New Fitness Craze on the Rebound

The team from Rebound HIIT and Wellness on the Move will have you bouncing with a smile !

You know those mini trampolines you bounce on while doing a fitness workout ? That ’ s rebounding . It was widely popular back in the 1980s , and is making its comeback today , and quickly gaining popularity , because it is a whole lot of fun while it helps to tone your body . Just 20 minutes of bouncing at a moderate level of intensity can help improve your fitness , as well as improve your heart health .

Rebounding works on every cell of the body and creates an increased G-force resistance , which strengthens your whole musculoskeletal system – bones , muscles , connective tissues , and organs . When you ’ re jumping up and down , several things happen : Your body accelerates as you bounce upward , there ’ s a pause of weightlessness at the top and an increase in G-force as your body decelerates , then you make contact with the rebounder .
