Rope Trainers

Our rope trainers are built to last, with durable PU ropes that adapt to age, usage, and temperature. If your rope seems twisted or deformed, don’t worry—the polymer material is designed to regain its original shape. Here’s how to get it back in top condition:

1. Check for Twisting
   If the rope is twisted rather than deformed, we’ve got you covered with a quick fix. Watch our step-by-step video to identify and untwist your rope:

2. Fixing Deformations
   For other deformations, heat can help the rope reset. On a hot day (>30°C), place the rope trainer on a clean, padded outdoor surface for 30–60 minutes. Every 10 minutes, cycle the rope about 30cm to ensure all sections are exposed. The warmth will help the polymers realign to their original shape.

The revvll and Battle Boa are innovative rope training machines, also known as Rope Trainers. They allow you to train with a continuous rope that runs through a pulley system with adjustable resistance. Users can perform pushing, pulling, and rotational movements against constant resistance, making them ideal for full-body functional workouts.

Thanks to their compact size and the included anchor sling, they can be mounted almost anywhere - indoors or outdoors - unlocking a wide variety of training options.

Yes - rope pulling is a highly effective way to build functional muscle, especially in your back, shoulders, arms, and grip. The continuous rope keeps your muscles under constant tension throughout every pull, which is a key driver of muscle growth. Because the resistance never drops between repetitions, even short sessions create a strong training stimulus.

With the adjustable resistance of the revvll and Battle Boa you decide how hard it gets: choose a high resistance for strength-focused sets or a lower resistance and longer duration for muscular endurance. Combined with pushing, pulling, and rotating movements from different angles, you can train your entire upper body - and your core has to stabilize every single repetition.

For most people, 2 to 4 rope training sessions per week are ideal. Because rope pulling is gentle on the joints and does not overload single muscle groups with heavy weights, you recover faster than from classic heavy strength training. Beginners should start with 2 sessions of 15 to 20 minutes and focus on clean, controlled pulling before increasing volume or resistance.

Rope training is also perfect for short, intense sessions: a 10-minute high-resistance workout builds strength, while longer sessions at low resistance train your endurance. Listen to your body - if your grip, forearms, or shoulders still feel heavily fatigued, give them an extra day of rest.

The revvll ONE offers the perfect introduction to continuous rope training with its easy handling, infinitely adjustable resistance and particularly robust construction. It has an even higher maximum resistance than the revvll PRO due to the direct brake.

The revvll PRO is the professional version with eddy current brake, which enables optimal training control with its 6 adjustable resistances and the blue repetition counter in the rope. The longer rope and the smooth rope transport allow a perfect flow of movements during training.

The Battle Boa allows Battle Ropes to be used as a rope. So, unlike with revvlls, different rope diameters can be used. With the Battle Boa, the rope is directly braked through friction. The rope is a wearing part wand can be replaced in seconds.

Currently, the revvll has no direct competition. It is a unique, space-saving, mobile, and versatile alternative to traditional rope climbing machines. While rope climbing machines simulate climbing a rope, they are stationary, often limited to one or two movement directions, and extremely expensive. As a result, they are typically only found in large gyms.

revvlls were designed to overcome all these limitations. With an endless, fused rope and weighing less than 6 kg (13 lb), it is easy to transport and can be mounted at different heights. Depending on the mounting height and the user’s position, it enables a wide range of exercises, including pushing, pulling, and rotating movements.

Unlike conventional rope climbing machines, our Rope Trainers are far more affordable, making them an excellent option for personal trainers and smaller gyms looking to expand their training offerings with a truly innovative piece of equipment.

The space requirement of our rope workout machines is very small. The revvll itself needs only little space, the rope and the trainee take up most of the training space. Deciding factors for the necessary training space are the mounting height of the revvll and the direction in which you want to train. The most training space is needed when the revvll is mounted a hip height and the trainee pulls the rope towards their mid region. This rope training setup would take up about 2.5 m of space. To the sides you should have 2 m overall to make every rotational exercise possible. In between these margins, all exercises can be done without any limitations. If the revvll is mounted higher or lower than hip height, or the body center of the trainee, then the necessary training space becomes even smaller.

Distance to other training equipment: please note that the revvll needs sufficient distance to other training equipment like sling trainers or powerbands. Otherwise, these could be pulled into the casing of the revvll and damage it and get damaged themselves.

All aerobis rope trainers can be suspended almost anywhere thanks to the anchor sling and the anchor carabiner. Rigs, cages or other training frames are suitable for this, as are trees or climbing rigs on playgrounds. The attachment point should withstand a tensile load of 300 kg. Make sure that the rope trainer has enough distance to the holding object to avoid accidental impacts against the housing. If the rope trainer is fixed near the ground, please make sure that it is protected from hitting the ground e.g. by a mat and that the pulling rope is fed freely and straight into the rope trainer.

The aerobis Rail + revvll Mount is an adjustable rail that attaches directly to the wall and allows quick and easy adjustment of the suspension height.

The mounting of the revvll can vary in height. Both a mounting near the ground and a mounting in head height offer many exercise variations. Different heights will make different exercises possible. Make sure, however, that the resistance wheel on top of the revvll is in reach for each of the trainees at any time so they can adjust the intensity of the training to their individual fitness levels.

Our wall rail is the optimal wall mount for the revvll. It allows for quick and easy height adjustment. The rail should be installed about 30-50 cm above the floor to enable all exercises and arrange for maximum movement radius.

The resistance of a revvll PRO is determined by two factors:

1: The setting of the resistance with the resistance wheel
2: The traction speed (in m/s, or rope cycles in Rounds per Minute, RPM. A full rope cycle equals 4 m)

The determined traction powers at 1 m/s range from 135 watt on level 1 up to 500 watt on level 6:

• Level 1: 135 watt
• Level 2: 160 watt
• Level 3: 190 watt
• Level 4: 280 watt
• Level 5: 390 watt
• Level 6: 500 watt

Please note: the given watt values are approximated values. The true traction powers can differ slightly.

The resistance of the revvll ONE can be adjusted progessively up to the point of blocking the rope entirely. Caution: this can increase wear because the rope is stressed disproportionately.

With years of experience and pioneering work in this field, we have achieved exceptional durability for the main rope. Even revvll units that have been in use for years often still have their original rope. If your revvll ever needs servicing, simply send it to us via parcel service, and we will handle the rest.

Before starting any service, we will inform you of the costs in advance so you can decide how to proceed.

We give a 24-month warranty on factory defects (EU) and recommend annual maintenance by us in case of heavy use. The service for our Rope Trainers is generally quite uncomplicated, as the devices can be sent to us through standard parcel service.

There can be several reasons for a static charge of the installation. One reason could be that friction from the carpet separates charges and the motion of the rope transports it to the revvll body. A static charge with the same potential of trainee, rope, and machine is also possible. When an uncharged person touches the rope, the charge can flow.

A possible solution: trainees should always be grounded in order to prevent static charge or conduct it directly. You can achieve this by using ESD protection mats which are widely available. These mats are placed on the ground underneath the revvll so that the trainee can stand on it during training. The mat is connected to an ground conductor via a cable.

These are general guidelines without commitment and must be verified with a specialist on site.
