The Studio Guide to Starting Bungee Fitness

Bungee Fitness is great for HIIT

training, low impact cardio, dance, and plyometric exercises. Improve your agility, strengthen your balance, and have a blast while performing tricks that

defy gravity!

Bungee fitness is a fun activity for all

ages, but recommended for students age 12+.

Exercise doesn’t have to be boring!

Bungee fitness is unique because

it combines resistance training

with a cardiovascular workout. It

is low-impact and loads of fun!

Bungee Fitness can be a great way

to offer fun and exciting fitness

alternatives and a good revenue

source for gyms, because the

average class price is higher than

many other offerings.

Bungee Fitness Set:

The minimum ceiling height recommended for bungee fitness is 8-feet. The sets are intended for rigging points 9-12 feet tall. If you have higher ceilings, you can still use these, but will need to purchase additional rigging equipment to make up for extra height.

Each set will need a minimum of an 8-foot radius to avoid collisions and we recommend staggering where possible.

Consider putting a sticker or marking 

on the floor to help each student 

center themselves when using the bungee. 

Bungee Sets must be installed by a professional rigger for student safety. We recommend a regular safety inspection and safety plan, including visual and tactile inspection, to identify any damage and prevent issues. 

The gold standard is to find someone experienced in aerial rigging, such as a professional rigger or structural engineer to help with the installation.

These sets are intended for ground based bungee fitness classes, and this product is not suitable for bungee jumping, full suspension, or for use as a swing.

Bungees must be used at the recommended weight limits. The size refers to how much elastic is in the bungee cord itself, which provides more or less resistance depending on size. 

The Small and Medium Bungee Sets come with the same size S/M harnesses. All harnesses are rated to hold users up to 300lbs. The Large bungee comes with the Large Harnesses which can fit larger students.

We can substitute harness sizes upon request.

Consider getting a few Extra Bungee Cords for additional bounce and resistance with the smaller sizes, as well as options to have on hand for different student demographics. We also sell Harnesses separately if needed. 

All hardware should be inspected before each use. Ensure carabiners are locked, harnesses are tight, and perform a tactile inspection on the bungee cords. The bungee is made up of several elastic cords; if one is broken inside, that bungee should not be used. In a studio or gym setting, we suggest replacing the bungees every 2 years, around 40,000 jumps, or when first signs of damage is noted. Harnesses can be hand washed with warm water and mild soap with a sponge. Do not soak the harness, air dry only. Other equipment may be wiped clean.

For bungee longevity and user safety, we recommend avoiding slippery nylon or synthetic clothes when possible to further reduce friction (cotton sweatpants or other non slippery fibers are best). Ensure that the bungee hangs at belly-button height for adequate resistance. The user should be able to stand flat-footed when hooked into the bungee, but still feel tension in the cord. 

Our Bungee Fitness Sets are very competitively priced - they are high quality, thick and durable bungees. Each set comes with your selected size bungee cord, with two quicklinks pre-installed. It also includes a Swivel so that you can hop and spin. Extension Straps (daisy chains and slings) can be used to mount at varying heights. The set comes with everything you need to get started, just note that overhead mounting options are sold separately as needs may vary.

The Ceiling Mount Hook can be used for ceilings 12 feet and under; this equipment must be professionally installed and are intended for ground-based bungee fitness classes only; these are not suitable for aerial arts, acrobatics, or circus classes.
