The Health Benefits of Rebounding

Using a rebounder is the most convenient, metabolically effective form of exercise around. You can easily perform exercises on the rebounder in your living room, office and your yard.  Anyone can bring a folding rebounder with them as part of their travel.

​

Rebounding is an exercise that reduce body fat; firms legs, thighs, abdomen, arms and hips; increase your agility; improve balance; strengthen muscles over all; provide an aerobic effect for the heart; rejuvenate the body when it's tired; and generally puts you in a state of health and fitness.
