ReBounding for ReBuilding!

You'll be surprised and delighted at what a difference exercise - and this is excellent - can make. Over 33 benefits are listed here!
I first used a rebounder in the Physio department at my local hospital because it's a very powerful tool to help improve balance and 'new fitness' - you can review this system, click here, which is a complete system including dvd. There are also additional great dvds by the same experienced trainer below - ffrom beginner to advanced - read my DVD review, click here.
You can also order the Urban Rebounder immediately here without having to go to the reviews or brave the shopping malls. It's an excellent deal through Amazon which is a very reputable company.
Rebounding is also an effective exercise that:
* Reduces your body fat
* Firms your arms, legs, thighs, abdomen and hips
* Increases your agility
* Strengthens your muscles overall
* Provides an aerobic effect for your cardiopulmonary systems
* Rejuvenates your body when tired
* Puts you in a state of mental and physical wellness
People who rebound find that they are able to work longer, sleep better, and feel less tense and nervous.
The effect is not just psychological because the action of bouncing up and down against gravity effectively stimulates the lymphatic system without trauma to the musculoskeletal system. This unique discovery is central to the reasons Rebounding has become one of the most beneficial forms of exercise ever developed.
33 Fascinating Ways the Body Responds to Regular Rebounding (should you need so many ways!)
1. Rebounding provides an increased G-force (gravitation load), which strengthens the musculoskeletal systems.
2. Rebounding protects the joints from chronic fatigue and impact delivered by exercising on hard surfaces.
3. Rebounding helps manage body composition and improves muscle-to-fat ratio.
4. Rebounding aids lymphatic circulation by improving the millions of one-way valves in the lymphatic system.
5. Rebounding circulates more oxygen to the tissues.
6. Rebounding establishes a better equilibrium between the oxygen required by the tissues and the oxygen made available.
7. Rebounding increases capacity for respiration.
8. Rebounding tends to reduce the height to which the arterial pressures rise during exertion.
9. Rebounding lessens the time during which blood pressures rise during exertion.
10. Rebounding assists in the rehabilitation of a heart problem.
11. Rebounding increases the functional activity of the red bone marrow in the production of red blood cells.
12. Rebounding improves resting metabolic rate so that more calories are burned for hours after exercise.
13. Rebounding causes the muscles to perform work in moving fluids through the body to lighten the heart's load.
14. Rebounding decreases the volume of blood pooling in the veins of the cardiovascular system preventing chronic oedema.
15. Rebounding encourages collateral circulation by increasing the capillary count in the muscles and decreasing the distance between capillaries and the target cells.
16. Rebounding strengthens the heart and other muscles so that they work more efficiently.
17. Rebounding allows resting heart beat to beat less often.
18. Rebounding lowers circulating cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
19. Rebounding lowers low-intensity lipoprotein (bad) in the blood
20. Rebounding promotes tissue repair.
21. Rebounding for longer than 20 minutes at a moderate intensity increases the mitochondria (cell engine) count within muscle cells, essential for endurance.
22. Rebounding adds to the alkaline reserve of the body, which may be of significance in an emergency requiring prolonged effort.
23. Rebounding improves coordination between the proprioceptors in the joints, the transmission of nerve impulses to and from the brain, transmission of nerve impulses and responsiveness of the muscle tissue.
24. Rebounding improves the brain's responsiveness to the vestibular apparatus within the inner ear, thus improving balance.
25. Rebounding offers relief from neck and back pains, headache, and other pain caused by lack of exercise.
26. Rebounding enhances digestion and elimination processes.
27. Rebounding allows for deeper and easier relaxation and sleep.
28. Rebounding results in better mental performance, with keener learning processes.
29. Rebounding curtails fatigue and menstrual discomfort for women.
30. Rebounding minimizes the number of colds, allergies, digestive disturbances, and abdominal problems.
31. Rebounding tends to slow down atrophy in the aging process.
32. Rebounding is an effective modality by which the user gains a sense of control and an improved self-image.
33. Rebounding is enjoyable!
