I came across the 30-day weighted hula hoop challenge on YouTube and was immediately intrigued! One of the participants managed to remove 4 links from her hoop by the end of the challenge. Based on their experiences, I’ve learned that this isn’t a tool for shedding pounds but rather for losing inches and slimming your waist. So, keep that in mind if you're considering buying one.

I'm currently on day 6 of hooping, and so far, the results have been great! The hoop comes with 34 adjustable links that can be easily added or removed to fit your waist. Adjusting it is super simple. For reference, I’m 5’2" and weigh 175 lbs. As you can see in the photos I’ve shared, I have a large belly and not much of a defined waist. I’m excited to see if I’ll notice a significant difference like the women in the YouTube videos by the 30-day mark. I started with 19 links. One of the most satisfying aspects of this product is being able to physically remove links as you progress. I’m looking forward to removing at least 5 links by the end of this journey!

I’ve heard that some weighted hula hoops can be noisy, but this one is surprisingly quiet. The weighted ball has a rubber track that glides smoothly without any issues. The equipment feels sturdy and well-made. Currently, I can't manage the full 30 minutes in one go, so I split it into two 15-minute sessions—one in the morning and one at night. I’m not sure if that will yield the same results as a continuous 30-minute session, but I’ll definitely update you on my progress! I’ll be sharing my final thoughts and pictures.

I chose this hula hoop over others because, in the videos, it seemed really quiet, and I liked that it came with a lot of pieces. Given my belly size, I initially thought I’d need 28 pieces. However, when I tried it on, I found I could close it with just 24, but to be on the safe side, I used 25 pieces. It’s incredibly quiet and runs smoothly. Once you get the hang of “bouncing” side to side to keep the weight moving, it’s actually a lot of fun. You can also adjust the distance of the weight, and it moves faster the farther out you place it. You’ll have to experiment a bit to find what works best for you. For the price, it’s a fantastic buy, and I’d definitely purchase it again. It’s much more affordable than the $120 name-brand option.

I’ve only had this for two days, so I can’t speak to the weight loss or toning results just yet. However, I’m pleasantly surprised by the quality and how easy it was to connect. I really enjoy using the hoop—just put on some music and have fun! 😃 I do recommend watching a YouTube video on how to use it correctly. I initially had mine a bit too loose, and it was drooping in the front and back. It should fit snugly and sit straight. Adjusting it is easy—just unsnap and snap it back on. For the price, the quality is impressive!

It’s simple to set up and much more comfortable than a traditional hula hoop. I’m committed to using it—I’m going to slim down!

I absolutely love my hoop! In just one week, I was able to remove a link. I also love that I can use it almost anywhere I go. Highly recommend!

This was delivered while I was at dinner, and I couldn’t wait to try it out, so I threw it on over my dress and turned on the TV. I was already wearing a stomach wrap—if you don’t have one, I recommend getting one. My heart rate stayed between 113-130, and as you can see, I definitely worked up a sweat, burning nearly 160 calories while watching TV and having fun. It’s a bit loud, so I had to read subtitles, but it was totally worth it!
