Rebounding
This basic trampoline exercise can be as difficult or easy as you want, depending on the effort you put into it. Exercising on a rebounder or mini trampoline is always a fun workout.
Stand in the center of the mini trampoline with feet slightly apart. This will be your basic starting stance for all rebounder exercises. Without lifting your feet off the mini trampoline, lightly bounce. If necessary, situate yourself near a sturdy object or wall that can be held on to for balance. As you become used to bouncing, lift your feet off the trampoline a little.

Jogging
Jogging on your rebounder will give you all the benefits of jogging (including increased leg strength) without the often painful effects of jogging on the hard ground. Twisting while you jump on the rebounder will strengthen your abdominal and hip muscles. Finally, using ankle or wrist weights or small barbells, can increase the amount of work your muscles do during rebounding. The more your muscles work, the stronger they will become.
Basic Walk
This is a good warm-up and cool-down exercise. From a basic starting stance, alternately lift your heels. Do not lift your toes off the trampoline. Swing your arms as you would while walking.
High Jumps
While using your mini trampoline to get in your daily cardio, switch it up a bit and do some double leg high jumps! By exerting extra energy between slower paced movements, you are sure to get a huge boost in your exercise routine!
Be Creative
You can use your mini trampoline to practice jumps used in dance, cheer, skate boarding etc.... Be creative in the vast amounts of moves and exercises that you can do on your trampoline!
