Trampoline BARRE Workout | Total Body Sculpt & Tone | REBOUNDER

Trampoline Barre Workout | Total Body Sculpt & Tone is a fun cardio + strength workout from Michelle Briehler. In this workout Michelle alternates cardio rebounding circuits with barre strength circuits that also use the rebounder. It’s not a total body workout as the title promises. Your lower body arms, shoulders and core all get worked but not you back or your chest. Michelle and crew set their rebounder on its side and hold onto its legs for balance during the lower body barre segments but if you have a T-bar like I do, you can do everything on the rebounder. During the lower body work, one of the background exercisers does a different version of all of the exercises. Instead of standing wearing a booty band/resistance loop, she is on all 4s on top of her rebounder doing mat lower body exercises. The first lower body barre segment really burned out my lower body. Everything else worked it nicely but no burn out. This workout was very enjoyable. I love cardio + strength workouts. The time always seems to fly by during them.

Trampoline Barre Workout | Total Body Sculpt & Tone is 48:07 minutes; one minute intro, 3 minute warm up and 3 minute stretch. Equipment: rebounder, light dumbbells (1-5 pounds) and a booty band/resistance loop. Michelle is using 5 pound hand weights and one pound lace up weights. I used 2 and 3 pound hand weights. I also used a strong booty band for all of the exercises where the band is above the knees and a rubber booty band for any exercise where the band is below the  knees.
