Earth & Owl: 30 Minute Menopause HIIT Trampoline Rebounder Workout Perimenopause Belly Fat Workout

30 Minute Menopause HIIT Rebounder workout is an interesting rebounder workout from Nikki @ Earth & Owl. The format for this workout is 2 minutes of intense work followed by 4 minutes of active recovery. But that is kind of loose times. Since each sprint interval and recovery period are set to songs, most of the sprint intervals are actually longer than 2 minutes and the last move in the recovery is frequently less than one minute. According to my Apple Watch I burned 246 calories. It shows my heart rate lowering then peaking but I think I need to tighten my watch band because the early peaks actually turn into “breaks”–no heart rate recorded. So I can’t accurately report how high my heart rate went until the final peak (sprint interval), which was recorded, and it was in Zone 5. I was initially excited about this workout because the sprint intervals are some of my favorite moves, but the reality is that doing them all out for 2 minutes gets tiring but not in the way you expect. Wacky jacks is a good example. Wacky jacks is just Happy Monkey, which is one of my favorite rebounder moves, but by the end of the 2 minutes my shoulders were starting to ache!
