Rebounding Results: 5 Ways Trampoline Fitness Changes Your Body

If you’re looking for a fun, low-impact workout that you can do at home, rebounding or mini trampoline fitness might fit the bill.

You can bounce straight up and down for a gentle workout or perform exercises like knee raises and jumping jacks to really get your heart pumping.

We all know trampolining is fun and exhausting, but let's look at some realistic rebounding results you might see after a month or so (and beyond):

Weight loss

After a month of regular rebounding workouts, you may notice that you’ve dropped a few pounds.

Trampoline fitness can help you burn between 8 and 15 calories per minute – which makes it an extremely efficient form of exercise. In just 30 minutes, you could burn 450 calories or more.

Rebounding workouts have been shown to be about 68 percent more efficient than jogging, and 10 percent more effective at burning fat than running.

However, all of those burned calories won’t mean much if you don’t make the right decisions in the kitchen. Remember, fat loss requires a consistent calorie deficit.

With the right diet and exercise routine, it’s safe and realistic for most people to lose about a pound per week.

Increased circulation

You may not see or even feel it, but as the weeks go on, your rebounding workouts will lead to better circulation.

Just like other forms of cardio, rebounding improves your blood flow, which can help prevent health problems down the line.

Improving your circulation can also slow the formation of cellulite. One study found that rebounding a few times per week reduced women’s cellulite by 26 percent.

Bouncing up and down on the trampoline even stimulates lymphatic drainage.

Your lymphatic system removes toxins and waste from your body. If it isn’t working at its best, toxins can build up in your body and cause problems like infection, impaired immune response, and even cancer.

When you’re jumping on the trampoline, experts estimate that your lymphatic fluid flows twice as fast as when you’re walking on the ground.

So if you want to detoxify your body and improve your immune function overall — skip the juice cleanse and give rebounding a shot, instead!

Better endurance

Trampolining is an intense cardio workout that’s on par with running. It gets your heart pumping and increases your oxygen uptake just as much as running and jogging, if not more.

One study showed that rebounding increases your VO2 max, an important indicator of cardiovascular endurance, about 5 percent more than running.

Having a higher VO2 max can improve your exercise performance, decrease your risk of developing dementia, and even increase your lifespan.

So if you want to improve your stamina and become healthier overall, consider adding rebounding to your fitness routine.

Stronger muscles

Rebounding is a full-body workout that will strengthen your body from head to toe.

After a month or two of trampoline workouts, you’ll probably notice significant strength gains in a number of muscle groups.

Rebounding works your glutes, thighs, hamstrings, back, and core, and even your pelvic floor muscles.

If you add in medicine balls or wrist weights, you can also build upper body strength and tone your arms, making trampolining a great all-around workout.

Just don’t expect to get jacked or develop a rippling six-pack from trampoline workouts alone.

Better balance and coordination

In addition to being low-impact and good for strength and endurance, studies show that trampoline workouts are also great at increasing your balance and flexibility.

In one recent study, participants who performed an aerobic dance workout on a mini trampoline for twelve weeks showed greater improvements in balance and leg strength than participants who did a similar workout on a wood floor.

Working out on the trampoline requires you to rebalance yourself constantly as you jump and land at different angles, which increases your kinesthetic awareness much more than a regular floor workout.

Many popular trampoline exercises also require you to twist and turn your body, which stretches your muscles and increases your overall flexibility.

Rebounding can even improve your eye coordination as you track visual landmarks while you jump.

After a few months of consistent trampoline workouts, your entire body will have better coordination and balance.
