Guest guest Posted August 24, 2000 Report Share Posted August 24, 2000 Understand about the idea of using a rebounder, but what about jumping jacks. The cost effectiveness of the later is what I am after. I spend so much $ trying to cure myself, that I would like to cut corners where can. Really, really need to get the lymph moving though.

Really, really need to get the > lymph moving though. Thoughts? Jumping jacks would be fine...I still remember watching Jack LaLayne when I was a little kid, doing his routine. (He is still going at it, by the way, in his 80's, a very strong and healthy man!) Also, using a jump rope would work as well, in my opinion, and you may want to use all three just to provide some variation. A rebounder isn't all that expensive, though. You can get one that would suffice at Sears for about $25. Patty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 24, 2000 Report Share Posted August 24, 2000 Jumping Jacks are fine - for people who have strong, healthy bones and tissue in their legs and feet. Otherwise, they can be very jarring, and cause a host of problems of their own (just like running). I would strongly advise caution when buying or using a cheap rebounder. The really cheap ones can cause a lot of problems too. I was amazed at the difference when I compared them about two years ago. I was at one of the expos, and saw Hall and his 'Cellerciser' rebounder. Someone on one of these lists had challenged me to try it, and after I did, I bought one - it was that much better. This one is a pleasure to use, while the other one was starting to hurt my knees and ankles. One thing the cheap ones are good for, though, is for people who are in really bad shape - gently bouncing, while keeping your feet on the mat, doesn't seem to cause any problems, and goes a long way to accomplishing your goal.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2000 Report Share Posted August 25, 2000 Hi all, I wanted to add another option to this rebounder discussion. At the Optimum Health Institute in San Diego, they have these " bounce chairs " , which I think are supposed to do the same sort of thing as rebounding. They work a little bit like the bouncy swings that are made for babies. Except with the vounce chair your feet are still forward in front of your body (like a " normal sitting position " ). The chairs are not cheap (something like $200 or $300 I think).... still it is interesting that there is another option! Moria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
