Get help with toning your tummy and eliminating stubborn belly fat with these smart devices from Aibi.

Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and you want to shape up for the festivities – lest gossiping family members and relatives say that you’ve put on weight. Healthy dieting and working out before your family reunions are great ways to get in shape, but if you’re looking for an extra boost to achieve your body goals amid a busy schedule, Aibi’s innovative wearable devices – such as the new Lumidiet and the popular Slendertone Abs7 Unisex – can help. Here’s why they may work for you.

Both can help you shape up

Lumidiet, which is made in Korea, is a designer belt-like device that fits comfortably around your belly. It targets fat cells using LFRT (LED Fat Reduction Technology). The light pads on the device emit heat and light energy, which penetrate into skin, attacking fat cells in the layer of skin where fatty tissue is stored. The device also vibrates – this is said to accelerate the fat-burning process. How it supposedly works: Once the fat cells have absorbed enough of this combined energy, they release water, glycerol and free fatty acids into the bloodstream, before shrinking in size. The fatty substances are then processed and eliminated naturally by the body. This use of light, in combination with heat and vibration help accelerate the fat-burning process.

For best results, Aibi recommends wearing the device once or twice a day, for just 30 minutes per session. Simply wear the Lumidiet while lounging around, or maximise the fat-reduction result with some workouts. You can also access your fat reduction data, as well as track your physical activity and get tips on how to burn fat, by connecting the device to your smartphone via the IoT app. Choose from two colours and sizes.

Slendertone Abs7 Unisex is an abdominal toning belt that helps strengthen, sculpt and tone your abs. The secret is EMS technology, which sends out signals from the belt’s gel pads to the abdominal muscles, causing the muscles to contract strongly and deeply. It feels as if you’re doing those ab crunches, as you can feel your muscles contract and expand in the process. According to the brand, using the device for 20 minutes is equivalent to doing 1,200 sit-ups! The promised results: Use the belt five times a week for a firmer, flatter stomach after just four weeks. It comes with a handheld controller that offers 10 different programmes for various toning needs, with intensity levels of up to 150.

They are easy to use

Both Lumidiet and Slendertone Abs7 Unisex have user-friendly interfaces and sophisticated designs that promise to make fat reduction safe, comfortable and convenient. Both devices are designed to be portable and rechargeable like smartphones, so you can wear them any time and anywhere, at your convenience. Since you can use them at home while watching TV or even at work, it helps you save time and money. 

Both are clinically tested

According to Aibi’s clinical tests: Lumidiet is able to help burn up to 500 calories and 52g of fat in 30 minutes, while users of the Slendertone saw results in four weeks, with 100 percent of them seeing abs that looked more toned and firm.

Both are smart and sleek body-shaping devices

Lumidiet and Slendertone Abs7 Unisex are an easy and convenient way to shape and tone abs – use them as part of your private slimming and toning regime at home. Plus, you can share the devices with others so it’s more cost-effective. 

They promise to be safe and effective

The LFRT in Lumidiet uses only light, and is similar to the LED lights used in homes. Users report a comfortable and warm sensation, and improved circulation around the belly. The Slendertone’s EMS technology has been used for over 40 years in hospitals, clinics and physiotherapy practices around the world to strengthen and rehabilitate muscles.
