Another fabulous rebounder workout from Naomi Joy! I love all of her rebounder workouts but her cardio + strength rebounder workouts are my favorites and this is another winner. Trampoline Workout with Weights / Strength & Cardio Intervals with Dumbbells / Full Body Workout is a total body metabolic cardio + strength workout. The strength work is done on the floor and the cardio is done on the rebounder. I really like the structure of this workout. Each circuit plays out a little differently which keeps you guessing. This workout is made up of 6 cardio + strength circuits and ends with one core/back circuit. This workout is done interval fashion; for Circuits 1-4 the exercises are done for 45 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of recovery. For the last 3 circuits the intervals times vary and I have noted what they change to in the breakdown below. There is a timer in the lower right hand side of the screen, counting down the entire workout time. There is another timer in the upper left hand corner of the screen counting down the intervals and recoveries. During the recoveries Naomi previews the next exercise.
This workout creeped up on me. Naomi does the strength exercises slow and controlled, often pausing briefly at the top of a move. Because of this I had to lift lighter than I normally would on some of the exercises. Circuit 3 is a lower body burn out! That was my favorite circuit–I loved that one! And the last 2 circuits–OMG. I was hitting burnout during the mat strength exercises in Circuit 6 and exercise 3 of the Core & Back Circuit–OMG, I had to let my dumbbell rest on the floor behind my head a few times on the final exercise–just for a few seconds, but my arms/shoulders were burning! Another excellent and thorough total body strength workout.
Naomi sets a lot of her workouts outdoors in front of beautiful and/or interesting backdrops. She chose a very unique setting for this workout. It is set in front of old dilapidated and abandoned buildings. On her Facebook page she shares that the workout is set in Hastings Park in Vancouver. In the comments below this post there is some discussion about the setting. It is actually the remains of a Japanese internment camp from WW2. Not only does Naomi give you excellent and intense workouts, but it is a learning experience as well! I was not aware of that piece of history.
Trampoline Workout with Weights / Strength & Cardio Intervals with Dumbbells / Full Body Workout is 54:53 minutes; 6 minute warm up and 5:30 minute stretch. The warm up starts on the floor then after approximately 4 minutes it moves to the rebounder. The stretch is done on the rebounder. Equipment: a rebounder, fitness mat and dumbbells. Naomi is using 10 and 15 pound dumbbells. The weights listed below are what I used. I also used a resistance band for the second to last exercise in the final circuit. You need some floor space for this workout or the ability to quickly get your rebounder out of the way. The first 4 circuits are done for 45 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of rest.

Core & Back Circuit: (exercises 1-3 are done for 60 seconds of work followed by 20 seconds of recovery and the last 2 exercises which are done for 45 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of recovery)
- Lay on back on mat holding one DB in both hands, arms/DB are extended to ceiling, straight legs are raised to ceiling, alternate lowering then raising straight legs while also doing pull overs with DB (one 25# DB)
- Repeat #1 but this time raise and lower both legs at same time, arms are still doing pullovers (one 25# DB)
