The Action of bouncing up and down against gravity without trauma to the musculoskeletal system sone of the most beneficial aerobic exercises ever developed.
– It provides an increased G-force (gravitation load), which strengthens the musculoskeletal systems.
– It protects the joints from the chronic fatigue delivered by exercising on hard surfaces.
– It helps manage body composition and improves muscle-to-fat ratio.
– It increases capacity for respiration.
– It circulates more oxygen to the tissues.
– It establishes a better equilibrium between the oxygen required by the tissues and the oxygen made available.
– It aids lymphatic circulation by stimulating the millions of one-way valves in the lymphatic system.
– It tends to reduce the height to which the retrial pressures rise during exertion.
– It lessens the time duding which blood pressure remains abnormal after severe activity.
– It assist in the rehabilitation of a heart problem.
– It increases the functional activity of the red bone marrow in the production of red blood cells.
– It improves resting metabolic rate so that more calories are burned for hours after exercise.
– It caused muscles t perform in moving fluids through the body to lighten the heart’s load.
– It decreases the volume of blood pooling in the veins of the cardiovascular system preventing chronic edema.
– It encourages collateral circulation by increasing the capillary count in the muscles and decreasing the distance between the capillaries and the target cells.
– It strengthens the heart and other muscles in the body so that they work more efficiently.
– It allows the resting heart to beat less often.
– It lowers circulating cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
– It lowers low-density lipoprotein (bad) and increases high-density lipoprotein (good) within the blood holding off the incidence of coronary artery disease.
– It promotes tissue repair.
– It increases the mitochondria count within the muscle cells, essential for endurance.
– It adds to the alkaline reserve of the body, which may be of significance in an emergency requiring prolonged effort.
– It improves coordination between proprioceptors in the joints, the transmission of nerve impulses to and from the brain, transmission of nerve impulses and responsiveness of the muscle fibers.
– It improves the brain’s responsiveness to the vestibular apparatus within the inner ear, thus improving balance.
– It offers relief from neck and back pains, headaches, and other pain caused by lack of exercises.
– It enhances digestion and elimination processes.
– It allows for deeper and easier relaxation and sleep.
– It results in better mental performance, with keener learning processes.
– It curtails fatigue and menstrual discomfort for women.
– It minimises the number of colds, allergies, digestive disturbances and abdominal problems.
– It tends to slow down atrophy in the ageing process.
– It is an effective modality by which the user gains a sense of control and an improved self-image.
– It is enjoyable!
