Not only gymnasts or acrobats but there are many people whose
hobby is play trampoline. They either use it for competitive purposes or just to
have fun on it. They come in various shapes and sizes.
A trampoline is a kind of a fabric sheet device which has
spring connected to frames all around it. It is a very tight sheet which is
stretched and connected to a metal frame around it. When people bounce on it,
its elasticity helps the people to bounce back down several times before
landing safely.
Trampoline |
Very few people will know that trampolines are used in the
Olympics as a sport. The gymnasts perform many kinds of acrobatic on it. I have
seen trampolines in many places and loved them.. When I saw the trapeze artists
doing the stunts in the circus, they landed themselves on a trampoline. Hence I
always wanted to own one for myself. I got myfirst trampoline on my tenth birthday. It is big, round and blue in color. It is kept in the backyard
of my house. Earlier I only used for fun, jumping and twisting myself. I love
competing with my friends.
Advantages
of Trampolining
Till date I am still using my first trampoline. When I was a child, there were enclosures
attached to it but after growing I had them removed. Trampolines can be used to
stay healthy. Apart from having fun on it, one can easily lose those extra
layers of fat from the sides of your body. Instead of those tiring morning and
evening walks and workouts, it is easier to lose weight in trampolines but of
course in a right posture. Many people find it boring to exercise everyday but
trampolining can take away those non enthusiastic faces and unwanted stress.
You will be surprised to hear that trampolining ten minutes
everyday is equal to that of jogging and running around. First of all one does
not have to leave their house for exercising. Trampolining can improve and

How does it
Feel?
When we bounce on a trampoline, the elasticity takes away our
body shock unlike the hard surfaces such as the road. By bouncing continuously
can give your muscle a little stress but it also strengthens our bones when we
decelerate on the strong fabric. This will improve when our body get used to
the tension. This helps in solving the problem of brittleness of bones.
Apart from improving our physical health, it also takes care
of mental health of a person. Every time I bounce on it, it makes me happy and
puts a smile on my face and I start laughing. It makes you feel hopeful and
positive and gives you the urge to do more. Every time you bounce up, you can
get the feel of fresh air, so why not jump and make ourselves happy.
