If you had been to a Trampoline Park, you would know how fun it is to defy gravity. At Katapult Trampoline Park, the boys had a go at slam dunk, dodgeball, wall running and free-fall into airbag. Jumping for 10 minutes can easily burn 100 calories. Jumping for an hour will guarantee you losing weight fast, especially if you are doing it on a weekly basis.
Having fun while losing weight sounds perfect to me!
