What are the dangers of hula hooping?

With the development of the times, people like slim figures more and more. They no longer like the bloated Tang Dynasty. People prefer slim beauty, so weight loss has become more and more a topic of conversation after dinner. For example, hula hooping is the choice of many people. You can complete the weight loss plan without leaving home. However, those who want to lose weight do not know the harm of hula hooping. Let’s learn about the harm of hula hooping below.

1. Disadvantages of hula hooping:

1. Hula hoop is a simple waist exercise with a small amount of exercise. It is not realistic to achieve weight loss effect by relying on this exercise alone. In addition, the twisting and swinging part of the hula hoop is just at the junction of the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae. When the spine is twisted excessively or the abdominal pressure increases suddenly, it is possible to cause a sudden change in pressure in the spinal canal, leading to blood vessel rupture.

2. Hoop fitness should be scientific, otherwise it will be counterproductive.

First of all, you should pay attention to the fact that the exercise time should not be too long. Generally, 15-20 minutes of continuous exercise is best for normal adults. The hula hoop should not be too heavy or too large. The weight should be within the capacity of the index finger and middle finger. People with lumbar muscle strain, spinal injuries, and osteoporosis are not suitable for this exercise.

2. The benefits of hula hooping:

1. It can be used to slim the waist and is also a good helper for leg and arm fitness.

2. Squeezing acupuncture effect: It gives the abdomen and waist a squeezing effect similar to massage and acupuncture.

3. Treatment of constipation: Regularly using a spring hula hoop and wrapping it around the waist can stimulate the intestines, treat constipation, and effectively eliminate the pain caused by constipation.

4. Weight loss: The centripetal force generated by the spring has an exercise effect that is 3 times heavier than the actual weight. The spring massages the waist and a large amount of limb movement when turning the hula hoop, which effectively burns body fat. It can achieve the purpose of fitness while losing weight, and you can lose weight and exercise at the same time.

A few things to note when turning the hula hoop:

1. How long does it take to achieve fitness results?

Hula hooping is a whole-body exercise that can achieve the effect of weight loss, but the exercise time must be long enough. Because the hula hoop exercise intensity is not very strong, only by extending the exercise time and continuous exercise to reach the stage of aerobic exercise can the body's stored fat and excess calories be consumed. How long should you shake to achieve the best fitness results? You may wish to refer to the "333" exercise promoted by the State Sports Commission, which is to exercise three times a week, each time for at least 30 minutes, with a heart rate of 130 beats per minute. Since hula hooping is not an intense enough exercise, if you want to increase your heart rate, you must speed up the shaking.

2. The heavier the hula hoop, the better the effect?

In fact, the heavier the better is not necessarily true. Perhaps a heavier hula hoop may require more effort to swing at the beginning, but it will become an inertial movement afterwards. The key is to exercise long enough, otherwise the short-term intense exercise is only anaerobic exercise, which will only cause muscle soreness and will not consume excess calories. In addition, the hula hoop will hit the internal organs in the abdomen and back (such as the kidneys) when it is swung. A hula hoop that is too heavy will have a relatively large impact force, which may cause damage to the internal organs, so it is better to choose a hula hoop of moderate weight!

3. Not suitable for people with lumbar muscle strain or calcium deficiency

Because hula hooping mainly relies on the strength of the waist, it fully exercises the psoas muscles, abdominal muscles, side psoas muscles and other parts. Persistent exercise can achieve the effect of tightening the waist and abdomen. However, it should be noted that people with lumbar muscle strain, spinal injuries, osteoporosis and the elderly are not suitable for this exercise. In addition, before hula hooping, you should do some stretching exercises to stretch your ligaments and avoid sprains.

The above are the dangers of hula hooping, but hula hooping still has its benefits, so we must pay attention to both sides of everything and not only focus on one side. We still need to pay attention to some. You can hula hoop appropriately, but moderation is more important, and you need to pay attention to the right degree. Losing weight is a common thing nowadays. We need to understand its two sides and treat it correctly.
