Make Your Family Laugh While You Exercise?

As I was walking around the health food store today, I noticed that they were selling Hoola Hoops. These are the adjustable ones that can be big or made smaller. The big size is for beginners who haven't learned how and have not been exercising. As the hoop is adjusted smaller, you have to move faster to keep it going and therefore get more cardio. The Hoola Hoop brought back childhood memories and I remembered it being fun. At home I decided to start with a medium size since I already had a vivid memory of how to do it. Its like riding a bike. Once you have done it before, you can easily pick it up again and go. As soon as I started doing the exercise, a couple of family members started cracking up. I saw them getting some good laughs while I exercised. I guess I looked pretty funny. I noticed that after just 5 minutes my heart was pumping and I could feel that my abs had been working. It will be an interesting experiment to see if I do lose inches off my waist with the Hoola Hoop and make my family laugh.
