Urban Rebounding: Old Fashioned Hi-Lo

I enjoyed this video. It's not 28 minutes as a previous reviewer said, by my watch it was about 35 minutes including the warm up.

The moves were easy to execute but really got my heart rate up. I had to modify a couple of the "fancier" footwork moves like the knee up crossover.

I'm an high intermediate/low advanced exerciser, but new to the rebounder. I recently developed tendonitis in my ankles so have started using the rebounder for cardio. This video is perfect for a day when you don't have a lot of time or when you're doing cardio after your weight lifting workout.

This workout had no fun factor for me. As advertised, the moves are retro, reminding me of Jazzercise classes I took in the eighties.

The warm-up is about 7 minutes. (I’m figuring the first section was the warm-up, but it isn’t made clear.) The workout was about 25 minutes and the lame cool down/ stretch was just a few minutes.

The set was the usual UR set. The music is dull. The choreo, while possibly interesting, was so badly cued that I barely wanted to finish. Even the background exerciser I was watching got lost more than a few times. I don’t think they rehearsed this enough.

I did follow my DH’s advice and covered the right side of the TV screen so I wouldn’t have to watch “Ms. HappyPants”. That’s probably the only reason I got through the whole workout.

There isn’t really a proper cool down. The workout ends, you stop jumping and get off the rebounder. A quick stretch on one side. Then you get back on and bounce some more. Then get off and stretch the other side. The end.
