When you bounce on a mini trampoline not only are you stimulating circulation and cleansing of your lymphatic system you are also building muscles throughout your entire body. When you bounce on your mini trampoline your every time you come in contact with the mat every muscle in your body reflexively contracts. This in includes all the tiny connector like the ones between your ribs. This contraction of all the connector muscles helps to rapidly tone your body in a way that almost no other exercise match. When I first started bounding on my mini trampoline I was amazed that after only a few weeks of rebounding I could see a noticeable improvement in my muscle tone. A side benefit of strengthening all these tiny muscles throughout your body is that it ends up being much easier to maintain good posture. This was great for me as posture has been something I have had to work on most of my life.

One of the coolest things about owning a rebounder is the fact that when you exercise on a mini trampoline it feels more like fun than “real” exercise. Even after having owned my mini trampoline for over five years now and exercising on it nearly every day, I am still amazed how much just plain fun is!

Often times I will put on a mix CD of songs and listen to a three or four of them while rebounding and the time literally seems to fly by. Before I know it I have been on the mini trampoline for half an hour and I am drenched in sweat, having completed a killer workout

For me finding an exercise that is actually fun to do and doesn’t really feel like exercise has been key to me sticking with it.

Daily aerobic exercise is one a fundamental keys to sustained health. Unfortunately with our modern lifestyles many of us have found ourselves becoming increasingly sedentary. We get up drive to work, sit in front of a computer for most of the day, come home, eat dinner, watch some TV and then go to bed. Contrast this to our nomadic ancestors who spent much of their waking time hunting or gathering food. Our bodies evolved over millions of years to function at their best with the aid physical movement!

So the question is how do set up our lives in a way that encourages us to move more often? One thing that is really easy to do and is surprisingly effective is to keep your mini trampoline set up in the living room or somewhere else where you are likely to walk by it on a regular basis. Whenever you walk by it take a minute of two to jump on it. By doing this you are getting your blood circulating and increasing your heart rate even if you don’t jump that long, by taking lots these little exercise breaks throughout the day they will add up over time and naturally lead to better health.
