“I love my CAROL Bike!”

Hear from Dr. Michael Gervais, a performance psychologist who’s helped world-class athletes and organizations raise their game for over 2 decades.
Last update: 3 October 2024

Dr. Gervais has a PhD in psychology, specializing in sport performance, and a master’s degree in kinesiology. After testing CAROL Bike for 2 months, he’s convinced: it’s the most effective way to build a fitness habit—and help more people lead healthier lives.


The science behind CAROL Bike’s Reduced Exertion HIIT workout works like this: During 2x 20-second sprints, you trigger a fight-or-flight mechanism that uses the stress created to build both physiological and stress capacity. And that’s really important, because from a psychological perspective: if somebody’s feeling stressed in life, under pressure, anxious—or even depressed—doing this type of work builds capacity to handle more of those external demands.

“I love my CAROL Bike. I use it two ways – after I do my strength training and when I’ve been on the go, my schedule gets jammed up – there’s literally no reason I can’t find 5 minutes to work out.”
