Is the ground a sort of trampoline?

If I wanna jump in the air, I exert a force on the ground with my legs. Do I then go in the air because I pressed the ground 'further into the ground' like I would push a trampoline downward? To which the ground then reacts by restoring itself to its original form, which launches me in the air?
