Hi, just purchased a mini trampoline and I am getting ready to use it for exercise and I am wondering if anyone out here has used one?

I have a treadmill and thought the trampoline would be a nice change...

    I have one that I use on rainy days. I just use it and jog in place while I watch TV. It's low impact and kind of fun. The time passes quickly if you like what you are watching.
  • Yeah, my mom's really into them. They call them "rebounders." You can just jump around, but also try the same kind of things you would do in an aerobics class on the trampoline. Like, jogging in place, kicks, knee lifts, etc. and also kick boxing/tae bo type stuff - kicks, punches, etc. They have rebounding classes (and i'm sure videos) if you're looking for more ideas. Have fun!
  • I have one and love it1 It's great for when I don't feel like driving to go jog somewhere- keeps me from being able to make any excuses to not exercise. Really do enjoy it!!
