TIGHTENING SKIN

Tightening skin takes on great importance when we hit the big 40. As gravity tends to pull things down, our muscles start to lengthen and our skin starts to sag.

Tightening skin becomes a primary concern when we see wrinkles on our faces and necks, cellulite on our thighs, baggy flesh under our upper arms, flab around our midsections and bulges around the bra strap area - the list goes on and on. And with each passing day, we find something new and unsightly in our bodies.

Tightening skin can even turn into an obsession as we look for ways and means to counteract the effects of time and gravity on our bodies. We may experiment with all brands of expensive creams. We may also undergo age-defying treatments.

These treatments may include liposuction, microcurrent, microdermabrasion, Intense Pulse Light, Thermage or Botox. And as the situation becomes seemingly more hopeless, we may even consider cosmetic surgery as a last resort.

All these are superficial approaches to skin tightening that are temporary fixes at best. Furthermore, the fix is sometimes not what we had originally hoped for. A conventional facelift, for example, simply stretches skin over the same old flabby muscles. Botox, on the other hand, paralyzes these muscles.

A better alternative to these temporary fixes would be a good workout. Exercise results in the shortening of the muscles, which in turn, leads to firming, toning and skin tightening from within.

Rebounding on David Hall’s Cellerciser®, his top quality mini trampoline, will do the job most efficiently and effectively. Bouncing flexes your muscles and gives your skin the benefits comparable to an actual facial massage.

Furthermore, the up and down movement of bouncing gets circulation going through your tightening skin layers. As circulation is enhanced, the toxic products that need to come out and the oxygen that needs to go in flow much more efficiently.

Besides tightening skin and improving circulation, rebounding gets rid of those fat deposits under the skin. These deposits cause skin to sag as the skin loses its elasticity. Rebounding stimulates, circulates, strengthens and improves the efficiency of every cell in the body - skin cells included.

As a result, wrinkles, cellulite, flab and bulges are diminished. Sagging skin takes on a new resilience and color. Complexion looks healthier and more alive.

Truly, rebound exercises are the most natural and non-invasive solution to the concern of tightening skin.

  1. So very true, in no time at all, my overall body has become more define, slimmer abdomen, firmer thighs, firmer, arms, more define, tighter neck, tighter bottom, smoother skin, in less than a month's time. I have always had a slimmer body, this enhanced it into a body, I now love looking at, all while improving my overall health. I look forward to my excercises, daily, twice a day, as it is never boring, so much fun. Our bodies needs to excercise daily, without it, one will become flabby, weak, lose muscle tone, become older looking, unable to walk and function as we are meant to in this life, kinda of wish I had known this years ago, the benifits, yet I am happy to say one is never old to get started, out of all the excercises, this is the number one for me, my favorite thhing to do, my immune system is reaping the rewards, my cells, stamina, circulation, flexibility, I'm in love, totally awesome, try it you will soon see and start smiling, no aches and pains, just excellent health.

  2. But I know the bouncing impact of running has been shown to stretch and break collagen , does rebounding have this same effect ?

    1. No because the rebounder absorbs the impact!
