Trampolining: The Whole Body Workout
Okay, it’s 2018 and we all know a thing or two about what it means to lead a healthy lifestyle: no fast food, no sugar, no eating before bed, getting enough sleep, and having a workout routine. The problem arises when we think a certain diet that promises loss of excess weight in a specific amount of time becomes the replacement for staying physically active.
We all need exercise, however, not everybody is the same meaning not every exercise is suitable for everyone. If you don’t find any of the traditional workouts good for you, like jogging or the cardio trends, then it’s time to give something both new and old that would take you back to your childhood days: exercise trampolines.
Jump sport is relatively new (think the last six years or so), but it didn’t quite catch as the other trends of the time until its many benefits became known widely. Whether you look for jump sport workout in a gym or decide to make use of your home as the ideal gym, it’s up to you, as long as it’s one of the commercial grade, polypropylene exercise trampolines you choose, with removable spring cover for more safety.
Why trampolining? Whether you’re a fan or not, the fact is it has the same physical effects as other activities like basketball, football, and biking. On the positive side as well, it’s much better than running because it’s not so vigorous, you wouldn’t end up with an orthopedic injury, and you can count on better toning of the leg and calf muscles.
Many who’ve tried jumping on a trampoline were amazed by how easy it was, and it has to do with how much of the impact the trampoline absorbs, so the shock is diminished which isn’t the case with running. Furthermore, it helps your metabolism, making it essential for weight loss; think of it as a fun way of shedding kilos.
Though there are more types of exercise you can have, from moderate rebounding, strength (as high as you can), to aerobic (with manoeuvres), even if you opt for the moderate one, jumping at a slower pace without stressing the metabolism, you can still expect to lose weight, improve your physique and health in general.
Due to the weightless state happening when there’s a change in gravity with every bounce, there’s a positive impact on the lymphatic system, and as a result the immune system as a whole, since the increase in lymph goes from the blood vessels into the body tissues, enabling detoxification. Are you willing to make this whole body workout part of your lifestyle?
