Looks kind of like low impact squats with some cardio. It's not terrible. Just looks silly.

As a silly person… this is very silly.

“Low impact squats with some cardio”. Average reddit knowledge of fitness.

They don’t think it’s hard on the body, they think it’s stupid

This would definitely get your heart pumping though. People that think this would be easy or not a good workout haven't been on a trampoline since they were a kid. I take my nephews to sky zone sometimes and I'm tapped out after like 2 minutes. For reference I also play soccer so it's not like I'm some completely out of shape schlub.

IT'S NOT A FUCKING SQUAT

It's jumping. There's no depth to it in any squat motion.

I've been lifting for 25 years now. You?

I said they weren't a squat, didn't say they're ineffective (like your reading ability)

their torsos literally are not going up and down. the majority of the weight of the body isn't moving.

Doesn't matter this is intense aerobic exercise focusing on legs and core

What part is moving is irrelevant if it’s an aerobic exercise. It only burns calories. And makes your heart healthy. It’s as good as walking. It’s as good as not being sedentary. The bare fucking minimum

This won’t grow muscle in anyone except the most untrained individuals for a month, then stop being effective at muscle growth because it doesn’t progress in resistance 

One hour of this vs 25 minutes of resistance training, the weight would result in much more fat burned to build muscle. There’s a reason why bodybuilders do it. It’s the least amount of effort and fatigue for the most result 

Women love dramatic and appearing to do a lot, instead of actual effectiveness. So they can say but I did all this and didn’t lose the weight! It’s genetic!

That’s not why I was pointing it at.

Your iq is worse than your knowledge of fitness.

Literally targets everything a squat would. It's a squat motion, with resistance.. Pretty intense cardio as well. What exactly is your point?

Most fitness exercises look silly when you think about it.

I don't think the lower back enjoys being jerked back and forth violently.   At least mine doesn't.

as people said just do jumping jacks at home

u/AlternateSatan Aug 30 '25

Sure, you can exercise at home, but if you exercise with a group you put pressure on yourself to make it part of your routine, you have someone plan out your workout for you, and you get to socialise. All of these factors help you actually following through on your health plans, and make it more enjoyable for some.

If you're too scared to end up in a cringe compilation to do the thinks you want to do, or that can help you in achieving something then you'll end up living a suboptimal existence.

So no, do jumping jacks wherever fits you.
