35 Minute Total Body Blast Rebounding Workout is full body cardio + strength workout done on the rebounder. It was a very enjoyable workout that can be used in different ways based on the weights you choose. Not only is today my recovery day but I did a full body workout yesterday and I am doing an upper body workout tomorrow so I used light dumbbells for this workout. Lighter dumbbells are appropriate anyway since this is a high rep endurance level strength workout. And you only use the dumbbells for the upper body work. The lower body is all bodyweight. So to use this for a strength day workout, you would need a variety of dumbbells appropriate for whatever muscle group you are working and for the lower body you could add ankle weights. Or you can just do it like I did this morning–light weights for a an easier workout. For the cardio Claire sets everything to a song. She puts together a combo and you repeat that combo until the next song starts and she introduces a new combo. The lower body is done the same way. For the upper body you just do a lot of reps on one muscle group then move onto the next muscle group.
35 Minute Total Body Blast Rebounding Workout is 38:28 minutes; 35 second intro, no designated warm up (though the first song is the easiest combo) and 2 minute stretch. Equipment: rebounder and dumbbells. Claire is using 3kg/6.6 pounds. I used 6 pound weights for everything.
