How long is a 10-minute hula hoop equivalent to running?
Ten minutes of hula hoop is equivalent to running 1 hour. Turning a hula hoop for an hour means running for three hours.

Practitioners can choose according to their own needs, or they can use rhythmic gymnastics rings instead, which has low requirements for venue equipment. Practitioners make the hula hoop rotate around the body by moving around the circle of limbs or other parts of the body.

The longer a circle rotates around a certain part of the body, or the more times a person rotates at the same time, the higher its level.
