BOUNCE IT OUT

-

Tiny trampoline­s aren’t just for overactive toddlers. Kate Beckinsale has been raving about the La-based Lekfit classes she does from home (“It makes you feel kind of jolly,” she says). NASA also use trampoline­s as part of their astronauts’ workouts, as they say it’s 68 per cent more effective than running.

IS IT REALLY FITNESS, THOUGH?

Jumping is a brilliant high-impact cardiovasc­ular workout and really gets the blood pumping around your body. It’s kind on your joints, as the springs absorb the impact, but after a few minutes, you’ll really feel it working your quads and glutes.

WHERE CAN I LEARN?

The beauty of bouncing is that it’s perfect to do at home. You can pick up a mini trampoline fairly cheaply and sign up to an online class such as Frame’s Rebounding – a 30-minute sweat sesh that’s guaranteed to leave a spring in your step. Drop-in classes cost as little as £5 and can be booked at Online.moveyourfr­ame.com.
