Mini trampoline
workouts--why they're work and why they're unique
Bouncing on a rebounder is unique
because:
A rebounder is comparable to a mini trampoline. It provides the jumper
with basically the same great benefits as a trampoline. You can use it
indoors
and it takes up very little space.
Rebounding has very little "wear and tear" on a person's body. The
springsensure a soft bounce which absorbs over 85% of the shock so it is
a very low impact form of exercise and, therefore, more people can
benefit from it.
With rebounding every cell in your body benefits from the exercise. This
is because the cells in your body go up with you when you bounce and
come down
with you when you land. You become weightless for a fraction of a second
when you are in the air, which means your cells float without pressure
or stress. Then when you land, you increase your weight and the cells
experience extra pressure. Your cells loosen at the top and tense at the
bottom. While bouncing, your cells go through this many times per
minute, which causes the cells to be massaged and exercised, both
benefits to your body. Additional positive factors are that circulation
is being increased and there is more nourishment and detoxification to
your body, greater
relaxation and increased strength. In addition bouncing on a rebounder
can be fun (even for an adult) and less tedious than other forms of
exercise.
Following are some helpful explanations to the mechanics of gravity
while using a rebounder. Exercise generally involves three forces going
in three different directions. This can be explained by gravity pushes
down, acceleration pushes back, and deceleration pushes forward. These
energies are vertically aligned while the body bounces on a rebounder.
Vertical
consistency is more effective with rebounding because the forces are
only up and down (accelerating and decelerating).
The downward force of gravity and deceleration impact with the mat so
the mat absorbs the shock and both the springs and mat stretch to absorb
the force. The full body is strengthened by the impact more than with
any other type of exercise. Acceleration is completely used at the top
of the bounce and gravity overturns the direction of the energy and as
the body's mass begins to fall, deceleration increases the impact at the
bottom of the bounce.
In physical activity, you normally use as much energy decelerating as
you do accelerating. However, by bouncing on a rebounder, the force is
recycled
upwards at the bottom of a rebound bounce instead of being used up. The
reason for this is that the mat and springs are being stretched to the
max, then the downward forces are reversed causing acceleration. So the
rebounder works like a power tool. This makes for a longer lasting
positive result, and we can just keep going and going!
