Exercise - Fight Fatigue
If you don't exercise, get your house in order because your
life could be cut short from stroke, coronary problems or
cancer. How does rebounding deliver so much more than other
exercises? Researchers and exercise experts who have studied
rebounder systems have found that because the user goes
from weightlessness at the top of the bounce cycle followed
by being exposed to several Gs (Gravity forces) during the
rebound phase, there are unexpected health benefits that
take place on a cellular level. Think of rebounding as a
total-body experience from the inside out. Each bounce is
like a mini transfusion of oxygen and blood into every cell
in your body which now becomes several times heavier than
normal for a few brief moments. During that short interval
of added G forces, your skeleton and muscles exert as if
they were carring a very heavy weight. This period doesn't
last long and doesn't produce much strain, but is just long
enough to do some serious muscle and bone building. You
can also take advantage of this effect by holding small
weights in your hands. For the brief instant that the G
forces build up, the effect will be as if you were lifting
a weight 1.25 to 3 times as heavy as the one you're grasping
(the amount of change being determined by the height of
the bounce). During that time your muscles will do some
intense lifting, building up as if you had been working out
with a much heavier free weight. It doesn't feel intense.
It lasts only for a fraction of a second, but the work is
still being done, even if you're almost unaware of it. This
scientific use of G forces in exercise gives you the benefit
of lifting a heavy weight without the dangers and because
you're also bouncing to maintain this effect, you obtain
the aerobic effect equal to that of jogging or other moderate
workouts. In short, you're getting the best parts of all
possible exercises. An additional plus is an almost total
lack of injuries seen with many other aerobic activities.
Besides eating a balanced diet, the single most beneficial
thing you could do for your health is ''cellular-exercise.''
And that is where gravity plays a large part in boosting
your immune system. Rebounding not only builds muscular
strength, but cellular strength as well, hence cells are
healthier, more resilient disease-fighters. Because the
cells in the body live in an essentially zero-gravity environment,
it is necessary to alter the G force in order for the lymphatic
system(hence, the cancer-fighting immune system) to reap
the full benefits of exercising. Jogging, swimming or other
exercises cannot do this as they cannot offer the consistent
change in gravitational force that is needed. Rebounders
change the G forces from 0 up to 2 or more Gs on each bounce
cycle. As NASA discovered, rebounding is the only exercise
proven to exert the right amont of ''pull'' on the human
body down to the cellular level. The lymphatic system becomes
very active during exercise. What bouncing does is improve
the body's own immunological system hence, making us more
resistent to disease. Because the lymphatic system is equipped
with microscopic one-way valves that limit the direction
of its flow, rebounding has the added benefit of turning
the whole body into a ''pumping machine'' that speeds the
fluid through the lymphatic vessels. This effect doesn't
take place with most other exercises, making rebounding
more ideal in achieving the goal of building a healthy
body and the key to longevity. When the lymph is activated
through jumping, it pulls toxins, bacteria and parasites
out of the body and sends those toxins to the liver for
eventual waste removal. With regular, quick removal of
toxins, the immune system is strengthened to the point
where it's almost impossible to get sick. Varicose veins
are also improved and the liver is helped to detoxify.
It also appears to strengthen connective tissue, so possibly
no more sagging jowls. Dr. Gus J. Prosch, Jr. of Biomed
Health Services notes that, ''With rebounding the membranes
around each cell become stronger as they demand more protein
from the body. These thicker membranes are better able
to fight off foreign invaders like germs, toxins, poisons
and other pollutants more effectively.'' Dr. Morton Walker,
a major writer and lecturer in the self-help and holistic
fields states that rebounding helps fight fatigue by toning
the glandular system to increase the output of the thyroid,
pituitary (which produces a growth hormone) and adrenal
glands; stengthens and nourishes the heart to fight heart
disease; improves circulation; reduces blood pressure;
aids muscle tone, training, performance and endurance while
building strength reserves; halts bone loss; boosts red
blood cells; increases and circulates oxygen; aids in lymphatic
circulation; promotes body and bone growth; stimulates metabolism;
enhances digestion and eliminaiton; reduces obesity; builds
alkaline reserve; aids peak cell function; improves coordination;
delivers muscle pain relief; eases women's ''time of the
month'' discomforts; maintains peak brain function; promotes
better sleep; minimizes the number of colds and stops premature
aging by reversing, preventing or diminishing hardening of
the arteries as well as lowering triglyceride levels. Rebounding
can also improve eyesight by promoting better circulation
within the eye to feed the cornia, iris and lens. Arthritis
pain? Get to the root of the cause: lymphatic congestion.
When lymph moves into your joints through the miracle of
rebounding harmful acids will be vacuumed from your painful
joints and tissues. Order direct from their site
