Trampoline exercises?

I just recently bought a 12 foot trampoline, just wondering if it's good for fitness or if anyone can recommend some exercises, ta!

trampoline's are the greatest things in the world!

i had one when i was younger and i'm pretty sure it was one reason i was able to run so fast, i'd spend a couple of hours a day on it bouncing around with my friends

a trampoline is for bouncing, i suggest bouncing would be the best excercise...possibly bouncing as high as you can for an undetermined amount of time might be even more benficial

Yeah it's so much fun! Just need to get the weather right :cool:

I just got a mini tramp and I love it! I usually just bounce, but sometimes I switch it up and bounce side to side. I've also heard that you can bounce on one leg, but just 5 minutes of bouncing kills me and fatigues my ankles (I have a joint disorder and my ankles have born the brunt of it), so I haven't tried that yet.
Have fun with it!

Thanks! It's definitely tougher than it looks, I thought it might be a fun way to keep fit, more fun than a cross trainer!
