Of all the fitness challenges I've tried in the name of my job as a Health and Fitness Writer, using a weighted hula hoop every day for a week has, weirdly enough, actually been one of the toughest.
If you're anything like me, you might associate hula hooping with being in primary school - and, aside from a very short (and unsuccessful) flirtation with one when my daughter was little, that's where I thought it would end.
