Trampolines promote an active outdoor lifestyle. They are far more than just good fun!
Here are four reasons why using this type of outdoor play equipment could benefit you and your children:
1. They are a good aerobic workout will improve your fitness levels
Trampolines are actually a very efficient form of exercise. "Rebounding" as it is sometimes referred to burns about 260 calories in a 30 minute workout which incorporates different exercises. This is compared to 200 calories for jogging in the same period. It also is lower impact on your joints than running on concrete.
2. Increasing your heart rate for a few minutes every day will decrease your chances of heart related health problems
There is a lot of supporting evidence that aerobic fitness increases your odds of living long. It decreases your bad cholesterol (low-density lips) and increases your good cholesterol (high-density lipids). This will decrease your risk of developing heart disease.
The benefits of this form of exercise also include improved stamina, recovery and fewer viral infections as your immune system is improved.
3. Builds strength and improves coordination by taking part in a sport
Trampoline exercise relies on having core strength. Sitting down on your bounce in a squatting motion works multiple muscle groups simultaneously. You can even take this a step further and have the kids join a trampolining club. Trampoline gymnastics is recognised a recognised Olympic sport and with the right professional coaching and supervision at home and in the gym the kids can learn to do some very impressive moves!
4. Exercising releases endorphins - so will make you feel good
There is a lot of evidence that people who regularly exercise receive a boost in their mood and lower rates of depression.
When you bounce on a trampoline and you exercise your brain releases chemicals called endorphins which trigger a euphoric feeling. When done regularly this can even lead to a better and more positive look on life.
