From rope wall yoga to simulated surfing, exciting new fitness classes seem to be cropping up everywhere. One particular class we love: cardio trampoline workouts at the Bari Studio in Nyc.
You know that trampolines get the heart pumping (just think back on all of your childhood bounce sessions!). When you probably didn’t realize it at the time, jumping on the trampoline is really a full-body workout. At the end of the jump, you use the muscles inside your legs to squat down low for leverage. So you have to keep the core engaged-both while you’re in mid-air and as you land-in to stay upright and stable.
For these reasons, plyometric exercise (which is also known as “jump training”) is a favorite among fitness fanatics. It really works the whole body and helps improve both speed and strength. Classic plyometric work includes fat-burning moves that make you breathless, for example jump squats and bench jumps.
Watch the recording with Bari Studio head trainer Tiffani Robbins to determine how you can spring (pun intended) fit using challenging exercises like jumping jacks, high knees, front kicks, and more. While the trampoline helps maximize the strength the body can take shape from this routine, you definitely don’t need one out of to do that bouncy 15-minute workout in your own home. Simply clear some space inside your living room and follow along as Tiffani demonstrates how to operate up a sweat as you bop around.
