Years later, I discovered there was a way to teach fitness classes using small trampolines, and I opened my own trampoline fitness company, called trampoLEAN. During my classes, people are on a trampoline for a full 50 minutes. We may do some low jumping for a couple minutes, then some push-ups, followed by some balance moves. It’s not an easy workout, but people have a great time when they let loose and have fun. Sometimes people worry that they will get injured on a trampoline. But the trampolines in my classes are very safe and low to the ground. The workouts are actually lower-impact than other types of exercises, such as running. Trampoline workouts help circulate blood and oxygen to all the tissues in the body, including the brain. They’re also calorie scorchers, and the repetitive movements of jumping up and down build healthy muscle. Most importantly, trampoline workouts are really fun. They take you back to the happy days of being a kid—which feels good for both the body and the mind. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Article","@id":"https://time.com/collections/guide-to-exercise/4833843/trampoline-workout/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/collections/guide-to-exercise/4833843/trampoline-workout/"},"headline":"Trampoline workout","datePublished":"2017-06-26T19:54:05.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-02T23:22:15.175Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/collections/guide-to-exercise/4833843/trampoline-workout/","keywords":[],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9e8cf1638e534665/6988d366fb4eac813e892a36/trampolean_ste4593-2.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Staff","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-staff/"}],"creator":"TIME Staff","articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9e8cf1638e534665/6988d366fb4eac813e892a36/trampolean_ste4593-2.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/collections/guide-to-exercise/4833843/trampoline-workout/","name":"Trampoline workout"}}]}] ```
