Dumoyi Smart Weighted Hoop for Adults Weight Loss,Infinity Fitness Hoop Plus Size for Women Smart Exercise Equipment

Works good but kinda hard to get the hang of and figure out what size you should size it to at first. It is a good work out!

The hard plastic links make this slightly uncomfortable to wear and getting the swing of things just right takes lots of practice

Edit on 8/13/24- after almost 2 weeks of having the new hoop I am returning it. It’s so frustrating to use and I figured “breaking it in” would help… nope. Sticking with the original hoop I got 2 years ago.UPDATE: I got a new hoop (on the left of the pic, old hoop on the right) after using the original for 2 years. It’s crazy how much the technology has changed.On the old one, one of the specific links had little black clasps that would hold the hoop shut. on this new one, the links are all the same so you can take it off or put it on however you want. Obviously be gentle.. the workout is a little harder, in a good way. It’s always weird getting use to something new. I prefer to keep the weight string shorter so I don’t hit things but this new one I have to have the strong longer to keep it moving and working. Which no biggie! Just something to get use to.So far im super happy with this new hoop.This is for the old hoop; the new one you will not get the same results ————I love this product. The trick is to shorten the string and wear the belt TIGHT against your body. It might pinch a little when you are swinging your hips but beauty is pain. I stand with the feet a little wider than my shoulders and I rock back and forth on my heels like I’m in a running position. I swing the weight 13 mins 1 way and 13 mins the other way, equaling 2 miles and 300 calories burned.You can’t put this on right away and be good. Like anything, it takes time to get the hang of it. Once you do, you’re gonna be sweating.Imagine “running” 4 miles in 40 minutes from the comfort of your own home. Your ankles, calves, and thighs will feel this burn.As I was removing my FOURTH link today, I realized how much I really love this little hoop.

This is the second hoop I’ve purchased. Let me start by saying I absolutely LOVED my first one. I told everyone about it and where to get it. Now to the replacement I purchased which I do NOT love like my old one.One of the wheels on the spin assembly broke off- not a big deal since I’ve had it for several years and use it regularly it was bound to wear out at some point. There are two negatives with the one I just bought as a replacement. First, the wheel assembly on the replacement one purchased does not seem as sturdy as the previous one- the previous one has three wheels per side as well as the wheels themselves were bigger and seemed sturdier made. Second is the previous one had a closing feature that had lock down things where as the new one is just clinking the links together which wouldn’t be a huge issue if I could actually disconnect them once connected. I’m thankful I decided to test the ease of disconnecting before I put it on me or there would probably be a sorry attached because I could not undo the links at all!!! I’ll be using the wheel and ball assembly on my old one since it fits but could have saved myself some money and just bought the ball. DISAPPOINTED and will not be purchasing a 3rd hoop.

I'd like to clear the air on the stigma behind this weighted hoop. Is it a miracle contraption that is going to make you magically shed weight and inches by using it? No, not exactly.For sedentary people, putting effort behind achieving movement in your everyday life will help you lose weight regardless. It could be a simple as walking around the block once a day or lifting weights while you sit on the couch. With that being said, this is perfect for incorporating into your healthier lifestyle. Don't want to go outside? No problem! You can put it on and go to town in your living room while binging Netflix shows.For people who are already active and want to lose a couple pounds, it's going to take more effort. I've learned ways to make it work for me. I hate running, cardio isn't my favorite. So, for me, this is a great alternative. I put the hoop on the hardest setting (by shortening the length of the rope holding the weight), add weights (I use a kettlebell), and squat low. If you know proper workout techniques and strategies, this is a great addition to any workout, in my opinion.The best part is that it is super easy (once you get used to it) and fun to use! If the hula-hoop and Skip It had a baby, this would be it. Whether you are looking for an effortless workout or something different to add to your routine, this is it. Take control of your health and have fun doing it!

This is a fun way to work out. Put on a show, music, podcast or a good audiobook (or read if your that skilled!) then get to work. I often forget that I am doing a work out. My kiddo is trying to learn to hula hoop and this is a fun way for us to both get a work out in while I teach her. It can be a challenge to do this if kiddos are around, mainly the smalls like my toddlers. They don't pay attention that a weighted ball is swinging around and can do some damage if they get in the way. They often throw off my groove by running through.It can be kinda noisy when you get started and when your in your groove but again have a good show or something on and it just becomes background noise. Super easy to put together. Taking links off is easy to do as well once you get the hang of it. At first I struggled to get them off. Thought I was going to be stuck in it forever. haha.Its easy to get it going. The best way I found was to have one foot more forward and shift your weight front to back vs trying to spin. Once you get it going you can try and shift your weight a different way to get a different work out or keep it front to back. Its a fun way to do a workout without it feeling like a workout.It seems pretty sturdy and well made. The weighted ball goes around pretty smoothly but will get sticky at some points. It seems to get stuck more when I am super bloated and the hoop is being pushed out a bit. Again it can be kinda noisy when it goes around the hoop but nothing crazy, I can usually drown it out.
