“Training on the bellicon® is a plus for your health and is barely comparable to any other sport.
- While training on the bellicon®, your heart, circulation, spine, joints, and brain activity are all working at maximum capacity.
- According to a study by the University of San Diego, the mini-trampoline achieves an exceptionally high rate of adherence to training. Continuity of training was compared between ergometry, treadmill, and mini-trampoline. After 10 weeks, only 5% of cyclists were still training, 31% among treadmill users, while 58% were still regularly getting on the mini-trampoline.
- As a whole-body workout, it strengthens coordination and improves short-term memory.
- Braking against the mat produces a particularly firming effect, known as eccentric muscle training.
- Training on the mini-trampoline means training in a state of weightlessness, which triggers a very high renewal stimulus for every cell in the body – from head to toe.
- The “dancing jog” on the mini-trampoline acts like a lymphatic and venous drainage and simultaneously reduces swelling in the legs.
- Through targeted training of the deep leg muscles, particularly at thigh level, the risk of spraining an ankle is noticeably reduced.
- The risk of fractures following a fall at an older age also decreases proportionally, and Parkinson’s patients experience improved mobility.
- Training on the mini-trampoline has proven its effectiveness in an age of stress and a tendency toward depression.
- You can precisely train the movement sequences that are constantly repeated on a ski slope. So you’ll be perfectly prepared for your winter holiday.”
