To lose belly fat ^{& overall body fat} with a Hula-Hoop

Renee,

The hula hoop doesn't have to be weighted

Adrian Bryant | 02.09.09 - 5:37 pm

For the hula hooping exercises, does the hula hoop have to be weighted? And if so, which weight would you recomend? 1lb? 3lb? 5lb?

Renee | 02.08.09 - 6:56 pm

Tuba,

CLA burns fat all over your body period but if you're skinny already and have justa few fat pounds to lose then you'll need more than CLA to burn fat so Do a fat los plan like this one here

Adrian Bryant | 09.16.08 - 3:30 pm

thank you so much for the help
one question, does the CLA pills burn he fat in ur belly and that it? cause thats all i need im already skinny but i have fat in my stomach

tuba | 09.12.08 - 7:34 pm

Brian,

Hula-Hooping alone will not get rid of belly fat so Look at how to really lose belly fat fast

Adrian Bryant | 08.26.08 - 8:23 pm

my problem is that all the fat that i gain is in my stomache area .. this hula hoop thing isnt helping alot .. can u find me a faster way please ?
thanks

Brian | 08.26.08 - 7:41 pm

Tala,

You'd be better off doing this diet and workout plan here because...

The workout there will burn more belly fat calories than hula hooping and when you look at that diet - use the 5 meals a day option and...

Over the next 5 days - you can also eat a higher protein diet where only 20-to-40% of your calories come from carbs to speed up weight loss - See all weight loss foods here and...

Look at the 8 tips here for losing belly fat and...

I would still only do the broomstick exercise only 3x a week at the most

Adrian Bryant | 07.31.08 - 8:39 pm

Hey Adrian. How are you?
It’s me again, Tala.

Oh my god, I just got back form holiday and everyone is saying I have put on weight. Around 3-5kg. eeek!
u know those pics i sent u a coupla months ago? well now Im slightly bigger around my waist and my love handles are so much bigger!

I now realise more than ever that I am apple shaped. I have a nice figure. Or so I heard from just yesterday. and this was after my weight gain. But that’s only cos I was wearing a top that cleverly disguised my big belly.

Im now a larger figure 8. if you get what I mean?
I want to change that. I like my figure, but I want it to be a slender figure 8.

Anyway, a bit drastic I know. but I need to lose a lot of belly fat and the huge love handles in like erm..5 days.

U say that you will be able to see a difference in your belly in 5days if we hula hoop for 30mins.

So now what I am asking you is...

Is hula - hooping for 30 minutes + broom exercise (5 x day) ok to do?

Please let me know if this is bad for me (as in extremely bad – fatal?) lol

I will only be doing it this intense for a week. Maybe two at the most. Is ot ok for me to to this?

WILL THIS HELP ME TO REDUCE MY WAIST SIZE?

Recap:
I am 160cm in height and weigh 61-62/63kg

Please reply. Thanks!

Ps. You told me to do the broom exercise only 2-3 times a week last time. Why cant I do it every day? AT LEAST every other day?

Tala | 07.31.08 - 10:03 am

Stefan,

The short answer is... YES you will lose your love handles but it'll take some time because you may not be that overweight at 134 pounds so...

This plan will help you lose overall body fat & love handles faster

Adrian Bryant | 07.31.08 - 8:29 pm

So If i hulahoop everyday 30 minutes and eat about 1500 calories a day I will lose my little love handles?
In how many weeks?
I just want to slender and slim again.
im 134 pounds.


Stefan | 07.30.08 - 10:17 pm

Brianna,

Do this fast weight loss diet and... Do this fast weight loss workout to look better on the first day of school

Adrian Bryant | 07.28.08 - 8:21 am

Well I'm and 170 pound 14 year old and I have ugly fat on my stomach and thighs.I don't start school til september and i was wondering how could i lose that to look nice on that first day of school??

Brianna | 07.28.08 - 8:17 am

KAy,

Pick one weight scale and stick with it or you'll drive yourself crazy and instead focusing on the Weight loss drink - Focus on other long term weight loss methods

Adrian Bryant | 07.26.08 - 9:29 pm

I am 15 and was 196 but when i lost 3lbs and checked on my scale at home i was 193 and went to the doctors and they weighed me and i weighed 199. and the nurse said it could be muscle but i dont understand at all. but i want to try that water weight drink tht jillian gave but where can i get dandelion root tea at?

KAy | 07.26.08 - 2:38 pm

adria,


watch this youtube vid on losing belly fat and/or... read how to lose belly fat & get abs

Adrian bryant | 06.26.08 - 8:43 pm

i am 14 years old and i weight 138.

i dont have a lot of fat but i am very muscular so i dont want to build up muscle i just want to get rid of the fat on my belly and inner thighs. is this the right exercise for me and how long unitl i see big changes? (i have a family reunion in 2 weeks so i would like to see big changes by then) what would be best for my inner thighs?

adria | 06.26.08 - 2:52 pm

Marina,

Your weight is fine! and if you're concerned about your body image - Do body sculpting exercises instead

Adrian Bryant | 06.20.08 - 5:37 pm

im 12 yrs old and i weigh 127
 i'm 5'5
 is my wieght healthy or am i overwieght

nisha,

The hula hoop & stepper are the same thing because they both burn fat all over your body so if you prefer the stepper - then do that and don't count the calories you burn at work towards weight loss because your body is probably used to your 8-hour work schedule so your body doesn't burn as many calories when you're at work

Adrian Bryant | 06.10.08 - 7:04 pm

i CANT hula hoop!!
i feel really frustrated right now.i so prefer doin the mini stepper,,is it the same?if so then how many steps should i do?im trying to complete 10,000 a day.
also i wanted to ask,,im at work 8 hours a day and though i dont move around a lot i am on my feet all day..am i stil burning calories?
please help!
i look so fat!

nisha | 06.10.08 - 3:03 pm

Maria,

"Is it necessarily a bad thing if I 'overtrain'?" -- YES! but if you're only going do this for 2 weeks you may be able to get away with this but you don't need to train harder but smarter so do this fat burning workout instead and you're already doing the Mon,Wed,Fri part anyway and you can do the walking on your off days and...

You can throw out the hula hoop exercise - a lot of people think the hula hoop is mainly for losing belly fat which it does but the hula hoop workout is simply another fat burning cardio workout that burns fat all over your body and since you're doing the Fast weight loss workouts and walking - you're already doing fat loss workouts so there's no need to kill yourself with extra cardio and...

Don't do the love handle brrom exercise everyday - Just do it 2-to-3 times a week for 3-to-4 sets of 8-to-12 reps on each side and once the broom gets easy.. Use a pair of 1-to-5 pound dumbbells and...

You also don't need to do the flabby arm workout since...

#1) your flabby arms are flab that can be burned off with the nes (smarter) weight loss plan I gave you and...

#2) you're already working your flabby arms with Fast weight loss workouts #1 & #2 anyway and...

As for your diet - Go back and try this diet again -I've updated it a little bit to accomodate everybody.

You no longer have to drink protein shakes but you can subsitute the protein shakes for a another source 100 calorie protein source like nuts, fish, chikcen, or other lean meats.

"Is this possible in two weeks?" -

The truth is that you'll probably won't lose that much fat because you're NOT THAT OVERWEIGHT (you're 5-to-10 pounds overweight at the most) but i do think you'll see changes in your body figure due to slight gains in muscle

If you still need help - just keep sending in those questions

Adrian Bryant | 06.07.08 - 5:34 pm

Yes ADrian. I weigh 60kg and my height is 5’2.5...

Is it necessarily a bad thing if I 'overtrain'?

I’m a young women but I wouldn’t say I’m entirely fit. But if I need to lose the inches, I will try and do whatever it takes to. Especially when time is not on my side!

I will be:

1) Walking for half an hour to an hour in the morning (EVERYDAY)

2) Hula hoop for 30 minutes. Do the love handle broom exercise. Repeat hula hoop for another 30 minutes (TWICE A DAY - EVERY DAY)

3) Do your NEW fat loss workout (#1 on Monday & Friday, #2 on Wednesday)

• To tone up my arms, I will be doing your flabby arm exercises every other day

In terms of my calorie intake, I tried the plan you suggested but failed miserably!

I can never seem to have more than one vegetable or fruit before a meal and I feel that I tend to eat the same amount I would eat anyway regardless of whether I eat the fruits/veges beforehand.

The protein powder also tastes foul which is why I don’t drink it anymore.

Currently, I would say I am within 1200 cals a day, however, I only eat 3 (or 4) times a day, which is bad I know, because it slows down my metabolism rate, but I find splitting up calories into 5-6 time a day just means I eat OVER my calorie allowance at each snack/meal, hence over eating!

Adrian, I understand that obviously you can’t tell me EXACTLY how much I could lose in two weeks but I’m really desperate! I prefer to lose the inches on my body first (for my birthday) and think about weight loss afterwards.

If I follow this plan, approximately how much do you think I could lose. 1 inch? 2 inch?

The reason im doing so much is because I NEED to have lost the inches on my waist. AT LEAT 3-4 INCHES ON MY WAIST and I WANT MY LOVE HANDLES TO DISAPPEAR!

Is this possible in two weeks?

Please reply and sorry the for long post!

GOD BLESS YOU x

Maria | 06.07.08 - 2:39 pm

Sana,

Even if this did work - most of your weight loss would still come from basic diet & exercise and the maker's of this product would charge a whole lot more than 49.95!

Adrian bryant | 06.07.08 - 12:12 pm

I just came across this website Adrian (http://www.trimgel.net/index-en/) and was wondering whther you have used it? (probably not LOL) or maybe do you know anyone else that has used it and benefited? It sounds too good to be true to be honest. Do you know of any possible side effects.what do you think?

Sana |   06.07.08 - 4:03 am

Maria,

i honestly can't tell you how many inches you may lose but all I can honestly tell you is that you will lose some inches doing this plan but i'm concerned that you may be overtraining (doing too much) - can you write out exactly what you'll be doing everyday?

And you may want to look into doing this fast weight loss diet to help with you losing fatty inches

Adrian bryant | 06.06.08 - 8:02 pm

Hiya,

I am around 36-38 inches around my waist and a lot more around my hips (& love handles area). I really want to nip in my waist (lose inches) and get rid of the love handles as they look very ugly, especially from the back. I am told that I have a nice figure. But these areas could do with improving to look even better. I am starting a plan on Monday. It is as follows. Please have a look:
1) Walking in the morning
2) NEW fat loss workout #1 AND #2 (accordingly to each day)
3) Hula hoop for half an hour - love handles broom exercise - hula hoop for half an hour (TWICE A DAY - MORNING AND EVENING)

I am desperately trying to lose the inches on my body and face for my 19th birthday bash coming up in just two weeks.

I NEED TO KNOW THOUGH…How many inches do you think I could lose by 19th of June, if I keep my calorie intake under control and do the above plan

Please reply as soon as possible

Thanks

MMaria | 06.06.08 - 7:18 am

Nisha,

the hula hooping and ab crawl are 2 differnent types of exercise.

The hula hoop is a cardio exercise that burns fat while the ab crawl is an exercise that tones your abs but you can do this fast weight loss workout here which has the ab crawl in the workout to burn fat and tone your abs at the same time

Adrian Bryant | 06.03.08 - 10:47 pm

hi adrian,

i really cant hula hoop!iv tried so many times and its realy annoying.i can do the abdominal crawls though.i can really feel it working my muscles so im pleased about that!i just wanted to ask,you say to do 30mins everyday on hula hoop.what distance would i have to cover doing ab crawls to do equivalent to 30mins hula hooping? please reply thanks

nisha | 06.03.08 - 10:15 am

Tala,

You can do the hula hoop workout but you want to mix up your workouts by doing something different so depending on how good or bad of shape you're in... You want do something different every 3 days-to-every-4 weeks so in your case - It may be okay to do everyday for 2 weeks and...

Try this fat burning workout sometimes to shock your body into losing fat and...

have you tried these flat ab exercises to lose inches and...

have you tried these ab exercises to reduce waist some?

Adrian Bryant | 05.31.08 - 2:23 pm

Ok adrian. Now my main priority is my arms and belly. I tried on various outfits and everyone commented that below my breasts i look good, but my 'broad shoulders' and my arms are quite big (kind of flabby - you've got my pictures)which brings down how I look. I was wondering whether I could do the hula hooping as my fat loss workout? or do I have to do other fat loss workouts too? Im doing hula hooping twice a day...where I hula hoop for abt 15 minutes and then do the love handle broom excercise and then the hula hooping another 15mins. But im worried whther iys ok for me to do this everyday. I want results within the next 2 weeks so is it ok if I do this every day? I really want to lose inches of my waist and get a flatter belly. when will I see results? And is there anything I can do for broad shoulders or is that hereditary? :s please reply honey. thanks

Tala | 05.31.08 - 7:05 am

Jhavline,

Watch this to get a flat tummy

Adrian Bryant | 05.25.08 - 10:35 pm

Ok i have done the love handle excercise...and trust me it is painful...now let me ask, you keep saying the hola hoop make u lose fat from all over...i dont want that..i just want to get rid of the love handle and have flatter tummy.....please give me the correct excercise for my options....i am 140, and 5'6' and age 22

jhavline |   05.25.08 - 6:14 pm

TALA,

The real answer to your question is... you can get flat abs,lose weight doing the hula hoop exercise for at least 20-to-30 min but at your weight...

I would do the last 10 pounds plan I snt you and you can still do the hula-hopp exercise as part of the plan but I would still expect to lose 10 pounds (with some belly fat) within 40 days

Adrian Bryant | 05.25.08 - 12:24 pm

Hey Adrian, Its Tala. I sent u my pictures last time and u commented saying that Im not that bad (ideal weight). I just discovered this part of your website! Went out and got myself a hulahoop and couldnt really do it at first, but after much hard work I have found that I can do up to 30secs-1min! (ok its not that much but its a big eachievmetn for me!) My question is, is it possible to get a flat and toned belly with just the hula hoop? How long do you think it would take to lose all my belly fat from looking at my pics? please reply x thanks Adrian

TALA |   05.25.08 - 5:03 am

Lisa,

This exercise is good for your love handles and it helps you lose weight all over your body if you do for at least 30 minutes at a time

Adrian bryant | 05.22.08 - 8:18 am

Adrian..Is this good for love handles too?

Lisa |   05.22.08 - 5:33 am

(girl) 10 years,

I don't know for sure but since you're younf I wouldn't go on any calorie restrictive diets to lose weight...

I would just focus on exercise and an increase in daily activity to lose weight but...

II don't even think you may need to lose weight

Adrian Bryant | 04.17.08 - 8:18 pm

yea i way 123 lbs and i want to lose some but im also tall for my age and i dont know if im supposed to ose it is it baby fat?

(girl) 10 years |   04.17.08 - 6:35 pm

jess,

Go here to see some of my videos on youtube and all of the tae-bo videos will help you lose weight- you just need to do a diffenret tae-bo tape every 4-to-6 weeks so you (and your body) don't get used to the same workout.

Adrian Bryant | 04.05.08 - 9:15 pm

thanks for the fabulous website... but i dont know why im not able to view some of the videos here including this hula hoop one....
can u tell me anywhere else i can watch these videos...
and also im thinking of buying tae bo billy blanks video.. which one should i buy...

jess | 04.05.08 - 1:58 am

Allison,

Doing the hula hoop exercise along with exercises for your love handles and... exercises for your abs will help you lose 4-to-5 inches off your waist in probably under 7 weeks but you'll lose inches much faster if you go on a fat loss plan while doing these exercises

Adrian bryant - weight loss |  03.26.08 - 10:24 pm

Hi.I was just wondering how long this would take for me to lose 4-5 inches from my stomach? Thanks

The hula hoop will make you lose fat all over your body and the TVA drill will make your belly flatter
Adrian Bryant - the guy who made NowLoss.com

If I do just this hula hoop workout once or maybe twice a day, do I still have to do the TVA exercise (the one where you have to draw your tummy in while breathing normally)?
Also, will this work for people who are borderline overweight? Because the girl in the video is pretty fit.
