I don't know!!! I had my pedometer on when I was jogging on the rebounder because I thought it would measure the movement - I certainly felt like I had burned 200 cals! I can't see why it shouldn't work for jogging on the rebounder as jogging on the ground, the body movement is pretty much the same, there is just a lot less pain.
Janet - everyone burns calories slightly differently depending on what you weigh - for me to burn 200 cals (according to my pedometer) I have to walk for about 20 mins, but I clocked up 200 jogging on the rebounder in less than 10 mins. I don't usually do much jogging on the ground because it sort of jars the lower bone in my legs too much. I haven't done much experimenting yet but I will this week and I will let you know a bit more.
I have abandoned my pedometer it was when I wanted to wear it to the doctors I though it was getting out of hand!
There was a brill article in the guardian yesterday about Shelley Bovey the "fat is not a sin" writer who lost 7 st (btw she looks great now at 13 st) there was a bit about a woman who knew her diet obsession was OTT when she wondered how many cals in a paracetemol!
My Cardio Bounce video has arrived - ordered it from choices direct and it took 10 days to arrive, after hearing some of the stories on here i thought i would be waiting ages!! It only cost £2.54 with free p&p as well!!
Well done, Tracy - let me know if you think it is any good and I will try and track it down! I think I might have to wait another month or two though - today I 'won' a callenetics video........
I won a callanetics on Friday for £1.70, did you win your Pilates vid. Got to stay out of Ebay for a few weeks, have recently got my Geri vid (should be here today), A thighs, tums and bums & now the callanetics.
need some variation in my exercise plan and that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

I think i might have a look and see if i can 'win' a couple of exercise videos so that i have some variation in my exercise. I also bought an exercise wheel (which is **** on the stomach muscles!!) thing and a fitness ball both in Asda for £4.99 each.
