I have been trying to knee hoop for a while now, but whenever i get the hang of it my knees hurt so bad i cant even continue! The next day sure enough great big bruises appear. Is this unusual? And most importantly does it ever stop hurting/bruising? Or is there anything im doing wrong or could change to make it better? Please give me any info you have because i really love to knee hoop :)
