The rebounder that made movement feel like play again
There are days when my energy dips, when Iβve been sat at my desk too long, or when I just need five minutes to shake off the day. On those days, the thing I reach for is my bellicon.
bellicon is a German brand that makes premium mini trampolines, or rebounders, with bungee cords in place of metal springs. The result is a smoother, quieter, softer bounce that you can use right there in the living room.[1]
This is my guide to the bellicon: what makes it different, how to choose yours, and how I use it at home.

Why I trust bellicon
Most budget mini trampolines use metal springs, which can give a hard, jarring bounce. The bellicon uses bungee cords instead, which bellicon calls its Flow Motion technology, for a smoother, quieter, softer bounce.[1]
The bungees come in different strengths, so you choose them to suit your body weight and how you like to train. A softer bungee gives a deeper, gentler bounce; a firmer one gives a quicker, more athletic feel.[1]
π Bungee suspension. A smooth, quiet bounce in place of springs.[1]
π Your choice of bungee strength. Matched to your weight and training style, using belliconβs guide.[1]
π Sturdy legs. Screw-on legs on the 112 cm model, with folding legs available on other models.[1]
π Online workouts. bellicon includes free access to its bellicon+ online workouts for a period when you buy, the brand says.[1]
π Made in Germany. With a long reputation in the rebounding world.[1]
The bellicon I recommend
bellicon 112 cm: the all-rounder for home
The 112 cm is a popular all-rounder for homes: big enough for a proper workout, small enough to live in the living room. You choose your legs, bungee strength and colour when you order.
Some days I do a proper sweaty session; other days itβs a soft bounce while a podcast plays. Five or ten minutes here and there really adds up.
βI love how this rebounder transforms exercise into a fun, engaging experience, making it easy to incorporate movement into my daily life.β - Georgie x

How to choose your bellicon
π Size. The 112 cm is a popular all-rounder for homes. Bigger frames give more room for moves; smaller ones suit tighter spaces.[1]
π Legs. Screw-on legs are sturdy for a permanent spot; folding legs are handy if you want to tuck it away.[1]
π Bungee strength. Choose by body weight and training style. bellicon has a guide on its site, and Iβd always follow it.[1]
π Extras. A stability bar can be a great confidence boost if youβre new to rebounding or want extra support.
How I fit it into my day
π First thing. A couple of minutes of soft bouncing, with the window open.
π Between calls. A five-minute bounce instead of reaching for my phone.
π While dinner cooks. Ten minutes with my favourite playlist.
π Start small. Keep your feet low to the mat and let your body find its rhythm.
Who itβs brilliant for
π Busy women who want short, fun bursts of movement at home.
π Anyone who finds running hard on their joints and wants a lower-impact option.
π Desk-based workers who need a quick reset between calls.
π Families. The kids will want a go too. Check belliconβs guidance on age and weight, and always supervise little ones.
Who should check first
π Pregnancy or postpartum. Pelvic floor health matters here. Check with your GP or physio first.
π Pelvic floor concerns. Including prolapse or continence issues.
π Other conditions. Balance problems, osteoporosis, heart conditions, recent injuries or surgery, or joint conditions where bouncing causes pain.
Why I look forward to it
The NHS recommends adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate activity a week, plus strength work on two days.[2] What changed things for me was finding movement I actually look forward to.
