  1. Last April I shattered my femur and burst fractured my L5 bouncin! Was rehabbing for 6months before jumping again. Didn't have a spinal fusion but did have a rod, three screws and a large pin in my leg to hold it together. Been jumping again for a couple months with no issues.I also work out at least 5 days a week and also do yoga 3/4 days a week. I agree with the others that have posted here about core strength and flexibility without gaining those 2 things back jumping would be extremely difficult without hurting yourself again. I would focus on getting as healthy as possible and then see what you think you're body can really handle. All that being said I have made about 100 jumps in the last 2 1/2 months with no issues. One hard opening, didn't feel good but nothing broke. Good luck!
