Mini Trampoline

Could anyone tell me if those mini trampolines give you much of a workout and how many calories they burn compared to walking?

yes i think it is a great workout. I think it tones your butt and legs more than just walking. Also your abs. i use it for 30 mins at a time using weights at the end for more of a work out. I listen to music while 'jumping' so that helps keep me motivated. I am not sure of the exact calories burned...

I use mine all the time and really like it. I don't seem to sweat as much when using it as I do when I'm walking though.

Yes . . .

am able to get my heart rate to the max with no problem. You are able to do a very vigorous workout without impact to your knees. I LOVE mine! There are also videos you are able to follow to avoid being bored. I have the Urban Rebounder. It's unique in that it folds and is higher quality than the cheap ones. http://www.urbanrebounder.com/ BUT I do suggest buying a cheap one to see if you like it to begin with.

Good luck!
