Getting started with mini trampoline exercisesAs you get started with mini trampoline exercises, the following safety tips should encourage more comfortable rebound aerobics sessions.
Learning New Rebounding exercise Skills...
When bouncing on mini trampolines we go in and develop aerobic fitness, along with numerous rebounding skills.
It’s natural to feel confused learning new patterns when rebounding on a mini trampoline.
Many skills, involving balance, co-ordination, agility, reaction time, and general fitness, are challenged.
Many people assume that because rebounding on a mini trampoline doesn’t cause them to drip with sweat, or grasp for oxygen, that they can’t be benefiting from the activity. This is a popular misconception. The fact is that your body is performing more work, for less effort, while achieving maximum training effects.
Remind yourself to keep hands on your hips until you feel familiar with routines, and really relaxed with your feet. Arm combinations will naturally fall into place as your rebounding skills improve.If you become confused, pulse gently and join in again when you’re ready. THE TALK TEST using mini trampolines
The talk test provides a simple method for assessing the amount of effort you should be putting into your mini trampoline sessions, for aerobic training. You’ll find in-depth information in Starbound my Book regarding this subject. However a very simple way to check suitable levels of exertion for your age is to use the 'talk test'.
Count patterns aloud during your rebounding exercise workout sessions
CLOCKS & TURNS
Throughout the Starbound Workout DVD video we move about the mini trampoline mat in a variety of ways
As an easy point of reference you can mirror my moves on screen. At first always face the TV screen, when you are rebounding with the video - even if turns are included in my instruction. For easy viewing of the TV screen, perform only small diagonal turns to begin. Only progress to wider turns about the mini trampoline mat, when you no longer need a constant eye on the screen.
Turning about the mini trampoline mat requires steady balance. Always jump your turns, lifting feet slightly from the mini trampoline mat, to avoid placing stress on the knees
USING THE REBOUNDER ON EDGE AS A BARRE
Turned on edge a 40” (102cm) mini trampoline provides an ideal ballet barre to support posture and alignment for conditioning and stretching sequences.
To lift and lower the rebounder Stand close to the rim of the mini trampoline
Check your posture, with feet about hip width, perfectly parallel, toes aligned in front
Tighten the abs to support the torso
Check the buttocks move back behind your heels, and that knees stay behind your toes as you bend. As you lift and lower the rebounder, keep your arms close to the torso. Transfer the weight of the rebounder into your thighs as you move with the frame
To move between sitting and standing
