not enjoy the way I workout because they don't want to understand physiology, they just want to count repetitions or number of tricks. Those who are ready for a full body and mind transformation will be having a party with me. They sculpt a physique with epic proportions, they learn fun moves that make them feel irresistible and they will not be insecure worrying about how many tricks they can or cannot do, constantly comparing themselves... With me it's never about number of calories or tricks or comparison: it's about getting and feeling smoking hot & confident, noticing + celebrating our own growth and improvements. The hoop is just the perfect tool for that 👌🪄💖 hope you had an epic Easter 💖💖💖 lots of love 💋💋💋

Thank you for leaving a comment 💗 Hope you had so much fun that you are now super inspired to keep picking your hoop up for your daily happy wellness wiggle 💋 happy hooping 💫

Thank you, Famy 💖 I do try to not be too miserable 🤣 all this wiggling and playfulness gives our lives a fun makeover, doesn't it? A glow up ✨️ enjoy, dance, play, relax & keep having fun, Gorgeous 💋💋💋

@@BeeVargaTheHulahooper thanks Bee

Thanks for sharing your progress 🏆 Focus on your stance and make sure your feet are grounded. Gently shift your weight to guide the hoop in the direction you want. It might feel a bit awkward at first, but with practice, you'll build up that muscle memory. And most importantly, have patience with yourself. Rome wasn't built in a day, and mastering a new skill takes time. Keep at it, stay positive, and you'll definitely see improvement. You're doing great, keep shining!" 🌟🌀 www.beevargathehulahooper.com/hooping-habit 🔗 on the website I have tons of workouts & tutorials to help with it all and this very same workout has a conditioning session for free on the website.
