Anyone uses a rebounder for cardio?

[CarlaVeg]

How do you like it? How is the cardio effect? do you feel work outed afterward? I am very tempted after I saw this TA video on youtube

What rebounder/mini-trampoline would you recommend?

Hi,

I use my rebounder for most hi impact moves in any dvd and I love it! My joints are thanking me as well. I just have it handy and jump on it when I need or want to. I get a great cardio effect ( and my tuck jumps are really awesome!). Best equipment purchase I made in years. I have an Urban Rebounder and am quite happy with it. You really need to spend a few dollars to get good quality with these, imo. The springs are heavy duty on mine, and I know alot of the cheaper types are just not up to par.

My rebounder was folded up in my storage room for a while, but I recently got it back out to do high-impact moves in some workouts.

I used to do rebounder workouts, and use it to do interval workouts like Cardio Coach.

I love that I can run and sprint on it, something that I can't do on another surface without my knees feeling it.

You can do very low-key workouts on it, barely leaving the mat (or not leaving the mat at all) or all-out, high-intensity sprints that leave you gasping for air. So yes, you can get worked out from it.

I have a Needak (which is pretty much the same as Urban Rebounder: UR used to sell Needak before they made their own).

I've had one for years and it was my best fitness purchase ever. I leave it out all the time and use it almost every time I do cardio. I have a bad back and neck and can't do things like tuck jumps on the floor, so I get a great workout subsituting on my rebounder. I have an Urban Rebounder. Love it!!

I thought that is what the rebounder was for, cardio. If you put in urban rebounder on YouTube, you will see many exercises. With the urban rebounder videos come with it.

I think there is a rebounder check in also, if not, try putting rebounder in the VF search, I think there are plenty threads on it.

One time, we had a frenzi to get to Khols while they were on sale for 11.99

Lol

Is this the UR?

Some people complained about the quality

This one has good reviews but it's cheap... I wonder if it's any good...

but it's probably for kids?

I held off for several years before getting a rebounder but as soon as I tried one out after a PT session I ordered one immediately. I love how refreshed I feel after using it, no matter how easy or intense a workout I do.

Yes, add me to the club. I have an Urban Rebounder and I LOVE it. I can't do any impact, and this has brought new life into my workouts.

Yes Carla, thats the one I have. Yes, there are higher priced ones, 2-400 but for me to try out, I didn't go that route. Good thing I didn't because its folded up in the basement.

Yes, wanted the 400 dollar one, lol but.... Just don't get that second one. It does look of less quality even for a rebounder.

Someone will come and say who that lady is that jumps on the rebounder with a silver jumpsuit. She is funny and fun.
