I pulled mine out when I got a fitbit a couple of years ago... so I could more easily get in steps after a day at my sedentary desk job. I'd rebound while watching tv and made that time active rather than potato time LOL. I used it daily- first on my UR, then I upgraded to a JS (bungees are definitely an upgrade) and then 8 months later, I rewarded myself with a Bellicon.
Last Fall, I was in a slump and nothing enthused me except the rebounder. At that point, I decided it was non negotiable that I get in 10K every single day. I would then bump that goal to 11K, then 12K a day and so on. Most of those steps were on my rebounder. During football season, I would be on it for a good part of a game or two.
Without changing my diet or doing anything else, over about 3 or so months, I lost approximately 20 pounds and a lot of inches. It happened so quietly that I honestly didn't realize until my clothes literally started falling off. Even better, it addressed and almost obliterated lymphedema that I had under my arm from breast cancer treatment...swelling my oncologist said would never go away...
Rebounding is a GREAT workout - it actives every muscle, moves that lymph and tones your legs and abs. The one thing to keep in mind with doing it as frequently as I do, is to MAKE SURE that you are also doing pelvic floor exercises and keeping them strong. As we age, those muscles lose elasticity and the up and down motion can lead to prolapse. Make sure abs are in tight while jumping.
Now, I am back to incorporating many other workouts and once I did that, I lost more weight...but rebounding will always be part of my day...I have to keep that lymph moving!
I guess it's obvious - I'm a believer...I LOVE rebounding! (and my fitbit which is really what pushed me to my neglected rebounder in the first place.
