In this podcast episode, Brad Williams of Over 40 Fitness Hacks interviews Steve Carver from JumpSport, discussing the benefits of rebounding as a fitness activity, particularly for individuals over the age of 40. Brad, a personal trainer with over 14 years of experience, is keen on helping his audience maintain their fitness and well-being while taking into consideration the challenges of aging.
The conversation delves into the science and effectiveness of rebounding compared to other forms of exercise, such as jogging, and highlights the importance of joint and connective tissue health, which tends to deteriorate with age. Steve, who is well into his 60s, shares how rebounding has contributed to his longevity and overall well-being. Rebounding, with its reduced impact on joints and connective tissues, allows individuals to work out longer, harder, and recover faster.
Steve explains how the reduced impact on the body during rebounding can minimize inflammation and soreness typically associated with high-impact exercises. He compares the JumpSport rebounding system to traditional spring-based rebounders and emphasizes the significant reduction in ground impact it offers, making it gentler on the body.
The podcast also explores the benefits of rebounding for the lymphatic system. Rebounding enhances lymphatic flow, which aids in removing toxins from the body, promoting overall health. Brad and Steve discuss how movement plays a crucial role in supporting the lymphatic system, and the unique advantages of rebounding in this regard.
They touch upon how rebounding engages more muscle groups due to the need for stability on the trampoline surface, making it an efficient way to reach one's target heart rate and experience faster recovery during active intervals. Steve cites a study conducted by the American Council on Exercise that found 12 minutes of rebounding to be equivalent to 20 minutes of treadmill running in terms of cardiovascular benefits.
The discussion concludes with the practicality and space-saving advantages of rebounding, making it an accessible and eco-friendly fitness option. Brad expresses his enthusiasm for incorporating rebounding into his training regimen for both his clients and himself, given its many health and time-saving benefits.
Overall, the podcast highlights the potential of rebounding as a fun and effective fitness solution, especially for those over 40, and underscores the importance of maintaining joint health and supporting the lymphatic system in aging individuals.
