What body improvements have you noticed from rebounding? - Page 2

I definitely feel less bloated after rebounding, but one significant change I see after every rebounding session is how dewy, glowing and healthy my face looks for the remainder of the day!

I have a question for rebounders. I don't have a high end one. Mine is the cheap variety, but nevertheless I use it. I wonder how you match the rhythm of high impact aerobic dvds. I try, but I bounce slower and can't follow the beat. Do you bounce at the same rate they do, or just go at the pace that you can?

I just go at a pace that is comfortable for me.

I just create a rhythm that works for me and seems to fit in with the patterns of the music.

Not quite up to tempo sometimes, but consistent.

Other times, I switch up what I'm doing so I can do something at tempo.

Great story about the lymphodema being resolved. Rebounding is also supposed to help with depression. I think that rebounding should be prescribed for those being treated for cancer AND those suffering from depression!

Back when I had an Urban Rebounder before my Bellicon I lost just over 20 lbs or thereabouts and a fair number of inches too like the poster above. I can't say for sure that it was all down to rebounding as I also changed the way I ate at about the same time relating to a health issue. (LCHF diet - yeah, I know it can't really be talked about here). More recently rebounding has helped me with a mild case of lymphodema as well.

I am hypothyroid and still dealing with my doctor on treatment....one of the give-away signs that all is not well for me was depression. Well, rebounding puts me in a "feel good" mood that lasts all day. I am a believer that something internally is happening because no other workout does it quite as strongly and consistently as rebounding. It's a health saver for me.

This thread is reminding me that when I tried to do just 10 min/day of rebounding, it really seemed to reduce my cellulite. I should do that again

although actually that cellulite never did come back as bad as it used to be! I also agree that's it's a great mood booster.

I don't think it burns as many calories as jogging outside. Then again, it depends what you do on the rebounder! It's one of those workouts that can be as hard or easy as you want.

All this talk about helping with depression has definitely piqued my interest, as it's starting to creep it's way back in lately.

I wonder how it helps with depression specifically? I'll have to do some research. Knowing me, I'll probably save up for the Bellicon, since I'm an all-or-nothing kind of girl, ha ha! Is the Bellicon easy to store when you're not using it?

Get the Bellicon with folding legs and you'll have no trouble. I love my Bellicon, but wish I'd gotten the folding legs. Didn't really think it through before I purchased.
