Urban Rebounding Boot Camp Metabolic Intervals - Review

Boot Camp Metabolic Intervals is an rebounder workout from the Urban Rebounding System. This workout is part of the Urban Rebounding Extreme Metabolic Training and stars Amy Bento as the lead.

The workout is just over 50 minutes in length. The use of a rebounder indicates that the workout is suppose to be low impact and joint friendly. However there is so much jumping off of the rebounder onto the floor that you are not really getting the low impact benefit.

The workout is interval based. It is divided into cycles. Within each cycle, you are doing 4 exercises. You are doing each exercises for two minutes or if warranted one minute per side. Amy gives you about 30 seconds of recovery in between the exercises. There seems to be more exercises done from the floor than from the rebounder. In a few exercises the rebounder is used as a prop (similar to using a step).

The workout does contain a warm up, ab section (functional abs), and cool down.

There is a lot of yelling and some cursing by Amy Bento. She does a lot of walking around, often stopping in the middle of the exercise to talk to (yell) at the other four cast members. This workout does not have a modifier.

The music was okay. The set is busy and a bit on the industrial side. You can see the camera man, at least one of them. He is in several of the segments holding his camera and filming the ladies. I guess he is used for close up shots.

Along with a rebounder, sand weights are used as well.

2 & 3/4 stars
