Bouncing on a trampoline doesn’t just provide hours of entertainment for children. They also can provide effective trampoline exercise for adults.
According to a NASA research report, trampolining is almost 70 percent more effective than other forms of rigorous cardiovascular exercise – such as jogging, running or cycling.
As both a low-impact and high-intensity exercise, jumping on a trampoline is good for weight loss.
With a variety of fun round trampoline exercises for adults, there are plenty of compelling reasons to integrate trampolining into your fitness routine, including:
If you’re looking to include trampolining into your regular fitness regime, here are some easy trampoline exercises for weight loss to get you started:
In this traditional trampoline stance, arms and knees are bent slightly while you bounce up and down.
This simple movement will effectively burn calories, loosen joints and ligaments, warm up your body, and prepare you for a high-intensity workout.
Lightly bouncing on the spot also offers an excellent method to cool down after your workout is complete.
Test your fitness by bouncing on the spot for a 2-minute period. How many times can you bounce up and down? Check your results after a month, to see how your speed and agility has improved!
For a tuck jump, begin with a couple of traditional trampoline bounces to gain momentum.
Then, as you bounce higher, bring your knees to your chest at the top of the bounce. You can also alternate knees.
The higher you bounce, the more energy your body will use (and the more calories you will burn).
Tuck your knees under your trunk for a more intensified core workout, that will also build stability and strength.
Really get your core working with pike jumps. This requires straight legs and you touch your toes right out in front of you in the air.
Repetitively jump side-to-side, and even front-to-back, with your feet together, landing and taking off at the same time.
This bounce is an excellent way to for toning and conditioning the core stomach muscle groups.
Try to complete as many sets as possible in 30-60 seconds, before having a short rest and starting again.
A split pike bounce is like a star jump and has traditionally been used in gymnastics or aerobics training – but it's much more fun on a trampoline!
Split pike jumps on a trampoline will develop cardiovascular fitness, endurance, and coordination. They'll make a great addition to your trampoline cardio workout!
Aim for 30-60 second sets, with short breaks in between.
Start with your feet together and arms at your side.
Jump high in the air, separating your legs, and lift your arms up to create the star position at the top of each bounce. Land in the same position as your starting point.
This one makes use of multiple parts of your body for toning. The hands and knees jump is a great addition to the trampoline cardio workout.
You want to bounce up with a flat back, before landing in a 'cat' like position on all fours.
Remember to keep strong hands and knees when you land. Also, make sure to really stretch those arms up when you jump before you land.
Start slow and try to perfect your posture with the hands and knees jump.
Gradually increase the duration of each interval, to achieve a high-intensity cardiovascular workout
Did you know that our safe trampolines also make a great stunt training tool?
When you're practising acrobatic feats, you want a stabilised environment that is free of those unpredictable or unstable conditions often present outside of the gym.
These stunts can be rehearsed over and over in a consistent setting until the desired skill level is reached, providing athletes with a greatly decreased chance of injury.
Furthermore, this method of training is fantastic for fostering creativity and confidence in stunts, as the possibilities are endless and the practice methods are easy.
A key benefit of using trampolines for cross-training purposes is their year-round availability. This is a great advantage for athletes who passionately participate in sports that are tied to a season.
Training on trampolines in the off-season ensures that athletes stay in shape and can fine-tune their athletic skills, regardless of the outdoor conditions.
Trampolines are invaluable for avid snowboarders, skateboarders, and related sports enthusiasts that demand that athletes become airborne, as they can learn new stunts safely and effectively.
The rebound experienced on trampolines allows the athlete to increase their hang time — a crucial aspect in many board sports. Our innovative Vuly Deck perfectly illustrates these benefits.
This product is made specifically to be enjoyed on trampolines, but can also be used as a training tool for off-season snowboarders.
The highly specialised core allows the board to generate a much greater lift than a conventional model, making it easier for athletes to test new tricks in the off-season.
Similarly, our Vuly Deck is fantastic both as a training board and as an individual sport. With its incomparable flexibility, lift, support, and comfort, wakeboarders can recreate the motion of the sport without having to leave home.
Gymnasts similarly benefit from trampoline training. The lift associated with a trampoline rebound is unparalleled and can assist gymnasts of all ages with a feeling of weightlessness that is imperative for perfecting risky stunts.
The greater spring gives gymnasts more time to complete his or motions — a vital quality for learning new stunts or perfecting new ones.
These trampoline exercises for adults can aid in weight loss, build endurance and prevent lifestyle-related diseases, such as diabetes or obesity.
As with all outdoor activities, it’s important to remember a few handy pointers:
For decades, rebounding on a trampoline has been touted as a fantastic tool for exercise and weight control.
Although it is indeed one of the most efficient ways to increased strength, better health, and greater flexibility, there is also research that suggests that regular trampoline usage assists users in looking and feeling younger.
At first glance, the claim seems incredulous. “How, exactly, does rebounding on a trampoline have such a fantastic effect on the appearance?” you may wonder.
The answers are simple, yet highly interconnected. Here are just a few reasons trampolines help you look and feel years younger
Essentially, jumping on a trampoline is an exercise tool that is suitable for all ages and fitness levels. Regular exercise, like rebounding on a trampoline, increases the body's production of endorphins, serotonin, dopamine, and a wide array of other naturally produced stimulants.
These stimulants have an addictive effect on the body. Because it is a fun and addictive workout, users are more likely to stick to their exercise program. Numerous studies show that people who exercise regularly enjoy better health and a younger appearance. Their bodies get the regular exercise and usage that they need to remain healthy and strong, which leads to fewer injuries. Exercising on a trampoline leaves the skin flushed and vibrant, and voila — a younger looking appearance.
Additionally, rebounding on a trampoline is a fantastic way to stimulate the lymphatic system and flush out toxins (for more information on this topic, see our "Articles" page). We are exposed to toxins in our environment everyday and are subject to an incredible amount of chemicals that wreck havoc on our body.
Toxins can cause memory impairment, dull skin, brittle hair, vision problems, intense headaches, chronic fatigue, poor digestion, foggy thinking, and hormonal imbalances. It is not a coincidence that these same qualities are often attributed to an aged appearance and an unhealthy look. Conversely, jumping on a trampoline cleanses the cells and fuels the lymphatic system, leading to a stronger immune system, a more attractive exterior, and a healthier body.
Rebounding on a trampoline strengthens and exercises the entire body in one session, as opposed to targeting certain parts. The cardiovascular benefits of rebounding are enormous and can lead to a decrease in cholesterol, an increase in energy, an increase in balance (which protects against falls), an improvement in muscle tone, and an increase in flexibility. Regular cardio exercise has also been attributed to a lower incidence of chronic conditions, such as diabetes or high blood pressure.

It's always important to warm up before a trampoline workout
Some simple bounces are a great way to familiarise yourself with the trampoline surface, regain your balance and warm up your muscles, which is an important step in preventing injury.
A warm-up helps you to get the optimal result from your workout because as your heart rate rises, your body begins burning more calories.
Do 3 sets of 10!
Tuck jumps are a high-intensity exercise that successfully builds core strength; you're utilising your midsection to lift your body’s most powerful muscles.
Do 3 sets of 10!
Do 1 30-second hold!
The soft trampoline mat requires more balance than solid ground, meaning your core is working even harder than it would be in a traditional planking exercise.
Did you know that the frame on your Vuly trampoline can be just as useful for home exercise regimes?
A strong and stable 'beam' is the starting point for many great exercises.
Here are some exercises that strengthen and tone simply by using the frame of your trampoline.
But remember – never touch the frame of your trampoline while someone is bouncing.
This exercise mimics the classic push-up, producing toned and defined arms, without the added pressure of being on a horizontal surface.
This is a fantastic core exercise – strengthening the band of muscles running from your abs around to your back.
Core strengthening is particularly helpful for balance, posture, and for reducing back pain caused by weak muscles.
Another brilliant core exercise that also works your glutes, you can speed this one up for some additional calorie burning!
This exercise is an epic upper-body workout. It starts small and slowly increases your ‘dip’ depth as you progress.
Who says your Vuly just has to be a trampoline for kids.
Why not get your heart rate pumping with some trampoline boxing routines!
There’s a reason that boxing skills are regularly incorporated into fitness boot camps and hardcore workouts – it’s often described as the most physically demanding sport on the planet!
Boxing is a powerful workout that activates all the major muscle groups in your body.
Not only does it get your heart rate flying — which burns a lot of calories — but it also strengthens and tones muscles and develops your balance and coordination.
Plus, it’s full of variety — you’re much more likely to feel engaged right through a boxing workout than if you were, say, running for extended periods on a treadmill.
Bringing a boxing routine onto your trampoline exercise not only makes it more fun but creates a fat-blasting, pulse-raising power workout!
Regular boxing intensity combined with additional bouncing on a flexible mat means that you engage your core, boost your strength and push your balance. Both your legs and arms are continuously engaged.
No gloves or boxing partner? No problem. This simple boxing routine combines classic moves with calorie-crunching bouncing.
Alternate between one-minute rounds of each exercise and 30 seconds of bouncing cool-downs in between.
Jabs: Hold your fists up in front of your chin, with your legs spread for balance and your knees bent slightly.
Keep your core tight and give short sharp punches, alternating between the use of your left and right arms. Use all your power, and try not to rotate your torso too much.
(30 seconds of bouncing)
Hooks: Jump into the same boxing stance that you used for the ‘Jabs’ exercise. This time, hook each arm around from the side of your body (again alternating between left and right), imagining that you’re hitting the side of a boxing bag.
Keep your unused fist up in front of your face for balance while the other arm hooks.
(30 seconds of bouncing)
Uppercuts: Imagine someone is holding pads at eye level, and they're facing the ground; each punch you throw is coming up to hit it... This type of punch comes from below.
Remember to keep your stomach tight and your feet grounded.
(30 seconds of bouncing)
Dips: Stand with your feet spread and facing forwards, and dip from side to side — holding your fists in towards your chest. Mimics a boxer dipping to avoid a hit. Get nice and low!
When we think of yoga, most of us picture deep breathing, slow stretches, and flowing movements on a mat on the floor ... but a trampoline?
Believe it or not, your flexible trampoline mat is a fantastic base for yoga!
Not only is it gentle on your joints, but the surface is also soft and supportive, providing the ideal place to stretch and work out.
It's the perfect addition to any trampoline exercise workout!
Have a go at our quick, yoga beginner sequence, which will quieten the mind, warm the muscles and boost flexibility — all without having to leave your home.
Begin your trampoline yoga routine with Savasana—or the corpse/resting pose.
Lie on your back in the middle of your trampoline's mat. With your arms gently resting beside you, your fingers and toes naturally curling, and your eyes closed, begin deeply breathing in and out through your nose.
Take as long as you like in this position; there is no 'correct' time limit. You should feel serene by the time you are finished, and you should be maintaining your deep breathing.
Focus on breathing deeply in and out while on your trampoline, and then roll onto your stomach with your knees pulled in towards your chest.
Extend your arms straight out above your head, and gently relax into the stretch—letting them fall naturally.
Your forehead should be resting on the trampoline mat, and your eyes should be closed. Hold for the next couple of minutes.
From the child pose, bring your hands to either side of your body and push yourself up on your trampoline.
Your body should look almost like a table, with your straight abdomen propped up by your knees and hands. Make sure that you maintain your deep breathing.
To prevent any neck strain, hold your head in a neutral position, where it’s most comfortable. Hold for a minute or so.
From the cat pose, move into the Downward dog, which involves stepping out both feet behind you and extending them so they are straight on your trampoline.
Your arms should be extended in front of you, and your body should be resting on flat hands.
Make sure that your bottom is high in the air and that your legs are properly balancing on your toes. While deeply breathing into this stretch, pull your heels gently towards the mat.
Move your feet in together, then slowly bring your hands off the trampoline mat.
You should now be standing on both feet, with your top half curled in towards your knees.
Bring your arms in — your hands gently cradling the opposite elbow — and breathe deeply into the stretch.
After holding the rag doll pose for a minute on your trampoline, gently release your arms and slowly roll back into a straight standing position.
After a couple of deep breaths, raise your arms above your head, joining your hands in a point.
Exhale, and gently bend to one side – creating an arc with your upper body. Hold for a minute, then return to your standing position, and repeat on the opposite side.
