I don't know... Ehr.... uhm..... I'm pretty hard core and the last kid I took wanted to go home too soon and started crying.

Here's what it's like though just to get the feel of it..

First time I tried video hooping. Slow night.... Lots of wind and no bugs but the floats look cool and I'm averaging 45 feet of rope in about fifteen seconds which aint half bad.

Also a lot of physical exertion is in your head, the left side of your brain tries to hold you back, worn you before you really are in trouble. Work through it, do as the United States Marine Corps does and view pain as weakness leaving the body

After seeing your video, I will hold the camera, Oh yeah and I can wipe myself too...

Never done any hooping. But here is what i do on long hard backpacking trips. I carry some honey sticks or small jam packets. Take one once every hour or so. For drink i would use gatoraid powder but mix only 1\3 as it says. The SAR guys that i talked to said it works the best for them on long days and when they find the people dehadrated. It always worked for me on 15-20 mile days. Breakfast is always a bagel some sausage cheese and a tomato(the first and second day) Another thing to take is a bananna(you can also get the dry ones) Before you leave two or three table spoones of peanut butter goes a long way.

I drink beer while hooping with 4 hoops and have never bonked. Smart carbs and sugars.
