Longer air time is the opposite of what is desired when doing the Health Bounce. The Health Bounce takes place without the feet leaving the mat or no more than 2 inches. I try to avoid being in the air longer than .3 seconds per bounce. The single purpose reounders have the least air time while most multi purpose rebounders have a lot more air time. The Cellerciser has the least air time as the belly of the spring engages while it takes a lot more weight to engage the 2nd tier if only doing the Health Bounce.
Doing the Health Bounce is not necessarily fun. It is not supposed to be fun. Detoxing is not fun. Most people do the Health Bounce at night. At first when getting a rebounder, it can release many toxins and make people feel tired all day, especially if they haven’t done a gall bladder flush or liver flush or their liver can’t process the waste as it is too toxic. Many people do the Health Bounce for only 2 minutes a day until they work their way up to longer rebounding times. The shallower the bounce the better for lymphatic drainage. Staying low is the key to rebounding, not getting a higher G force by jumping higher and getting fewer bounces per minute. If there is too much air time, that means there is too much “throw” from the acceleration of the mat and not enough “pop”. The pop is what is needed to open up the one way valves in the lymphatic system.
