I saw a YMCA personal trainer having people using hula hoops for training purposes. I’m positive it wasn’t a game or something. This was done inbetween sets of walking lunges with 10 pound DB’s. If I wanted certification to be a personal trainer here, it’d be a class taught by this man (weighing in at a mighty 160lbs @ 5’11). Can I get a WTF?
Legitimate hula hoops.
In that first pic, that girl he’s talking to looks doable.
That is all.
THe one with the white hair? I think you’re wrong there.
Yeah she is hottttt, I would skeet all over those wrinkles.
Yeah she is a GILF!!!

She had a great ass and decent body.
I think he’s talking about the girl with the dark hair. But it doesn’t really matter, cause the grandma is way hotter anyway.
another thread involving picture taking at the gym.
Who cares just lift.
That is ridiculous. He should have had the unfit and geriatrics doing squats until their vertebrae blew out like clock springs.
Training a client at their level of ability is for schmucks, know nothings and pussies. Hardcore motherfuckers that injure people who come to them for help rule!

Think about it: If your a outashape, middle aged, house wife witch trainer would you pick. The trainer with freakinhuge arms who is “ewey” and makes you do cardio complexes till you throw up, or the guy thats “kinda hott” that has you hoola hoopin everyday? Looks like this guy is just trien to make things fun for these chicks, and keep clientele around in a shitty economy.

I guess you aren’t a trainer are you? Getting older clients to do anything is a challenge, so I can understand why this particular trainer would use these techniques (although not my personal choice for this population).
You need to realize that the average person getting trained in this setting usually has had multiple injuries, may be going through menopause, may have had cancer, a heart attack or stroke, diabetes, suffers from insomnia, depression and/or anxiety and eats like crap most of the time.
So what would you suggest in these cases? Load them up on creatine and get them to do heavy barbell squats until they puke?
hula hoops are more common than you think in gyms. plus, a lot of the ones i’ve seen younger people use are weighted and are actually pretty hard to keep going.
Looks fun to me…hence him doing it with older clients. They get bored quickly if they just sit on machines here and there for reps. Brings back old memories at recess as well.
They do that as part of the national UFIT program to get people active and doing something… its not as intense as jumping rope, but people have more fun doing it… plus, who doesnt love watching girls twisting around at the waist…
What happens if they are too big for the hula hoop? Do they come in xxl? Do you use it as a weight belt?
Young man, theres no need to feel down.
