My kids have one in the back yard and I have been thinking about using it for Cardio to avoid the traffic both vehicle and pedestrian. I under stand that a trampoline is suppost to be great for your joints-less wear. -------------- I will get to it as soon as I am done lifting.

It has a weight restriction of 185 pounds, though, so I'm afraid I may bust through it at 228...I love the thing and am tempted anyway....let me know if you go for it! -------------- Veda MISERY IS OPTIONAL HAVE A GREAT DAY!

The last time I got on one was a few years ago and it was a blast - it left a good burn in my calves, thighs and buttocks, and when I did some twists at the waist that was pretty good, too! Let me know how your workout went, I probably won't do mine until tomorrow or Friday as I think I worked out a bit too hard yesterday and got too little sleep and feeling really blllaaahhhh today so I'm going to keep my workout a lighter today. GOOD LUCK! BOUNCE BOUNCE!! -------------- Veda MISERY IS OPTIONAL HAVE A GREAT DAY!
