When you think of a mini trampoline, you probably picture something your kids might like to play with, but mini trampolines aren't just for fun. Rebounding, a type of exercise that uses a mini trampoline, has been touted by NASA as "the most efficient, effective form of exercise yet devised by man."
Rebounding burns approximately 15% more calories than walking or jogging and takes all of your major muscle groups through their full range of motion. Rebounding is the only form of exercise that strengthens, tones, and detoxifies every single cell in your body. It also encourages lymphatic drainage, which strengthens your immune system and prevents the development of disease.
The Importance of Your Lymphatic System
The lymphatic system is a subset of your circulatory system and is responsible for transporting a clear, colorless fluid that flushes toxins from your body. This fluid is called lymph and its proper flow is critical to proper immune system function.
You may not be aware of this but your tonsils and adenoids are a part of your lymphatic system and they are your first line of defense against harmful germs and contaminants.
Unfortunately, with tonsillectomies and adenoidectomies accounting for more than half a million US surgeries, many have lost this defense, even though these two common
operations have been found to be largely ineffective.
The spleen is your largest lymphatic organ, which produces the lymphocytes that create antibodies that fight off foreign invaders. Part of your spleen also acts a filtration system, which is responsible for removing old and damaged red blood cells from your body.
