Mini trampoline exercises are a great way to lose weight and keep you fit. But along with the exercises you should maintain a healthy diet as well. These exercises should be performed three to four days a week to achieve the best result.
Before starting any exercise on the mini trampoline, you should do the warm up exercises to prevent any injury or muscle pull.
The purpose of warm-up exercises is ensuring your bodyas muscles are warmed up and ready for the workout. Cool-down exercises allow your muscles to wind down after working them so hard.
Trampoline contact bounce is a good warm up and cool down exercise. To do contact bounce, keep your feet shoulder-width apart with slightly bent knees and put your hands on your waistline. Bounce gently without your feet leaving the mat.
Foot tap is another good warm up exercise for the trampoline. Keep your body in the same position as for the contact bounce and shift your weight slowly to one leg. Tap your other foot to the side and keep bouncing steadily.
Lower body stretch is the best exercise to start. With your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands behind your back, start to lower your torso as if trying to touch your toes. Hold for thirty seconds and repeat ten times.
Floor Stretch is another very effective exercise. While sitting on the floor, keep your legs stretched apart and bend your upper torso by pulling yourself toward one thigh. Hold the stretch for thirty seconds and then repeat it on the other side.
Knee raise is a very good exercise for weight loss. To do this exercise, raise one knee to just above the waistline. Keep bouncing while raising your knee. Repeat the exercise on each side ten times and then resume the steady contact bounce.
Cool down after exercises is important in order to prevent injuries. To achieve best results, follow this trampoline exercise program while keeping a healthy diet. If these directions are followed, you will start to lose weight within six to eight weeks.
