25 Min Trampoline Beginner Cardio Workout | Low Impact Rebounding is probably Michelle Briehler‘s easiest rebounder workout. Her rebounder workouts are generally advanced and the few that she has tacked “beginner” onto the title were not really beginner level workouts. This one, however, is appropriate for beginners. But it’s also a fun cardio workout for any level of exercisere who wants an easier day. I would normally use a workout like this on my recovery day and follow it up with an extended stretch or some yoga. And that is one way I will use it in the future. But today I decided to just take it easy and do some feel good cardio at the end of my work day. There are no difficult exercises but Michelle does throw in some cross jacks which might not be appropriate for beginners; she does suggest an easier move if you are not ready for that. Overall, this was fun and low key. I did actually work up a sweat but I never needed to wipe it away. Michelle slips in some core work, too. Just 3:30 minutes and it, too, was easier than the advanced core work she usually includes in her works but I still felt it!
25 Min Trampoline Beginner Cardio Workout | Low Impact Rebounding is 24:53 minutes; 40 minute intro, 3:15 minute warm up, 3:30 minutes of core and 1:45 minute stretch. Michelle’s rebounder has a stability bar but she doesn’t really use it.
