In ancient Greece, people would tie a ring around their waist to lose weight. This kind of thing was also very popular in Britain in the14th century, but doctors at that time accused it of causing heart attacks and spinal displacement. /kloc-At the beginning of the 8th century, western navigators arrived in Hawaii and found that the local hula dance was consistent with the posture of turning the waist circle, so this thing got the name "Hula Hoop".
