When I got a mini trampoline as a gift from our partner for our anniversary, I was excited; I’m always searching for new possibilities to motivate & improve our workouts, since I exercise every day, the sessions can become repetitive & lackluster! Exercising on a mini-trampoline is both fun & beneficial.
These smaller varieties of the backyard trampoline are called rebounders & are designed recognizably for individual fitness training.
They are set low to the ground, providing a great deal of stability & minimizing the opportunity of flying off & getting mangled. The act of jumping on a rebounder is a full-body workout. The movement requires the use of multiple muscles simultaneously, engaging everything from abs & glutes to leg & back muscles. This type of workout helps to build a strong core. It is an especially great workout for someone of our age. I’m now in our mid-fifties & realize that it’s crucial to focus on exercises that improve bone density. Studies have shown that rebounders promote higher bone density at the hip & spine, strengthening the bones & reducing the opportunity of developing osteoporosis, but plus, as I get older, there will be a growing risk of getting mangled due to a fall. Good balance is essential. I study a learn confirming that 14 weeks of rebounder exercise improves the ability to regain balance. It reinforces better coordination & motor skills. I like that it’s a cardio hobby that gets our heart pumping without damaging impact on our joints.The repeated tensing & releasing of the muscles is beneficial for circulation. I like to play our favorite tunes, clear our head & bounce on the trampoline.
