Do trampolines help people lose weight?

ktsummerfun

I am just wanting to ask money savers, are trampolines worth the money? I've been reading about them recently and cannot decide if I want to buy one.

I want to lose some weight and heard this a good way for adults and children alike to do so. However, I don't really want to pay that much for one.

Any ideas or thoughts about this, then let me know.

Rebounding Exercise Review
However as this site has a direct link to a cheap rebounder it may not be wholly independant review.

I bought a fitness trampoline for my wife just last week from a site called simply fitness equipment and they were really helpful in helping me choose the right one.
This one:

Wasn't sure at first because of the brand "Body Sculpture" but because of the price and cos it was the cheapest I just went for it and I'm really happy with it! She's not the sporty type so I decided to spoil her and she absolutely loves it. Hope this helps you in what you are looking for!

My cousin bought one fairly recently and he was well impressed. Had it set up for a barbecue that he had for the family and all the kids went mad playing on it! He hasn't had any problems with it as far as I know and I think it would be a good addition to your exercise regime!

They are fabulous at toning your stomach! (although I used to play on a real one not one of the mini ones). Can be great fun.

Just make sure you wear a good bra, coz it's my bet it won't be good at toning boobs!:rotfl:

DH is picking a rebounder up for me from Freecycle later tonight. Anyone got any links to instructions / exercise programmes to try with them?

I'm not 100% convinced, but if it's free apart from the cost of the petrol to get it ...

They would be great for loosing weight - scenario - falls off trampoline, breaks bones, including jaw bone, can't eat for 3 months... weight loss guaranteed or money back.
