Hip Circle with Hula Hoop

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and place the hula hoop around your waist.

2. Hold the hoop against your lower back with both hands.

3. Give the hoop a good spin around your waist in either a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction.

4. Start moving your hips in a circular motion to keep the momentum of the hoop going.

5. Engage your core muscles and stand up straight to help maintain control over the hoop.

6. As you get more comfortable, you can experiment with slowing down or speeding up the movement of your hips to change the hoop's speed.

7. Continue the exercise for a set duration or until you're unable to keep the hoop from falling.

8. To increase the challenge, try moving your feet (stepping, twisting, or turning) while keeping the hoop in motion.

Remember to have fun with it and move to the rhythm that feels best for you. Hula hooping can be a playful cardiovascular activity that also engages your core and lower body muscles.
