[quote="poopylungstuffing"]i like it because you can do it while watching television...so I end up using the tv as an incentive to exercise....likesay I will only allow myself to watch one of the cartoons I am addicted to if I am jumping on the trampoline while I do it. My only problem right now, is that I do not have access to a shower where I live and all the jumping makes me muggy and sweaty pretty fast...so that has been my excuse for not doing it...i have been riding my bike though I have found that some rebounders are better than others, and you might do yourself wise to invest in a nicer one. The one I currently have was less than $20 at Wal Mart, instead of springs, it has elastic bands....I like the spring resistance much better...and I assume the elastic will certainly wear out faster...[/quote]

Weightloss is 80% dependant on diet and 20% on exersize. My mother is a personal trainer and told me this. Eating 6 small meals a day instead of 3 large ones, helps to keep your metabolism high, there for burning more fat. It also increases concentration as a bonus! <br /> <br />If the goal isn't to lose weight, but just to increase fitness...then adding a healthy diet is sure something to do if you haven't done so already. <br /> <br />As far as mini-trampolines go...I used to have one when I was a young child. Now I don't use it, as when I jump on it, I feel as if my head is going to fall off my neck! <img src="modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>beef_bourito</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="http://wrongplanet.cachefly.net/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2008 9:00 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">If a trampoline will get you exercising then i say go for it.

I found that I couldn't stop thinking about getting one, so I looked them up to see if there were any fitness benefits.
