IN AS LITTLE AS TWO WEEKS OF SPACE FLIGHT
ASTRONAUTS LOSE UP TO 15% OF BONE AND MUSCLE MASS!
ASTRONAUTS LOSE UP TO 15% OF BONE AND MUSCLE MASS!
 | Back in 1980, N.A.S.A. with concern and in need to help astronauts, did a study comparing jogging on a treadmill to Rebounding and the results showed that “rebounding is 68% more effective than jogging on a treadmill." Rebounding rebuilds bones and muscle quickly and effectively without any stress to the joints! Published in the Journal of Applied Physiology 49(5): 881-887, 1980 - |
Jogging vs. Rebounding

"When a person runs, the legs and feet receive most of the musculo-skeletal trauma of hitting a hard unforgiving surface, causing common injuries such as shin splits and knee problems. Injuries are especially prevalent when the natural shock absorbing system of the body becomes too fatigue to do its job correctly. This fatigue throws added strain on already tired muscles, bones, ligaments and tendons, often forcing them beyond the rupture point.
But the surface of the trampoline is forgiving. The entire body, not just the lower extremities, share the Gravitational Force Impact. This makes it possible to exercise the entire body without causing undue pressure to any part of the body.
Rebound exercise is two to four times as efficient as treadmill jogging, it efficiently uses the vertical forces of acceleration and deceleration to produce internal loading by directly opposing the gravitational pull; each part of the body is receiving the necessary environmental stresses it needs to become stronger; less oxygen is used and less demand is placed on the heart, stimulating the whole body".
N.A.S.A. study determined that Rebounding was and still is an effective method for rehabilitating astronauts after space flight.
To read all of the study or for more information about this astounding exercise concept, please call the American Institute of Reboundology, Inc. toll free 1-888-464-JUMP (5867), they have the most extensive collection of educational materials related to Rebound Exercise, Rebound Aerobics and Resistive Rebounding. Let them know "Save Your Joints" referred you. Thank you!
