I just wanted to add that if anyone is looking for a great rebounder workout, the Cardio Coach workouts are great.
www.cardiocoach.com They are audio CDs and designed for use on cardio machines. I have done them on the rebounder and the exercise bike. I had so much fun on the rebounder. For the heart rate level 1 I just health bounced or lightly jogged. For steady state I jogged with arm movements. For hill climbs where you would adjust your tension on your machine I did high intensity moves - jacks, high jogs, tuck jumps, jump rope - anything to get my heart rate to a level 3. For sprints I did football drills. I enjoyed these more than any rebounder specific workout I have tried because I could design my own workout using my own steps. |

I've had my rebounder for a year now and thought I'd stop by and say "thank you" to all of you for all the information and encouragement to start bouncing.
I bounce while following a fitness video instructor or to modify a move or as a substitute for a segment. Plus I enjoy putting on some good music and bouncing away. (I'm looking forward to getting a rebounder big enough so I can do the Electric Slide on it!). One thing I've learned to avoid that slightly dizzying feeling I used to get when I moved from the rebounder and immediately stepped onto the floor...I have a "routine" I do where I gently rock back and forth (like they do in some of the yoga videos when you're getting grounded), I completely still myself for a few seconds, and then get off. If it's right before bedtime, I rock back and forth a bit longer and that really calms me and helps prepare me for a good night's rest. Thank you for all your help, Gilda
