mini-trampoline

[ShiningStarr]

So my mom bought this mini trampoline and has yet to try it out. I have been looking to find an exercise that I really like so that I can stick to it. Now I like to go jogging but have a hard time doing that with 2 kids (my husband is away right now) and I live in Maine and there is not a long jogging window available for outside jogging. OS I thought I would give this mini trampoline a try. I can just jog on that for 30 mins or more....what do you think?? Has anyone tried this??

Re: mini-trampoline

Google 'rebounding.' That is what exercise on a mini trampoline is called. It is handy because you can do it while watching the news, whatever. There are even videos to go alone with them!

Re: mini-trampoline

I always wanted one of these, there are weight restrictions on them though, i should have got one at my lowest and then i might not have put the weight back on

I hear it is very good form of exercise and its easy on the joints

I love my mini tramp! It is such a workout. There are a ton of workouts for it, and it gives you a great work out when done right. My abs always hurt so bad the next day. I have seen great results in my bum and legs as well. I love love love it, and hope you can create a great workout and love it just as much!!!! Good luck.

ps....gillian mckeen from you are what you eat swears that 15 minutes on the tramp is equivalent to an hour of jogging...just food for thought.....

pss....here are some videos.....

I just bought a Jumpsport rebounder with bungee cords. A few years ago I bought a cheap 20.00 mini tramp from Target. I could barely last a couple of minutes on it. Now my new rebouder, which cost 259.00, makes me feel light as a feather. Feels so good on my arthritic knees. I'm feeling stronger already. Rebounding is so good for you!
