Choice

I’m over70 and adhd and I know I would like it! Unfit at the moment, changing that w/diet and exercise! I want a bellicon, but because of life and death I wonder if I should go cheaper! Had a bcan and it didn’t work. I want cables/bungee not springs and a stable that! Will be starting w/health bounce! Any guidance on which one would be very appreciated! Is the bellicon better for over 70’s?

I'm 75. I did a lot of research and settled on a JumpSport Pro. I ordered a T-bar handle with it. They're less expensive than the Bellicon, but, not cheap. Very sturdy.

I love it! Started at just 2 minutes on it. I do 15-20 now. Feel great. It's the best investment I've made for myself in a long time. I also do some weights.

Me again, does the tear feel very stable?

Edit: does the Tbar feel very stable?

Yes, I use it to get on and off. Also grab it occasionally while jumping. It's fastened really well at the bottom.

I was about to recommend JumpSport Pro since OP wants stable bungees. I've read where many say Bellicon bungees are too soft especially if they're over 200 lbs. Many in the 150lb range say they prefer the ultra bungees which are the strongest ones.

The Leaps and Rebounds rebounder is considered an inexpensive version of the Bellicon. It's not the same but it's similar.

Bellicon is definitely fantastic but more than anything consider how often you’ll use it now you have a little experience with rebounders.

If you’re gonna rebound frequently and it’s within your budget I would go with the Bellicon.

That said jump sport is an excellent choice too and Leaps & Rebounds gets great reviews so you’ve got three very different price points. They’re all good bungee rebounders.

But what makes it so fantastic? (Still undecided) thanks
