Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I managed 90seconds one way before it fell down, and just over 60 the other way. I did a smide over 5 minutes and actually could have carried on, but the plan is 5 minutes and I don't want to freak out my already freaky pelvis.

I love hula hooping. I set my timer to 15 mins and try my best. I need to up the timer though. It's a tough wee work out along with the skipping rope

5 minutes done but with lots of re-starts. I managed 47 spins at best - about 40 seconds I think? Something to build on. When I did this in 2014, I got to the point where I could walk around the garden whilst hooping.

Well dear me, that was a lot harder today. 3rd day for me and I felt sore on my stomach where it rolled against me. It'll ease. I had just got in from a longish walk (compared to recent times) so a bit tired too. But that's day 2 ticked off.

I am glad I have announced my I'm hula hooping, I very nearly didn't do it today. I did though, it was easier than yesterday, but not as easy as the 1st of June!

Fortunately I moved mine into the living room, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have done it, it used to live in the garage.
