I would guess (keep in mind now this it just a guess) that if rebounding stimulates the lymphatic system that it also helps with fluid retention. Fluid retention can make the appearance of cellulite worse ( I used to fly for a living. My legs looked horrible after a day of flying and, although not great, looked better in the morning after the ol' kidneys could go to work.) So, maybe it doesn't "bust cellulite" but helps make it appear less noticable. Maybe??

When I was testing out the Urban Rebounder at a fitness convention, I asked the guy if rebounding would make my face sag. He looked down at my chest and said, "Well, not your face..."
I had to laugh.

I had been having an increasing problem with fluid around my ankles in the hot humid months until I started rebounding daily. It took me a while to make the connection between rebounding and no more fluid retention, though. Still, I didn't notice a change in cellulite, though I wouldn't know how to measure a difference if there was a change. Rebounding does make my hair and nails grow much faster. That's been easy to measure since I have my hair cut every 5 weeks. I've stopped and started rebounding daily twice due to two injuries over the past year, and the hair and nail growth slowed to a comparative halt during my no-rebounding periods, even though I kept up with alternate workouts. Very interesting. I think it may be due to the effect on every cell in your body of going from zero gravity to 2 times the normal pull of gravity with every bounce. I know Al Carter's book spells out the science behind this, but its been a while since I've read it.
