The Anatomy of Bouncing – Losing Weight with trampoline
When you engage in bouncing, your body must provide fuel for your muscles to keep them working efficiently.
A series of reactions take place inside your cells, which use – in part – your stores of carbohydrates and fat as forms of energy (hello weight loss!):
- Your muscles tap into your stores of glucose and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to kickstart your workout. Because your body must create ATP using oxygen, your breath-rate goes up to increase the amount of oxygen filtering through your body.
- During this process, your lungs also get in on the action – making your breathing even heavier to further increase the amount of oxygen that you’re taking in.
- Your heart-rate rises to supply more oxygen-filled blood to your muscles. The fitter you are, the easier that this process is.
- While your body is focusing on getting oxygen to the muscles, it slows down other unnecessary functions, i.e. digestion in the stomach.
- Your brain sparks up, becoming more focused and alert. It also recognises the exercise as a form of stress, and releases a number of chemicals in response. These include endorphins and serotonin, responsible for giving you that natural buzz at the end of your workout.
- Your core temperature rises, resulting in the dilation of the blood vessels in the skin allowing you to cool down more quickly.
