Remember as a kid, the fun you had jumping on the trampoline? Soooo… much fun right? But after a couple of kids and life in general, there is no way you will get on a mini-tramp?
Well! Then it’s time to let you in on a little secret. Rebounding actually helps you build your pelvic floor strength. Yup, you heard me right, you can jump your way to a healthier and happier down-there region.
Bet that's going to have your brain and you bouncing off the walls! Yup! Definitely talking about rebounding on a mini trampoline - it really is the coolest thing since sliced bread.
Now, I know what you're thinking. "I have had kids and it is to be expected. It is natural?" AHHHH….. HELL NO! We all know your pelvic floor muscles are responsible for keeping everything in place down there and working right. And who doesn't want that. And don't get me started about what happens when you sneeze or laugh - once again - NOPE! - NOT NATURAL! (Ok some of us may have issues related to prolapse and not just weak PF - so if thats the case then rebounding is not for you) But if you want to be more confident, you need to make your pelvic floor strong and healthy again.
But here's the thing, Kegel exercises can be a real snoozefest (and many do them wrong, do too many – all of which will not correct the issue). That's where rebounding comes in! It's like doing Kegels on steroids. Not only will you be getting a great workout, but you'll also be laughing your butt off as you bounce around like a maniac on a mini trampoline.
And let's not forget about all the other benefits of rebounding. You'll improve your balance, coordination, and lymphatic circulation. Plus, it's a low-impact exercise, so you can bounce your way to better health without putting too much stress on your joints.
You just need to start slow. No high tucks and splits for a bit and big bounces may be a no-no. But if you have weak pelvic floor muscles – then bouncing will get you great results in a short space of time - if you persevere with it. (I would also recommend having a chat to your local pelvic floor physio - they can give you heaps of hints and tips on how to improve your particular situation quickly - Check out PhysioVida if you don't currently have a pelvic floor physio)
So, what are you waiting for? Join us at Boogie Bounce and start bouncing your way to a stronger, healthier, and happier pelvic floor! Your bladder (and your confidence) will thank you later.
