Mini trampoline rebounder support bars, also known as stability bars, help you develop balance and confidence with rebounder exercise workouts. We lose skills of balance and co-ordination over a period of time, if we don't utilize them. Most people are surprised at how quickly their skills improve when rebounding on mini trampolines, both physically and in terms of confidence.

The Importance of stable POSTURE

when you are rebounding on mini trampolines

I often notice that if a client lacks confidence with their balance, when rebounding, especially at first, they have a tendency to compromise by adjusting posture.

The essential foundation for performing all rebounding exercises correctly, lies in setting a stable postural stance.

All rebounding skills and rebounding workouts evolve from this central core.

Throughout your rebounder exercise workouts keep a focus on posture. Align your pelvic & pubic bones on the same level in the same plane

Focus on keeping the pelvic and the pubic bone on the same level, in the same plane.

Check toes are aligned in front, the knees are soft and not locked out, and the shoulders relaxed.

Lift up through the rib cage, consciously releasing the shoulders, as you breathe deeply.

Flatten the top of the head, by dipping your chin slightly and lengthening the back of the neck.

• Imagine that someone is pulling you up through the centre of the spine, through the torso, as if like a puppet on a string!

• Release and relax the breathing, and set up a gentle pulsing motion. You are ready to bounce!

• I suggest you vary rebounding workouts - for example spend a few minutes rebounding facing the stabilizing bar, then turn to the left, while you are rebounding, for a few minutes, turn back to the centre again for a few minutes, and then perform your bouncing routines facing towards the right.

ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE BAR TO YOUR REQUIREMENTS

The mini trampoline support bar fits onto two alternate rebounder legs with a clamp system, that screws onto each leg. Two sidebars fit into each of the lower inset portions of these clamps. 

• The upper portion of the bar, which is detachable, slides into the lower portion of the bar.

• The central portion of the bar, which sits across the mat, is also detachable and it can be removed quickly if other members of the family prefer not to use it.

• If you are going to use a support bar on your mini trampoline, for balance when rebounding, it is best to think about where you are going to place your rebounder in the house, so that you can set it up, with the bar attached.  Use it spontaneously and in planned mini trampoline rebounder workout sessions, without the need to attach the bar, or unscrew the legs of the rebounder, each time you are going to use it.

If you set the rebounder support bar too high, there will be a tendency to lean the upper body backwards, thus scrunching the shoulder blades.

If the bar is too low, you will tend to lean forward, tensing the knees and quads in the front of your thighs.

To align the body correctly for rebounding routines you need to establish your posture with your feet parallel toes facing forward, knees soft, not locked out.

You set the height of the rebounder bar so that when your arms are relaxed to your sides... the height of the bar is aligned with your elbows.

To set the height of the support bar

With your arms relaxed at your sides, simply raise your forearms to form a right angle at the elbow, with your palms facing downward, and your forearms horizontal to the mat.

Setting the bar at this height will enable you to bounce comfortably, without any tension being locked into the upper shoulder area. The height of the bar is adjustable.
