My 11 yr olk kid is on his tramp every night now that the snow is melted. He is getting braver and braver, he leaves for COC in a month and I told him if he gets a hurt on it before camp, it will be nothing like he is going to get, while I am taking him to the dr. Anyway so the litle grom, gets a dose of reality, do me a favor and list the injuries you have gotten from getting too oversealous on your tramp. Thanks.

My friend broke his ankle not even falling, just landing wrong on it. He has also broken a wrist falling off his trampoline, but I have been jumping on trampolines all my life and never been hurt. Skiing is way more dangerous then tramping, so if you're letting him ski let the little man jump.

I don't know. I think trampoleans really help develop your air sense and control. I use to go out on the trampolean all the time for some 12 years or so. Out of all the stupid things I've done on it, I don't think I've ever really been hurt. Fallen off a number of times and have taken some hard falls, but never had more than bruises, scrapes, or some minor strains.

^^ ah yep his snowboarding buddy just broke his ankle - (with a training coach) they both were going to COC together. Backflips seem to be themajor culprits of injuries.

Aren't there tethers available for the general public? Sorta like training wheels for flips.... I have seen them at amusement parks - usually 2 poles on each side with a counterweighted ropes that goes to a belt around your waist. I am striking out with googling.

I just remembered a story. About a year ago a friend of my family, who is an older guy, went to jump off the deck onto my trampolean on his back. The trampolean has beat beat to death and is pretty worn.

The trampolean didn't bounce him, and his back landed on the ground below.. breaking it.

dude, he is 12. working out at 12 stunts your development. he should just be running around doing kid stuff.

As for tramp injuries, I have never been hurt on a tramp but the tramp in my neighbours yard, in the 4 years that its been there, has claimed 3 broken arms and a broken ankel. Most of those were because kids got overzealous when there were 5 or 6 of them on at a time.

I don't know what you consider a myth, but I think scientific evidence proven over numerous trials is more than enough to validate this claim. Lifting causes soft bone damage which leads to stunted growth during development.

you forgot "and I base this on... absolutly nothing."

Im basing this on my coaching certification and my exercise science class. Children should not be on a work out routine at the age of twelve. it is unhealthy.

I fucked my ankle.It hurts if I put too much pressure on it.

Neck, ACLs and falling off the tramp is really common. Be careful.

.. Just curious and not trying to start an argument, but does that mean that children shouldn't be allowed to lift anything or do any fitness activity that affects the bones? I'm sure with moderation that training for children isn't bad or else we shouldn't allow them to jump on tramps, run, have back-packs, carry wood for fires, etc.. I mean, obviously having a child go to the gym and lifting relatively really heavy weights/worrying about gains like an adult is probably not good on many levels, but wouldn't basic exercise/training (ie: calestetics) beneficial??

what signifies a "work out" rutine? cuz im sure when they go out and play rinning around, thats a WORK OUT

open your mind once in awhile and you will see i am almost always correct in the way i word things. i said work out, not weight lifting

there is absolutly nothing wrong with a kid being active and doing many of the things you listed there. But when a kid is lifting weights regularly or running long distences for the sake of exercising. I personaly dont think that loading a 12year olds backpack with their weight in books is healthy. When i was that age there was alot of concern about permanate back problems from bookbags too heavy and i believe in some places they actually made laws that a childs school bag cant weigh more than so many pounds. But it has to be done to get their books to school and back. That is the diffrence between excercise and necessity or having fun. Kids are naturally alot more active than we are. Its build into their daily routines. They get enought excersise just being kids.

D-loc, When they go out and play, that is exercise. Exercise is the goal of working out. Kids should be getting their exercise from playing with their friends and having fun, not from lifting weights and running. That is not the way for a 12 yearold to stay in shape. Yes, a kid jumping on a tramp will be a work out in the sence of the term which is synomous with exercise, BUT the kid is not "working out" in a repetitave and routined way, which is the meaning you placed on the term in your sentence. You need to open your mind just as much as i do and sometimes more. I admit when i make a mistake.

Routine - 1. A prescribed, detailed course of action to be followed regularly; a standard procedure.

This isn't running around and playing, that’s fine for a child. We're talking about lifting weights here, this obviously what you meant in your original post. Don't try to change your position with your flawed sense of semantics.

The thing is, you rarely have any idea what you're talking about. I've called you out on this numerous times. There's nothing wrong with expressing a few falsities. Do not kid yourself in thinking that you are rarely wrong and appear to be well versed in every subject. Your "articulate mastery" of the English language does nothing but augment the point I'm making.

working out is not the same thing as exercise. Either you used the wrong term, or you meant that he should be following a routine to excercise, which is entirly wrong for the developmentaly state of a 12 year old boy. If you had read the rest of my last post that would have become clear to you as i am fairly certian i made that clear.

Take your own advice and open your mind to the possibility that you, maybe, might have, on the offchance, made a mistake.

You look like a fucking little skinny bitch, who comes online to pick fights with kids. Buddy i would fucking toss you around like its no ones business, and I can speak for everyone when i say just please shut the fuck up and stop acting like such a fucking meathead. You aren't any stronger than the rest of us.

BTW how old are you? You already have a receeding hairline? That sucks

come on bud.....muscular? don't push it with that one, you aren't fooling anyone. I'd say you weigh a buck thirty. Physically fit is a bit different than muscular. Just because you are so skinny you can see every fucking vain and muscle in your body doesn't make you any more muscular than the rest of us

when I was younger I got my balance thrown way off, jumped right off the tramp and landed flat on my back. Fortunately I only got the wind knocked out of me... but I was by myself so if I had had anything worse (ie: broken back) I would have been fucked.

If possible, try to make sure someone else is out there with him or at least at home while he's using the trampoline... I'd hate for you to come home and find your son lying on the ground unconscious or something.

Perfect! Thankyou for the replies - I think this string will help him to be sensible while he is "working out" bouncing around. Injuries are inevitable - I just would hate to see him not be able to go to camp, he is so pumped up about going that i think he is pushing himself a little too close to the edge.

Nets are a great idea.. does anyone jump in thier ski boots? It would seem that might help keep the ankle stiffened and help to isolate the legs and torso, better dupliating what actually happens when you ski and jump, flip or twist. I would imagine that would just increase the likelihood of torquing the knee........

Thanks again.

i broke my tramp, probably led to loss of air sense which caused me to come up short on a misty 5 and dislocate my shoulder. let the boy jump!!!

just think of it this way, off a tramp you fall 10ft max, off a 50ft table your going to fall like 25ft. and you do not have skis to impale yourself with either

i did a front flip and didnt lock my knees on landing, crunched up and hit my lip. i just felt my mouth fill up with blood so i ran inside and looked in the mirror. about a half inch of my top lip was hanging unattached . took 8 stitches on the outside and a lot more internal ones.
