Mini Trampolines – Exercises for Fitness
If you've been talking to your doctor or personal trainer about ways that you can continue your exercise routine, even when you can't get to the gym, it's likely that they may have mentioned the health benefits of a trampoline. Although you might be tempted to dismiss the trampoline as only a kid's toy, it's important to realize that this simple rebounding machine has been used to get military personnel in shape and ready for combat situations since World War II. Even though full sized backyard trampolines are becoming more popular, it's important to remember that you can still lose weight with a mini trampoline as well.
The advantage of having a smaller trampoline is that you don't have to worry nearly as much about installing additional trampoline accessories for safety. Whereas full sized trampolines that are being stored outdoors require <a href="http://www.trampolinepartscenter.com">trampoline pads</a>, trampoline enclosures, and trampoline covers simply to make them safe for people of all ages to use, mini trampolines are ready to bounce on a soon as you take them out of the box. If you're interested in being able to burn calories while you watch television, listen to music, or put the kids down for a nap, here are some gentle exercises to get you started.
The first thing you should do when you get ready for an exercise session on your trampoline is take off your shoes and socks. Although this might feel a bit awkward, it will actually make it easier for you to keep your balance while on the trampoline mat, which is often more slippery than you might think. When you're standing on the trampoline, take a few deep breaths, and walk in place for a little while, lifting your knees high, just to get your blood pumping and your muscles warmed up.
Start your workout by using the basic bounce, a position that is the initial stance and foundational action of the rebounder workout. Position yourself in the middle of your mini trampoline, making sure that your feet are a little wider than hip-width, and that your knees are slightly bent. Begin to bounce very slightly while keeping your feet pushed down into the mat. If you need to, keep a hand on a chair or nearby wall for balance. When you feel comfortable with the rhythm of the bounce, it's time to let your feet lift off the trampoline. Bounce for several minutes, or less if you feel winded. This will work out your leg muscles and core, even though it feels easy.
