Build Upper-Body Strength on a Trampoline

Video Transcript

"Now this next move I'm going to show you is not necessarily a trampoline move. But it's really good for building upper body strength, and upper body strength is always a good thing, because you never know when you're going to need it. It's called the knee drop handstand. And if you go knee drop handstand, back to your knees, you can repeat it over and over. In fact, in break dancing, there's a similar move and in gymnastics it's called the mule kick. So, knee drop, handstand, knee drop, handstand. Now, when you feel very comfortable with the knee drop handstand, try and do a handstand bounce. Again, this is strictly not a trampoline move. It's more of a gymnastics move, but it's a good move to understand because there might be a time where you're coming down head first, and you need to protect yourself. And you could slow yourself down by using your hands. So, knee drop handstand. Stay in the handstand. Stay in the handstand. Stay in the handstand. Quite clearly, do a few of those, and your upper body will feel it, but it'll be great conditioning. Give it a try."
