reat time jumping on a trampoline, but don't make the mistake of thinking that this is simply a kid's toy. The fact is that adults are quickly learning that trampolines are not only fun, but that trampoline exercises are a great way to get fit. If you've ever attempted an exercise routine, chances are you quit because it became boring. It's probably the main reason people don't stick to them. But since trampolines are so much fun, there's a better chance you'll stay with the routine. And you'll be losing weight and toning your muscles without the aid of a bunch of other exercise equipment. Here's why trampoline exercises are so good. First you get a great cardiovascular workout. Much like jogging, you'll get your heart pumping and you'll strengthen many of your vital organs. Your metabolism increases, making losing weight that much easier. Plus your blood flow increases. This results in more endurance, and also helps your body get rid of a lot of toxins. Your leg muscles will tone up quickly because of the constant jumping motion. If you'd rather work on the muscles in your back, simply keep your legs straight when you jump. You can strengthen your arms as well by adding some arm motions, such as swinging them every time your feet touch. And to quickly increase strength, you can use ankle weights or put a small dumbbell in each hand. Don't do this however until you've been on your routine for a while. People with back problems often find trampoline exercises helpful. The jumping motion tends to release strain or tension that may be building up. And these exercises are low impact, which means you're not putting any additional stress on your muscles or joints. If you've been jogging but find that the constant pounding is causing pain in your knees, ankles or back, a trampoline is a great substitute. This is even more beneficial if you are just getting back into exercise |
