Yay! Naomi Joy posted a new cardio + strength workout using the rebounder! I love her cardio + strength rebounder workouts–they are my absolute favorites. They are always awesome and intense and this one is no different. Mini Trampoline Workout / Cardio + Strength Dumbbell Circuit / Total Body Workout is total body strength workout done using the rebounder. This workout contains 6 circuits; each circuit contains 3 exercises–two strength exercises and one cardio exercise. Each circuit is done twice before moving on to the next circuit. The cardio exercises are all done on the rebounder. The majority of the strength exercises are done on the floor, but a few use the rebounder, too. This workout was a ton of fun. Naomi hits every muscle group and the rebounder cardio intervals are intense but not so intense that you are struggling to regroup for your strength exercises. After you complete the 6 circuits the workout ends with some core work then a thorough and feel good stretch. Another winner from Naomi! I burned 381 calories and got a great strength workout.
All of the exercises are all done interval style: 40 seconds of work followed by 20 seconds of recovery. There is a timer in the upper right hand corner of the screen counting down your intervals and recoveries. There is another timer in the upper left hand corner of the screen counting down the entire workout time minus the stretch. During the recoveries Naomi previews the next exercise. This workout is set to music with Naomi doing voice overs to point out proper form. During the core circuit at the end, Naomi shows modifications for the exercises.
Mini Trampoline Workout / Cardio + Strength Dumbbell Circuit / Total Body Workout is 50:31 minutes; 4:30 minute warm up and 5:30 minute stretch. Equipment: rebounder, dumbbells and a fitness mat. Naomi is using 20 pound/9kg and 10 pound/4.5 kg dumbbells. The weights listed below are what I used.

Happy Wednesday to you!
Today I did the partner workout to the one I did yesterday (https://youtu.be/6E36kid8Abw) and finished with Heather’s thigh/booty for my legs (https://youtu.be/Gtf1CjZv5vg).
Based on how sore I was feeling from yesterday’s back/shoulder workout, I expected this one to be as difficult. I was not disappointed. Once again, this targeted more than just chest/tri. There was also quite a bit of abs. Caroline does a 1-armed tricep push-up which I did not attempt. I did a cobra push-up instead. So yeah, another really challenging body weight only routine.

Sounds like another tough workout! Dumbbells aren’t required to get an excellent strength workout. I haven’t done Caroline’s but I have done Heather’s (https://2lazy4gym.com/2021/09/28/inner-outer-thighs-booty-workout-no-repeats-no-equipment/).
