Rebounders

SCROLL DOWN TO SEE AND BUY REBOUNDERS

There are innumerable systems for keeping fit, but according to modern research, there is one form of exercise that is more complete than any other. It is called aerobic rebounding and it consists of simple, ordinary exercises performed on a mini-trampoline – a bouncer or rebounder.

When exercise is performed on a sprung-mat, you are combining the force of gravity with those of acceleration and deceleration. To the body, however, these forces combine, appearing as just one rhythmically changing force, exerted simultaneously in every cell of the body. When you are at the top of a bounce the body cells are under a zero gravity stress, when at the bottom of a bounce, the rapid deceleration combines with the force of gravity to create a stimulation to the body tissues of up to twice the force of gravity. It is for this reason that even the North American Space Agency (NASA) have researched the power of simple bouncing exercises, declaring them to be "the most efficient form of exercise yet devised by man". This rhythmic, simultaneous, stimulation of every body cell has been shown by physiologists and trainers to provide some remarkable effects. "Beginning with as little as 30 seconds a day you can:

• Increase your vitality
• Burn off excess fat
• Improve your muscle tone
• Lower your cholesterol level
• Improve circulation
• Improve your balance and coordination
• -and have fun!"
