“Everything begins with your core,” Bari Studio founder Alexandra Bonetti says. “Engaging it while bouncing will improve your stability, power and speed.”

Joyful. Free. Energized. And toned. That’s how doing your cardio on a trampoline can make you feel.

A-list fans, including Chrissy Teigen and Reese Witherspoon, love it—as will anyone looking to burn calories in a flash. (So, everyone?)
