A method of exercising and various exercise devices. The exercise device includes a substantially circular hoop, the hoop comprising a hollow chamber for allowing a member to move within the chamber. One of at least one handle or at least one mechanism is attached to the hoop for supporting the hoop at a location on a user's body. At least one member is disposed in the hollow chamber, wherein the hoop is postionable around a portion of the user's body. The exercise device can also include at least one substantially circular casing comprising a hollow chamber for allowing a member to move within the chamber and a centrally disposed through opening. A handle rod at least partially disposed within the opening, and at least one member is moveably disposed in the hollow chamber. The casing is removably fixed to the handle rod so that movement of the handle rod causes movement of the at least one member within the casing. The exercising method includes positioning a hoop device about a portion of a user's body, securing the hoop device on the user using at least one securing mechanism which fixes the hoop device with respect to the portion of the user's body, moving the hoop device with corresponding movement of the user's body so as to cause a weight disposed in a hollow chamber of the hoop device to move about.
