I am having little luck making myself go to the gym to do the typical stuff (treadmill, eliptical, ect.) and was wondering if anyone uses a mini trampoline? I'm thinking of buying one to get some cardio (and fun!) in every day. Has anyone had success with one?

Good question. I have one. I bought it at a charity auction only because no one else bid on it. It's in my attic....not really doing me any good there!

It gets boring really fast...save up your money and buy a good treadmill...it is worth it!! I have a collection of ab dolly's, twisters, trampolines, kettlebells, wts, straps, cords, and more and my best calorie burns are from interval workouts on the treadmill. I have a personal trainer and do use all that stuff occasionally, but my money is on a TM.

On the other hand, if you could pick up a used trampoline for a couple of bucks, it is worth it to see if you like it. I know many ppl with trampolines and no one is using it in the long run.

I couldn't make it through maintenance without all this exercise. I hope you can find an activity you can stick to and enjoy.

Best wishes,

Mimi

Thanks for the advice!!
