Before starting any exercise on the mini trampoline, you should do the warm up exercises to prevent any injury or muscle pull.

Trampoline contact bounce is a good warm up and cool down exercise. To do contact bounce, keep your feet shoulder-width apart with slightly bent knees and put your hands on your waistline. Bounce gently without your feet leaving the mat.
Another very effective warm up exercise is the trampoline foot tap in which you keep your body in the position used for the contact bounce and shift your weight to one side. Then tap your one foot out to the opposite side and start bouncing steadily.
Now the best exercise to start with is the lower body stretch. In this exercise you place your feet shoulder-width apart and put your hands behind your back. Now, bend over as if you were going to touch your toes. Hold this position for thirty seconds and repeat the movement ten times.
Floor stretch is another effective exercise. To perform this exercise, sit on the floor with your legs stretched apart. Keeping your lower body in this position, pull your upper body toward one thigh. Hold for thirty seconds and repeat on the other side.
Knee raise is the perfect workout for weight loss. To do the knee raise, raise one knee to just above the waistline while bouncing. Repeat the movement ten times on each side. After completing the exercise, go back to the steady contact bounce.
After completing your mini trampoline exercises you should do the cool down exercises to prevent unwanted injuries. If you use this trampoline weight loss program along with a healthy meal plan, you will begin to see a steady weight loss within six to eight weeks.
