Review on GATE FITNESS® Weighted Hula Hoop by Erick Hernandez

This hoop is a great workout. When I first used it, it was difficult to keep the tire at waist level due to its weight. You have to work really hard to keep it where it needs to be, but that's the point. I can't use it for more than a few minutes but the stamina is increasing day by day. Being under 5' tall I liked that I could only use 7 sections instead of all 8. 7 sections seems like the perfect size for me. The only thing I have to complain about is that the frame is difficult to assemble. Even though I'm a track and field athlete, I didn't have the strength to hold all the parts of the tire together. It takes a lot of muscle power to connect the parts together. I reluctantly had to ask my husband for help collecting it.
