REBOUNDER
REB03 - The Needak Rebounder
The Needak Rebounder is 40 inches in diameter and
stands 10 inches tall.
The "jump mat" (rebounding surface) is 28 1/2 inches in
diameter, providing ample room for exercising.
Rebounding is an exercise that can reduce your body fat; firms your
legs, thighs, abdomen, arms, and hips; increases your agility; improves
your sense of balance; strengthens your muscles over all; provides
an aerobic effect for your heart; rejuvenates your body when it's
tired, and generally puts you in a state of health and fitness.
You can easily perform this exercise in your living room,
your office, and your yard. The traveler may wish to carry a folding
rebounder for use in a hotel room. It's the most convenient, metabolically
effective form of exercise around.
The Needak Soft-Bounce Spring absorbs as much as 85% of
the impact of each bounce. This is due to the unique barrel shape
of the spring. The diameter of the coils increases as you move toward
the center of the spring. Note: springs will break - when you flex
metal, it will eventually break. So, if you use your Rebounder often,
eventually you will have to replace the springs:

Needak uses a mat made from Permatron material,
which has a smooth finish- It should give no stretch during the
downward landing, while at the same time providing a resilient rebound.
The Permatron is resistant to ultraviolet rays, doesn't break down
as do other fabrics, and allows no moisture absorption. The mat
is sewn together using 5760 stitches of high-grade nylon thread
with two layers of strong polypropylene webbing stitched around
the mat's edges.
Attached to the heavy-grade, all steel round frame is an oversize
spring mechanism holding four-inch-long, custom-made jumbo springs
which deliver a soft bounce. Thirty-six springs made of quality
wire will hold the mat to the frame. The springs are shielded by
a protective cover. Individual spring mounting pins prevent frame
wear. Tapered coils help to give extended wearability to such springs.
(Untapered coils allow low-quality springs to break frequently,
requiring replacement.)

A Note From Phil Wilson
Owner of Momentum98
We introduced the Rebounder
to Columbus, Ohio during the 1981 Ohio State Fair. I
believe in this product to such a great extent that
I spent the seventeen days of the Fair rebounding to
demonstrate to the crowds how easy and beneficial it
is...
A little history behind
this great product:
When the rebounders first came
out, people were discovering that they felt better when
they rebounded. Others were discovering that the lymph
system got pumped in an incredible way. People who were
ill became better, and those who weren't ill, were becoming
even healthier, glowing individuals. It may be
also because it pumps the lymphatic system, and pumping
the lymphatic system can help eliminate toxins from
the body. Those promoting rebounding
were able to make money at it, and hence they could
expend their energies educating people about rebounding.
There was great job in rebound world, and the people
were health and happy....
Unfortunately,
the rebounding industry
got too big, too fast.
The educational aspect of marketing this product did
not keep up with the technology. Rebounders were mass
produced - consequently the quality of the rebounders
suffered and the educational aspect of the product disappeared.
Rebounders are now rebounding back (pun intended). Although
many of the original companies manufacturing Rebounders
went out-of-business with the mass production of lesser
quality Rebounders in the 1980s and 1990s, we have discovered
Needak. This manufacturer produces high quality rebounders.
We don't sell 150 rebounders
every month any more like we used to in 1981 (at $169.00
apiece) - but more and more people are rekindling an interest
in the benefits of this product.So here they are, and
here is your opportunity to start exercising with them,
and benefiting your health, and your life.
The experts on
Rebounders:
Go to the Rebounder Book
& Video Page
As Dr. Samuel West has indicated many times in his many
lectures and in his book on the 7 Golden Secrets
Plus One that there is nothing that pumps the lymphatic
system like rebounding.
Al Carter in his classic book, The Miracles of Rebound
Exercise, stated many times that
Rebounding is the most efficient exercise ever
designed by man.
Harry (PhD in Fitness
Training) & Sarah Sneider did a lot of research,
worked with many athletes of all kinds, and even wrote
a book, The Olympic Trainer, on their results
in increasing the effectiveness of their fitness training
system.
