Introduction
Mini-trampoline rebounding exercise (MRE) is a long time
knownandverypopularfitnessworkout.Thefirstresearch
in this field began in the 1980s with preliminary
stud-iesby Carter [1] andWhite [2]. In the firstinstance, the
authors attempted to outline the characteristics of the rebound while describing the effects onthe human body. Subsequently,otherstudiesonreboundcarriedoutby Bhat-tacharya et al. confirmed the beneficial effects of this particulartrainingonthehumanbody,especiallyinpeople exposedtoabsenceofgravity[3].
Exercise on the mini-trampoline consists of a multi-componentapproachwhich involves strength andbalance training, physical fitness, body stability, coordination of muscleresponsesandspatialorientation[4—10].
Duetothemultipleeffectsofreboundingonmotion pat-terns,severalrecent studieswereundertakenfocusingon theusageofmini-trampoline.Someoftheseweretailored toevaluateitseffectonimproving athletes’performance
[11,12]while others investigatedtherole ofMRE training in improving balance ability and movement coordination
[13—15]. Besides, studies on the use of MRE protocols in specialpopulationsareincreasing,withtheaimtohighlight its usefulness in medical rehabilitation treatment and its positivepsychologicaleffects[14—18].
DespitethespreadandinterestinMREasafitness work-out, only a few studies dating back to 1990s examined the exerciseintensity (ExI)duringan MREsession [2,4,8]. Indeed,littleis knownabout theenergyexpenditure (EE) inthecontextofMRE,especiallyifmeasuredinoverweight andobesesubjects,whoseattendanceofgymfitnessclasses has been continuously increasing in the last decade [19]. Conversely,theassessmentofEEandExIwouldbe particu-larlyusefultoclarifywhetherMREcanimprovetheoverall healthstatusofpeoplewhoperformthisspecificexercise. In addition,such approachcould revealwhetherthe MRE isan effectiveactivity forthoseindividuals,suchas over-weightwomen,whohaveaparticularneedtofollowspecific exercise prescription guidelines as recommended by the AmericanCollegeofSportMedicine(ACSM)[20,21].
Starting a program of physical training is particularly encouragedinindividualswithahighercardiovascularrisk profile,wheretheexerciseisacknowledged asakeypoint
ofprimaryprevention.Thisisthecase ofperi-menopausal women,inwhomtherapiddepletionofovarianestrogensis linkedtotheonsetofcardiovascularriskfactorsortotheir greater expression, if already present [22]. Among these risk factors,weight gainand redistribution of bodyfat in anandroidshapebecomeprevalent[22].
Based onthesepremises,thepresent study wasaimed atassessingtheExIthroughtheanalysisofheartrate(HR), theEE,inkcalandmetabolicequivalent(MET),andthe rat-ingsofperceivedexertion(RPE)duringasessionofMREina groupofoverweightwomenfreeofcardiovasculardiseases.

Methods
2.1. Participants
Eighteen overweight women (36.7±10.6 years, BMI: 26.8±1.6kg/m2),whohadceasedanypracticeofphysical activityfor morethanoneyearpriortothepresentstudy wererecruitedfromthedatabase ofagymlocatedin the hinterlandareaofCagliari,Sardinia.
Inclusioncriteriawere:agebetween25and55years,BMI between25and29.9kg/m2 andsedentarylifestyle. Exclu-sioncriteriawere:thepresenceofotherriskfactors,except overweight,cardiovasculardiseasesandmajorsystemic ill-nessesthatcouldseriouslyreducetheirabilitytoparticipate in the study.The study wasapproved by ourinstitutional review board and conducted under the strict supervision of ourCardiovascularDiseaseUnit. Writteninformed con-sentwasobtainedfromallparticipantsbeforeenrollment, in accordancewiththe Declarationof Helsinki for Human Researchof1964(lastamendedin2000).Subjects’ charac-teristicsarereportedinTable1.
2.2. Anthropometricprofileandcardiopulmonary exercisetest
Bodyweight(kg)andheight(cm)weremeasuredby stan-dardized anthropometric procedures [23]. The bodymass index(BMI)wasalso calculated(kg/m2).Waist circumfer-ence(WC),hipcircumference(HC)andthewaist-hipratio (WHR)wereassessedbylinearmeter (tothenearest cen-timeter).
After admissionto thestudy,all women underwentan integratedmaximalcardiopulmonaryexercisetest(CPExT) on an electrically braked stationary cycle ergometer (Medical Graphics Corporation, Minneapolis; USA-Breeze Software, integrated with the XScribe 5, Mortara Instru-ment EuropeSrl)[20,24,25]. Heartrate andrhythm were continuouslymonitoredwitha12-leadECG,recordedevery 30seconds, both during exercise and for a post-exercise recoveryperiodof 10minutes.Arterialbloodpressurewas ascertained by the standard technique with a sphygmo-manometercuffplacedontheparticipant’sleftarm.Aramp protocol withan exerciseregimen of a 4min warm-up at 10W atapedal speedof60—65rpmwasapplied,inorder torecordthemainphysiologicalvariables.Breath-by-breath VO2,carbondioxideproduction(VCO2),minuteventilation (VE)andmaximum effort(watt)weremeasured.VO2max andtheconsumptionofoxygenattheanaerobicthreshold were expressed asabsolute values, standardized by body

2.3. Mini-trampolinereboundingexercisesession monitoring
Thesession consisted ofapproximately50minutesof MRE (46.1±5.0min),precededbya5-minutewarm-upand fol-lowedbya5-minutecool-down.Allwomenwerebeginners tothe MRE,soit was decidedto performthe monitoring sessionafteroneweekoffamiliarizationsessions.
Thetrainingwascarriedoutwiththeuseofeighteen indi-vidualmini-trampolineswiththefollowingcharacteristics: diameter 115cm, height 27cm, weight 13kg, dimensions of thespring 105/3.2mm, number of feet 8. Participants weretrainedandsupervisedbyaprofessionaltrainer spe-cializedinbothexerciseprescriptionforspecialpopulations (AdaptedPhysicalActivityMasterDegreeCourse)andMRE (RebgymBasicTrainer).Theroomtemperaturewasbetween 19◦and23◦C,ata<60%relativehumidity.Eachparticipant worearadio-telemetric heart ratemonitor (Polar Team2 Pro,Polar Electro Oy, Kempele,Finland) which registered
theheartratepattern continuouslyduringtheentire MRE session[26].DataresultingfromtheCPExTwereincluded inthecalculationofthePolarTeam2softwareandusedto obtaintheExI.

Results
All the examined women exhibited an anthropomet-ric profile of overweight (weight: 68.5±6.4kg; BMI: 26.8±1.6kg/m2; WC: 78.9±5.2cm; HC: 105.5±3.8cm; WHR: 0.7±0.0) (Table 1). None of the participants was underpharmacologictreatmentduringthewholestudy.
Table 1 shows the modifications of cardiovascular and metabolicparameters duringmaximal CPExT. HRand sys-tolic(SBP) anddiastolic(DBP) bloodpressurewere within normallimitsinrestingconditionsatbaselineandnormally increased during exercise [25]. At the end of the CPExT effort,maximalHRwas183.3±10.6bpm,withSBPandDBP valuesbeing147.5±2.6mmHgand78±6.9mmHg, respec-tively.
The enrolled subjects showed a low aerobic capacity (VO2max:15.4±2.6ml/kg/min)butexecutedan appropri-ateworkrate(104±21.1watt)[25].
PriortothestartoftheMREsession,HRvaluesandblood pressurelevelsatrestwerere-measuredandnosignificant differencebetweenthetworegistrationswasfound(P=n. s). Then, all women completed the MRE session without reportinganyclinicalproblem(Table1).

Indeed,accordingtotheguidelinesforexercisetesting
and prescription of the ACSM, individuals should perform
exercisebetween64—94%ofHRmaxorat40—85%of VO2
maxtoimprovecardiovascularfitness[20,21].Accordingly,
overweightwomenenrolledinthisstudyachievedanenergy
costthat,in line withtheaboveguidelines,appears
ade-quatetoincreasetheaerobiccapacityandinducetraining
effects.Ontheotherhand,inagreementwithprevious
stud-iesinvestigatingitsbeneficialeffectsonbalanceabilityand
movementcoordination[13—15],theMREislikelytoprove
asanexcellentworkoutactivityforthoseoverweight peo-ple,who, morethan others, areat high risk of joint and muscleinjuriesduringphysicalactivities[34—36].
Ourdataconfirmandextendthosefrompreviousstudies that evaluated the exercise intensity of MRE [4]. Tomas-sonietal.showedan ExIbetween75—80%of theHRmax in10young women(18—28years)[6];likewise,Gerberich etal.foundthata12-weekMREprogramin10adultwomen (18—40 years) resulted in an ExI between 70—85% of the HRmax[8].Inaddition,ourstudyintegratesthese evalua-tionswiththeuseofaRPEscale,resultinginaself-reported 13.2±1.3score,whichisconsideredan appropriatevalue foraworkoutactivity[33].
Tothebestofourknowledgeandtodate,nostudywas aimedsofaratmeasuringEEduringaMREsession.The rea-sonforthislackofinformationmayberelatedtothefact thatpreviousresearchesontheMREwereconductedwhen portableandappropriatedevicesfortheassessmentofthe EEduringphysicalactivitieswerenotavailableyet.
BytheuseoftheSWA,apractical,comfortableand easy-to-wear device, we were able toassess and measure the adequatelevelofEEguaranteedbyMREactivities(5.2±1.1 MET/minwithatotalof317.3±45.7kcal)[20,21].
Duringthe MREsession,participants werecontinuously monitoredinHRandEE.Thehighvariabilityoftherecorded
valuessuggests thatexercising at mini-trampoline canbe consideredasaphysicalactivityinvolvingbothaerobicand anaerobicmetabolismoftheenrolledwomen.This finding is also confirmed by the low level of VO2 max measured duringtheCPExT,ifcomparedtoVO2maxvaluespredicted bytheWasserman’sformula[25].Indeed,subjectsshoweda lowleveloffitness,probablyduetotheirsedentarylifestyle andoverweight.
In thelight of these findings, while in healthy popula-tionsand/or insubjectswithlowcardiovascularrisk(asin ourstudy) this typeof exercise is appropriate and easily prescribable,inmiddle-agedpatients withhigh cardiovas-cularrisk,theMREshouldbeadministeredwithcautionand acardiovascularcheck-upisdefinitelyrecommendedbefore startingaprogram.
Finally, the results of our study show that the degree ofengagementachievedduringMREis consistentwiththe guidelines provided by the ACSM which recommend that individualsconsumeatleast300kcal/workoutandatarget volumeof500—1000 METs/min/week,inordertopromote weightlossormaintainahealthybodyweight[21].
