Trampoline Weight Loss

!±8± Trampoline Weight Loss

Can your backyard trampoline help you to lose weight? You bet it can!

Just 10 minutes per day on a trampoline will accelerate weight loss and burn as many calories as a 30 minute jog!

You do not need to do flips and outrageous moves either.

Simply learning 5 or 6 basic moves and putting them into a routine is all that is required.

Here is an example work out on the trampoline.

Start with 20 warm up bounces, followed by 10 bounces getting higher and higher with each bounce, then 10 low bounces and again, 10 bounces getting higher and higher.

Do a Tuck Jump, Straddle Jump and Pike Jump one after the other, take a few bounces to recover and repeat 4 times.

Do a seat drop, followed by a tuck jump, followed by a seat drop, followed by a straddle jump, followed by a seat drop followed by a pike jump. Repeat this 4 times.

Do a Seat drop to front drop to feet.

Do a seat drop half twist out.
Do swivel hips - repeat several times

Finish with a routine.

Seat Drop
Tuck Jump
1/2 Twist Jump

OR

Pike Jump
Seat Drop
Swivel Hips

The benefits of doing the above on your trampoline every day when combined with maintaining a healthy diet is not only weight loss, but overall toning. It is excellent for cellulite when combined with drinking lots of water. It also controls depression with amazing success. This is because it has been medically proven that it is impossible to feel depressed when jumping on a trampoline. Long term use will deter depression forever.

As an exercise apparatus, nothing beats the backyard trampoline, or a mini-rebounder (if you do not have a suitable garden for a larger trampoline).

Of course, all these moves need to be learned correctly for both safety and to ensure you get the best results from your trampoline exercise.

Mini Trampoline Exercises

!±8± Mini Trampoline Exercises

Here are some mini trampoline exercises you can try to help you get a good workout from you trampoline. Before starting any workout, make sure you always stretch out your body to prevent any injuries. I will explain a few different types of exercises starting with the most simple.

The Bounce

This is when you are first starting to use the mini trampoline or warming up for the hop. Basically you want to start with a small bounce where your feet are still touching the trampoline. This is ideal if you just want something to do while watching T.V. and not have to focus on your balance. It's also good to do this to loosen up your joints and body in the morning.

The Hop

Ideally, this is the type of exercise you want to be doing on a daily basis. Your hop should be about 1foot off the trampoline. When landing, make sure you have your knees slightly bent, just like how you would land when jumping on a normal floor. Your arms should ideally swing up. Again, just like how you would normally do a jump on the ground. Because you will naturally try to prevent yourself from landing off the side, you will be increasing your sense of balance as well.

The Jump

This involves jumping high off the rebounder (Ideal for bigger trampolines for safety issues). You don't have to be jumping as high as they do in the Olympics of course, yes, it's an Olympic sport. All you need to do is jump to the highest point that you're capable of jumping. This will produce a more intense workout. Your body can take up to 8 G's of force so you don't have to worry about your body not being able to handle the pressure unless if you jump onto the trampoline from 3 story building (not advisable at all).

Variations

This is where you would start with the bounce, gradually move to the hop, then back to the bounce and so on. While doing the bounce, you can do things with your arms as well to increase your heart rate such as spreading them out to your sides and moving them around in circular motions.

Deep Landing

Normally, when you land on the mini trampoline, you will have a slight bend in your knees, then spring back up again. With a deep landing, what you basically do is squat down when you land. This will make it harder to jump back up, therefore, giving you a better leg workout. You won't be able to do too many of these so pace yourself.

There are dozens of other mini trampoline exercises that you can do. The goal here is to make if fun and enjoyable. That way, you will keep up your exercise routine.
