Top questions and answers on Losing Weight & Building Muscle
Is it possible to lose weight and build muscle mass at the same time?
Yes, it is possible to lose weight and build muscle mass at the same time. In fact, this is the most effective way to transform your body and achieve long-term health and fitness goals. The key is to create a calorie deficit through diet and exercise, while also providing your body with the nutrients and energy it needs to build muscle.
- Cardiovascular exercise can help you burn calories and lose weight, while also improving your heart health and endurance.
- Strength training, using equipment like the aeroSling pulley sling trainer, can help you build muscle mass and increase your metabolism, which means your body will continue to burn calories even when you’re not exercising.
Should you lose weight first and then build muscle?
It is a common belief that you should lose weight first and then focus on building muscle, but this is not necessarily the best approach. When you lose weight, you not only lose fat, but you also lose muscle mass. This can make it more difficult to build muscle later on, and can also slow down your metabolism.
Instead, it is better to focus on losing fat and building muscle at the same time. This can help you achieve your desired body composition more quickly, and can also help you maintain your weight loss in the long term.
How to lose fat and build muscle?
The best way to lose fat and build muscle is to create a calorie deficit while also providing your body with the nutrients it needs to build muscle. Here are some tips:
- Eat a diet that is rich in protein and nutrient-dense foods
- Consume lean protein sources, such as chicken breast, fish, beans, and tofu.
- Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables for fiber and other essential nutrients.
- Choose complex carbohydrates, such as whole grains, instead of processed or refined carbohydrates.
- Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
- Engage in regular strength training to build muscle and increase your metabolism. Consider using equipment like the revvll rope trainer and the aerobis Kinetic Trainer.
- Incorporate cardiovascular exercise into your routine, such as running, cycling, or using a rowing machine, to burn calories and lose fat.
- Get enough rest and recovery time, as this is essential for muscle growth and repair.
- Monitor your progress by tracking your body measurements, strength gains, and overall energy levels.
Is it hard to lose 10 kilos?
Losing 10 kilos can be challenging, but it is possible with the right approach. To lose 10 kilos, you will need to create a calorie deficit of around 7,000 to 10,500 calories per week. This can be achieved through a combination of diet and exercise, as outlined above. However, it is important to set realistic goals and expectations, and to focus on making sustainable lifestyle changes rather than trying to achieve quick results.
How can I lose fat on the abdomen?
Targeted fat loss, also known as spot reduction, is not possible through exercise alone. To lose fat on the abdomen, you will need to create a calorie deficit through diet and exercise. However, engaging in regular strength training, such as using the flexible fitness bands, can help you build muscle in the abdominal area and improve your overall body composition.
Where is the first place to lose fat?
The first place to lose fat varies from person to person, as it is largely determined by genetics and individual body composition. However, it is common for people to lose fat in the face, arms, and upper body before losing fat in the lower body, including the hips and thighs.
Does the belly get fatter when you build muscles?
No, the belly does not get fatter when you build muscle. In fact, building muscle can help you achieve a more toned and defined abdominal area. However, if you are consuming more calories than your body needs, you may gain fat in the abdominal area even if you are building muscle elsewhere.
Can you convert belly fat into muscle?
No, it is not possible
to convert belly fat into muscle. Fat and muscle are two different types of tissue, and one cannot be transformed into the other. However, by engaging in regular strength training and cardiovascular exercise, you can lose fat and build muscle at the same time, which can improve your overall body composition and help you achieve your health and fitness goals.
What is the best fat killer?
There is no single “best” fat killer, as weight loss and fat loss are highly individual and dependent on a variety of factors, such as genetics, lifestyle, and overall health. However, the most effective way to lose fat is to create a calorie deficit through diet and exercise, as outlined above. Additionally, incorporating strength training and cardiovascular exercise into your routine can help you burn fat and build muscle, which can improve your overall body composition and help you achieve your health and fitness goals.
Outdoor fitness training

Fitness royalty: squats
Squats – the synergistic exercise supreme
Customer rating: an absolute recommendation
Today we want to let our customers have their say. After all, it is our customers for whom we work every day in order to offer them what we believe to be the best training equipment. All the better when our customers see it the same way and are as enthusiastic about one of our products as Holger is. And now the unadulterated opinion of our customer Holger, who reports on his experiences with our aeroSling ELITE Plus.
Summary
The aeroSling ELITE Plus receives an absolute purchase recommendation from me. This recommendation is without restrictions. The recommendation also applies explicitly to all age and weight groups!
Notes:
You have to train with it regularly to have an effect. By the way, this applies to every training device in the world.
The Sling Trainer is a professional device that may need some practice!
There is a weight approval of the manufacturer. If the own body weight should be above that, the Sling Trainer is in my opinion still a buy recommendation, however under the restriction that the effective load does not exceed this limit (this is however quite simply possible by an appropriate exercise execution).
Product (Quality, Functionality, etc.)
I’ll be brief here. I have been training with the aeroSling ELITE Plus for 2 months. Conclusion: The product is beyond all doubt in terms of quality and functionality! Somebody put serious thoughts in its design and didn’t save any money anywhere. A companion for life.
Why do I like the Sling Trainer so much (motivation, effect, etc.)?
First of all some information about myself: I am now over 50 years old. Sport was my constant companion. With 5 years I started with swimming training (not so great). From 8 to 18 years I was an (artistic) gymnast. After that I always did something regularly until now. At the moment I’m pretty fit (it’s amazing what you can achieve if you stick to it). But I’m certainly not a “sports junkie”. I don’t do a marathon, a triathlon or 4,000 km on my bike. So I am “normal”. But: I can (still) do 20 decent push-ups.
Why Strength Training?
Strength training is not my hobby. But I have found that strength training is good in every way (no pain, good body feeling, etc.). Strength training is therefore necessary and good! (There is also a lot of information on the net. [or in the aerobis Blog; the Editor ;) ] ) The problem is: You have to do it. And: As a rule, you don’t have unlimited time to do it.
My “Strength Training Career”
Up to the age of 18 I did not do any (explicit) strength training at all. After that I thought that hitting the gym twice a week was the right thing to do. 5 years ago I gave up the gym and trained only with my own body weight. Since then I only do strength training “with myself” (by the way, without any appreciable losses, but rather the opposite).
My Sling Trainer Career
2 years ago I bought a Sling Trainer of a well-known German supermarket company for really very little money. Up to now my training with my own body weight was not bad. But with a sling trainer I got a lot more out of it.
Now for the aeroSling ELITE Plus
As already said: I consider strength training to be a) meaningful and b) necessary in every respect. But I have (relatively) little time for it and don’t want to invest much time either.
I train in about 4 x 30 minutes. There’s nothing more I can do regularly. In my experience this is also the measure of what you can keep up.
What do I do with this limited time (we are all working and have other hobbies)? The following order applies to me:
- Gym (not bad at all)
- Training with own body weight (definitely better!)
- Training with own body weight and one (any) sling trainer (even better)
- Training with own body weight and the aerobis aeroSling ELITE Plus – the BOMB!
Why the BOMB? What can the aerobis Sling Trainer do that others can’t? What is so special about it?
I get the most out of the time I spend on strength training. It couldn’t be more efficient! So we get a lot for the money here.
The unique effect of the aerobis Sling Trainer here is the flexible suspension, i.e. the pulley. This makes it impossible to train “one-sided”. Each of us has a stronger and a weaker leg, arm, etc. For the normal mortal it is usually difficult to train both – the strong and the weak side – equally. Unfortunately, it is the weak sides that cause the problems. The aerobis Sling Trainer forces you to always train the same side equally.
The sling trainer automatically trains the so-called deeper muscles. Many people know the big muscles. But for the (especially painless) functioning of our body there are many other smaller (but not unimportant) muscles. And these are usually difficult to train in the gym.
In a nutshell: If you fall in winter, big muscles are of no use if you cannot coordinate them. But the sling trainer will inevitably ensure that you can coordinate and use your muscles, however small or large they may be.
Price
Many may think that the price is “worth reconsidering”. Here are some considerations:
- The product is worth its money in every respect! (lifetime, function, etc.)
- It becomes a faithful companion for years because of these qualities (I always have my sling trainer with me and feel good with it).
- The (supposed) market leader is not cheaper either.
- A monthly fee at the gym is at least 10-30 âŹ!
- If you train with this great equipment, you will never again need a gym as an “average Joe”. So you’ll have your output back in no time at all.
Result:
For me, the aerobis aeroSling ELITE Plus is the BEST. It is a super training tool! Not less, but not more! If you don’t use it regularly, it only makes as much sense as a drill in the basement. But if you use it correctly, you get the best you can get out of strength training.
To whom is still not sure:
- strength training is important (to a moderate/sensible extent) for EVERYONE!
- Forget the gym!
- Train with your own body weight! Get expert advice!
- Keep going! An effect only occurs after a certain time (which may be a long time for you). But it is worth it!
- Purchase a Sling Trainer. Even a cheap one at first. Practice with it, gain experience.
- If you have managed all this – purchase an aerobis Sling Trainer. You will experience a miracle!
Top 10 aeroSling advanced exercises
Pedro is an aerobis Hardcore-Fan from Brasil. He even visited us here in Cologne. In his home, Rio de Janeiro, he is a well known Personal Trainer and also runs MotirĂľ Crossfit, a very cool CrossFit gym. Pedro is extremely creative with his exercises and regularly surprises even Elmar (the guy that builds all aerobis equipment) with new variations. Take it away, Pedro:
When we consider every functional training methodology aimed at strength workouts (excluding a specific rehabilitation), there isnât a more accessible, versatile and mobile tool in existence than suspension systems. Through all these years, we can see the evolution of these systems firstly with ropes, rings, static suspension devices and nowadays their evolution with pulleys, carabiners and accessories that provide us with a major challenge in patterns of movement that are different to simple rows, push ups or plank positions.
The aeroSling Dynamic Suspension Trainer and its accessories, developed by aerobis, are the best solutions in this segment. For those who are using the aeroSling Dynamic Suspension Trainer and have tried the possible exercises of this tool or wish to challenge their athletes and clients with advanced exercises: here are my TOP 10 advanced exercises with the aeroSling.
10) PowerPress – Hold the handles with arms extended in front of your shoulders. Bend one arm and bring the elbow back close along side your body. Follow the hand back with your eyes. You can use the aeroSling PowerSpring or Vest to increase the difficulty.
9) Swimmer – When your PowerPress is consistent, you can start trying these movements. Itâs necessary to maintain the body in a straight line for a good position during the arm circles With elbows semi-flexed during the high level and completely extended at a lower level, you must use a range of slowly executed motions of the arms. To increase the intensity of the exercise, try leaning your body a little more.
8) Partner Sling Chop – Diagonal patterns of movement are essential to maintain the health of our core which is mostly composed of anatomically transverse muscles. This exercise requires movement concentrically in the descending phase and movement eccentrically in the ascending phase. Keep your knees semi-flexed and spine neutral by trying to keep your elbows well extended from beginning to end near the distal knee. Fight the descent of the movement and resist on the rise.
7) Canoe Paddle Rowstick (Single Connect) – This exercise is a huge challenge when itâs done with heavy counter-weights and the use of a kettlebell is advised. Men must use 20-24kg and women 12-16kg. Try to do this exercise with as large a range of motions as possible and very slowly for the kettlebell not to swing. Let it burn!
6) HandStand Pushup with Flex Handle XL- This movement involves strength and stability of shoulders and core to maintain the mid-line of the body in a straight position during the exercise. Anyone can do it, therefore beginners must use the Flex Handle XL at hip level until properly adapted to reverse position. By the way, advanced slingers can use the Flex Handle XL on both feet or a single foot.
5) Push up Rowstick Single Connect -This exercise is very difficult because your body is supported in just one point. Start in a standing position with the base of your feet wide open. The trunk anti-rotator muscles are called on in this independent unilateral push-up movement. As time passes, increase the inclination of the body a little more.
4) Sling Jump and Single Leg Variation with Flex Handle XL : With the Flex Handle XL at hip level, find the required height of the aeroSling Dynamic Suspension Trainer so that its initial position is both hands and feet firmly planted on the floor (for support). You should jump diagonally and not upwards. After a few tries you’ll be flying just like Superman. It’s a very intense workout because the angle is different to a vertical jump. Your back will burn trying to keep the neutral position as will your legs trying to maintain jump height.
3) Squat Core Rotation Rowstick Single Connect– They are two conjugated exercises. In this movement you must squat with the arms extended and at the moment of the ascent in the full extension of the knees and hip, you must execute the rotation of the body using the Rowstick above the head.
2) Negative Sit up with Flex Handle XL- Here we have the evolution of the GHD-Sit-up. Firstly, we donât need a GHD. Secondly, you can do it with a foot on a tree or wall. Thirdly, you donât feel like your body is trapped or divided in two parts much. Start the movement with little degrees until you feel confortable to let the body fall completely.
1) Vertical Row – The aeroSling Dynamic Suspension Trainer must be high anchored in this movement. You should start in the sitting position on the floor with your elbows extended. Row in a vertical line letting your elbows align with the trunk until your body is fully suspended. Was it easy? Use unilateral row to increase difficulty.
Each exercise can be more difficult depending on your level. By the way, do you know any advanced exercises with the aeroSling Dynamic Suspension Trainer? Please share them with us!
