The trampoline is not just a fun toy. It is also great for fatloss and weight management. I have introduced a lot of people to this great training tool. It is convenient - right in people's own garden - and it is fun. Everybody loves it. The greatest thing is that you can make quite challenging workouts while basically playing around. Fun interval training for fat loss I find that interval training is by far the most efficient to exercise for fat loss on the trampoline. It is becoming well known among trainers that interval training is more efficient for fat loss than hour-long, steady cardio sessions that used to be prescribed. This is great news for people wanting to lose weight because you don't have to spend as much time. On the other hand you do have to crank up the intensity. It is not always easy to push yourself when you are running or biking but on the trampoline you get that high intensity without the same mental effort. Trampoline exercise is not as monotonous as running or biking. Besides, when you have a program with good variation, you have to concentrate on doing the different drills which will take your mind off the heavy breathing and help you keep a good intensity for maximum results! The trampoline gives you an athletic feeling Even my clients who are a quite a bit on the heavy side soon find that the trampoline gives them an athletic feeling and makes them want to do more training. You feel lighter on the trampoline because of the effect from the springs. I use this fact on purpose when coaching because the "feeling heavy" part can be exactly what prevents you from getting started on an exercise routine. Then we just start out with safe bouncing and work our way up in intensity progressively. Other benefits of trampoline exercise Trampoline exercise is not only efficient for fat loss. I used the trampoline a lot when I was preparing for the world cup and Olympics in skiing. In fact, the trampoline is a well known tool among world class skiers because it provides a way more functional basis than any cardio machine on the market. We use the trampoline both for our interval training sessions, to train tricks for our jumps and to improve spacial awareness. When you train on the trampoline you can work movements in all planes: back-and-forth, side-to-side, up'and-down and get comfortable with your feet off the ground. Plus you automatically improve in coordination, stability and balance which are not bad bonuses.
