Trampoline exercise 'is great for the body'
03/07/2009 The G force exerted on the body by the bouncing motion on a trampoline helps to rid the body of toxins, it has been suggested.
According to health commentator Michael Russell, the lower cell pressure while the body is airborne allows the influx of nutrients and oxygen, essentially exercising individual cells.
He claimed bouncing on a trampoline can have a number of benefits in terms of the body's cardiovascular system, including strengthening muscles and lightening the load on the heart as it pumps blood around the body.
In addition, Mr Russell added that bouncing increases oxygen availability throughout the body, helps reduce the likelihood of obesity, aids lymphatic circulation and reduces cholesterol and triglycerides levels.
Finally, he proposed that people who exercise on a trampoline stimulate their metabolism and digestive processes.
Last week, the Bazeebas.com blog reported that the rebounding action which occurs when someone jumps on a trampoline is similar to a low-impact workout, but is easier on the back and joints.
