You might not have jumped on a trampoline since you were a kid, but it’s now considered a valid form of exercise. According to Healthline, trampoline exercises “are a convenient and enjoyable way to boost your cardiovascular health, improve endurance, and relieve stress and tension”.
Trampoline exercise targets your back, legs and core muscles, while research has also found it’s good for your bone health as it improves density and strength. Working out on a trampoline is also low-impact as the springs absorb most of the shock so it’s less jarring on your body.
Celebs like Busy Philipps and Cindy Crawford use trampolines in their workouts, with Philipps frequently featuring her tramp exercises on her Instagram Stories.
Mini trampolines, also known as rebounders, are close to the ground and are considered more stable than a regular size trampoline as they are specifically designed for aerobic exercise, according to Healthline. Outdoor trampolines, on the other hand, give you more space to move around and can take a higher weight capacity.

When it comes to trampoline exercises, Healthline has a bunch of drills that can be completed on both a mini and a large trampoline. Otherwise, YouTube is filled with trampoline workout videos, so head there for some inspo.
