Does Rebounding For Lower Blood Pressure Work?When it comes to menopause and beyond one of the biggest challenges can be maintaining a state of wellness where you can have lower blood pressure, acceptable cholesterol, a good diet, good resting heart rate, and you can escape the insulin resistance threat.
I had a client who came to rebounding in a state of stress. She had been to the doctor to be told her BP was up, her cholesterol was 6 and climbing, and blood sugars were also not great. So she took to rebounding, following the Rebound For Wellness Basic Programme first and then the Rebound For Wellness Intermediate programme. 6 years on from that time and now aged over 75, this amazing woman is delighted to report that she is still rebounding, because it is helping to keep her levels down. I shared this great feedback with another client who has just been given that news of high BP, high cholesterol and insulin resistance. She began rebounding twice a day. What she has noticed is after the rebounding times, her blood pressure is markedly lower than at other times with fluctuations from 154/85 when not rebounding to 115/78 after 10 minutes rebounding. This is an astounding change and is what has been recorded in the first weeks of rebounding to help change blood pressure readings, but remember that exercise on its own will not fix his problem, however it will help. It is because rebounding has been proven to be 68% more effective than jogging by NASA scientists back in the late 1970's. This means that less is more when you rebound. So you do not have to do a lot on a rebounder to get the best results from it. In his book 'Rebound Exercise - The Ultimate Exercise For The New Millennium' (2006), Chapter 14, How Much Exercise Is Enough, Albert E Carter recalls a study carried out by Stephen Blair at the Institute of Aerobics Research, Dallas, Texas which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (3rd of November 1989). Blair discovered that there is a strong relationship between fitness and mortality rates saying that even moderate levels of fitness protect against early death. The study researched fitness along side other risk factors for early death and the greatest results seemed to be for women who when they had a good moderate level of fitness tended to have much better blood pressure outcomes decreasing their risks by as much as 1828%. Now that is a staggering figure and most of us do not need to get to that level of fitness but this does highlight how rebounding daily to a level where your breathing rate increases and you can feel your body being worked even a little will bring great benefits. Blairs conclusion was that higher levels of physical fitness appeared to delay mortality primarily due to lowered rates of cardiovascular disease and cancer. Al Carter maintains that a good 5 minute workout twice a could could be enough, but for those of us who cannot do that 'good' level, slightly longer on the rebounder will give us the same results because again rebounding is 68% more effective than jogging so by that comparison it is already a moderate form of exercising and when you use the Rebound For Wellness Programmes you can get into rebounding so gently giving you moderate exercise at an easy and doable pace.
