Did you know that jumping on a trampoline (rebounding) is not only great fun for kids but amazing exercise for adults as well?
pin me for later!
““…for similar levels of heart rate and oxygen consumption, the magnitude of the biomechanical stimuli is greater with jumping on a trampoline than with running, a finding that might help identify acceleration parameters needed for the design of remedial procedures to avert deconditioning in persons exposed to weightlessness. “
”
Yes, you read that right! According to NASA, rebounding has greater exercise benefits than running!!!!
Whoohoo!! Right!? Exercise that is loads of fun? I'm in! Not to mention you can do it from home, inside or outside, any time of the day, and rebounders are easy to tuck away, especially if they fold in half as mine does.
move over kiddo's, mammas taking over your trampoline!

I love rebounding. Between the great benefits of rebounding, the fact that it’s easy on my knees (which I damaged running), easy and convenient to do at home as well as being truly fun, rebounding is by far my favorite form of regular exercise!
Plus, you can find all kinds of great, FREE workouts on YouTube! Bonus!
I currently have a ReboundAIR which I have loved and has served me well but when it comes time to replace it I’ll be getting a rebounder from Bellicon.
