Rebounder/Mini Trampoline - Anybody Use One?

Okay, we've talked about vibration platforms. How about rebounders? Do you use one? Tell us about your experience. Thanks.

I have a Bellicon and I use it often - mostly on the days when I can't get out to jog or walk.

At my age I would bounce right off it lol.

I would enjoy using it but at my age, my bladder would not agree, if you get my drift !! I do use a mini stepper, no issues with that .

It doesn't have to be so bouncy. At least with the Bellicon, you can choose the strength of the "pad" (I don't know what to call that thing). I chose the strongest because I mainly just do quick steps and side-to-side steps. I never feel unstable. I don't do the jumping like you see children doing on their enormous backyard trampolines. It's just a low-impact and fun thing to do while watching tv.

I do! Supposed to be great for the lymphatic system.

I bought a nice one during covid to use while working from home, and gyms closed.
it folds down well, where it has been for a while! I need to access it for some jogging or hopping when I don't want to do gym.

They are nice for some cardio, doesn't do anything for bones, so think that's why is folded up! I was more into strength training!

You have to have excellent balance to use a trampoline and many older people do not. I'd kill myself.

I have a rebounder and I do use it! And I'm old!

Mine has a "handle" to steady yourself with. It is easier than walking and it's fun.

Mine is in a spot on my screened porch that gets morning sun. You don't have to jump on it! Just bounce to get benefits. I do feel better when I use it!

Walking tends to make my feet hurt, rebounding does not!
