A practical and beneficial addition to any backyard trampoline is therabands, or any other type or resistance training device. These devices will provide an environment to create an expanse of upper body exercises to accompany the lower body and cardiovascular benefits of bouncing. Through resistance training, one can workout their triceps, biceps, pectorals, and the many muscles of the back. By combining the exercising of these specific upper body muscle groups to an individual’s workout, one can truly create a total body routine from his or her backyard trampoline. The therabands or resistance bands can be used to strengthen and hone many forms of exercise (running, golfing, swinging a bat). The advantages only end where the imagination does, so I would recommend adding these devices to any backyard trampoline.
