In this day and age that is packed with indoor activities – like video games, the internet, and endless television shows, a trampoline can be a valuable asset to the family. A trampoline allows your children to have an outlet for their energy – and to get exercise.

By using an outdoor trampoline, children have a place to go relax, have fun, and get in better shape. It is not only children that can benefit from a trampoline. Adults can use it too, and it is a great method for exercise and enjoyment – bouncing on an outdoor trampoline can provide many benefits to people of all ages. Trampolining is an excellent way to get fitter and healthier. You can improve your strength, flexibility, balance, co-ordination, agility and confidence.

Trampolines are a source of real fun for self and family. However, it is very valuable if one knows exactly what shape, size or type of trampoline, the different safety precautions one needs to take for a safe exercise routine.

On top of that, the forces going through your legs and hips help to build bone density giving you stronger bones. Trampolines are not as dangerous as you might expect providing that you use them correctly. Trying to do too much too soon isn't a good idea... your body needs time not only to learn new moves safely but also to adapt to the new stresses being put through it.

Mon, 07 May 2007 00:00:00 -0500

Trampolines are safe for recreational use under proper adult guidance and supervision. Trampolines should be used in accordance with the prescribed trampoline safety rules and guidelines.

Mentioned below are some safety precautions for trampolines which can help prevent serious trampoline injuries –

• Do not attempt somersaults. Serious injuries, paralysis or death may result.
• Do not allow more than one person on the trampoline at a time. Most accidents occur when two or more use the trampoline at the same time.
• Do not jump without mature, knowledgeable supervision, or without "spotters"
• To prevent access to the trampoline by toddlers, or the infirm; Do not allow the use of a ladder or step stool to mount / dismount the trampoline.
• Climb on and climb off the trampoline. Do not jump from trampoline to the ground as serious injuries may occur.
• Do not use trampoline when under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or other medication.
• Do not jump without the permission and knowledge of owner.
• Do not use the trampoline as a springboard to another object or surface.
• Do not wear jewelry while jumping. Remove sharp objects from pockets.
• Inspect for worn or missing parts before jumping is allowed.
• Respect your physical limitations. Do not jump if you are pregnant, or have circulatory ailments. Do not jump if you tired or short of breath.
• Focus your eyes on the edge of the trampoline. This will help keep your balance adjusted to the center of the mat.
• Avoid bouncing too high. To stop your bounce, flex or bend your knees as your feet come in contact with the trampoline.
