The Truth About "Weighted" Hula Hoops The word "weighted" can be a bit confusing in terms of hula hoops. Weighted simply means that the hoop is heavier than your typical Dollar Store or Walmart hoop. Don't get a 3 pound or heavier hoop! Even a 3-pounds is VERY bad for you and can cause permanent damage to your spine. Just Google, "Hula Hoops How Heavy is Too Heavy" - and you can read SCIENCE and DOCTOR backed research on the subject. Advising against a heavier hoop is not just our opinion, it's backed by research from doctors, physical therapists and lots of interviews with people in the medical and fitness profession. The people selling 3-7 pound padded hoops are Chinese companies that don't care about your health or well-being, they are only here to make MONEY. I implore to NOT seek out a heavy hoop, you will regret it for the rest of your life!   Canyon Hoops Hoop Specifications Hoops are 38" or 42" in diameter.

Best hoop I've found.....
Can you hear the sound of my swoosh :). I stayed home from work anticipating the arrival of my hoop, from previous reviews I knew it had to sit a while to unravel- so I "patiently" waited. To speed up the process I used a hair dryer to warm it. Once it was done I connected the tube to the black adapter included, and I was good to go. I have the large version (I'm considered to be plus size), for me personally I like that is a little heavier than most hoops. After a few rounds you really began to feel it. It will be a regular part of my fitness routine

Not as hooped up about my hoop this time!
This is the second Canyon hoop I have purchased. The first one was very easy for me to use, and held up very well despite leaving out in the backyard, but finally, the elements did it in. I don't recall having to put it together when I first got it. If I did the instructions were clear and no issues. My recent purchase of a Canyon Hoop did not go as well. The instructions were confusing. Getting answers were slow. It may have gotten a little warped in the process of getting it ready for use and also does not seem as weighted as my first hoop. It is much harder for me to use. I keep dropping it when hooping.

Get this hoop for first timers
I ordered the canyon weighted hoop 42" hoop on a Saturday and it came 9 days later . That pissed me off . But when it finally came and I tried it I was in love with it . I had to let it thaw out over night in a heated room before I could use it . You can blow dry it for faster results of loosening the hard plastic . It took me a few tries before I was able to balance it on my waist for more than 2 seconds . I'm now up to 5 minutes straight . I wrapped my waist in seran wrap and played music I hula hooped for 20 minutes tonight and plan to do 20 minutes every night . I also found it helpful while balancing the hoop to suck my stomach in and gently toss my butt . I feel the burn already . I love this hula . The seran wrap was soaked when I took it off my waist . I highly recommend this hoop . Don't get the hoop with the ridges in it . This hoop is smooth but hurts when you first start. After I learned how to swing my hips to the flow of the hoop it doesn't hurt any more . I love this hoop

Should have got the smaller size
It arrived quickly & expanded & snapped into place, instructions were easy. It's a great product, but I should have ordered the small adult instead of regular adult, I'm 5'5" 160 lbs, so ladies take this into consideration, & get the best size for you

Hop into this hoop!
I almost returned this because it was not expanding- even after following the directions to a tee. I pulled it slightly apart with the slightest bit of pressure and it finally started unraveling. I’m soooo glad I didn’t return this. It is sooo much fun and the big hoop is perfect for my lean 120lb 5’4” frame. I use it when I start to get cold in my apartment instead of turning the heat up. I get exercise and save on electric bills. I’m also getting creative and doing all kinds of floor exercises with the hoop. LOVING IT!

Very nice hoop!!!
I'm new to hula hooping. This is a really nice hoop. It's very sturdy and nicely made, the color is beautiful. I had an issue, contacted the company and they were so quick to respond and trouble shoot with me. I was totally impressed. Once I get good at hooping, I'll buy another from them for sure. Oh and I received it earlier than expected too.
