Rebounding can change your quality of life!

What if I told you that there’s one activity you can do to improve your body composition(reducing fat and increasing musculature), promote immune system function, give you energy, keep your heart healthy, improve lymph flow, and even protect you against cognitive decline as you age? As you can see from the title that activity is rebounding. But what exactly is that? Well it is:

Jumping on a trampoline

As you read from the introduction, jumping on a trampoline can benefit your life in so many ways. But where can you find a trampoline? Well, you have multiple options, you can go to trampoline parks if there are any near you. Or you could be fortunate enough to have a big trampoline in your backyard, or you could do what I did, which is to buy a mini trampoline. They are portable and can done even if you don’t have too much space at home.

How to Start

If you have not done any sort of resistance training or cardiovascular training prior to starting on your rebounding routine I would suggest to start with about 15 min 3 times per week, and let your ligaments, joints and muscles acclimated to your new exercise routine. Then you can build up to 30 min 3 times per week. You can increment it until you are doing 30 min of rebounding 5 times per week. If you are already in good physical condition, you can decide as to how much would be effective for you, keep in mind that if you have other types of exercise to keep in mind so that you don’t overtrain yourself. I workout 3 times per week on my resistance training, and another 3 days on the trampoline. So I workout 6 times per week and it actually helps with recovery because cardiovascular exercise helps with blood flow, therefore your tissue can get nutrient rich blood delivered to them.

Where do I get a mini-trampoline / rebounder?

You can find this on sport stores near you like Dick’s sporting goods, or even Walmart. You can also get them online. You can buy them on amazon as well.
