A condensed rebounder workout

When you don't have time to play on the rebounder for 45 minutes, but still want a fun, effective workout her is a 12 minute routine I came up with and basic descriptions of each movement.

2 minutes of health bounce (feet don't leave the mat, land on heels)

1 minute strength bounce (bounce as high as your body, trampoline, and ceiling allows you to)

1 minute with hand weights (alternate between bicep curls, front raises, overhead presses, and side raises)

1 minute of twisting (imagine being a skier going through moguls, the upper body stays stationary, twist at the waist and throw your lower body side to side keeping knees together and parallel)

1 minute of clock bouncing (90 degrees hops around the trampoline one direction then reverse the other direction)

2 minutes of alternating between side kicks, jogging in place and front kicks (this is a killer!)

2 minutes of alternating between the seated V bounce and the basic seated bounce.

2 minutes of the health bounce to cool down

I keep meaning to wear the heart rate monitor to get and idea how many calories this burns...
