Inside the rider story of a strength studio owner whose CAROL results stunned his medical team.

“My doctor was blown away by the results.”

Marshall has spent years evaluating fitness tools for his strength studio, but nothing matched the measurable cardiovascular changes he saw with CAROL Bike. One ride was enough to convince him—and his recent stress test confirmed just how powerful 5-minute REHIT can be.

How it started

Marshall first heard about CAROL through a friend in the biohacking world: 

 

“I first heard about CAROL from a friend, Jim Keen, who helped launch another great state-of-the-art fitness tool, the ARX.” 

 

As the owner of a strength training studio, Marshall was looking for a high-intensity cardio machine that delivered measurable results, without burning hours each week. After listening to a podcast featuring CAROL co-founder Ulrich, he visited a local studio in Chicago and tried CAROL Bike for the first time. 

 

“After one ride, I was convinced! I loved how easy it was to learn, super efficient, safe, and quick results. The quantifiable information from each ride was inspirational. I could not wait for my next ride.” 

 

The results: “My doctor was blown away.” 

 

Marshall has been using CAROL Bike since the summer of 2020, almost 5 years and counting. 

 

What’s changed? Everything. 

 

“Amazing results! I’m 76 years old and in the best shape of my life.” 

 

The real validation came during a recent cardiac assessment: 

 

“I just did an echo stress test and the doctor and techs were blown away with my results. My heart is clean and tough!” 

 

For Marshall, CAROL Bike is both a fitness and longevity tool. A way to stay strong, resilient, and biologically young while staying “in his lane.” 

 

His go-to workout? 

“REHIT Intense.”

5 years later and still like new

CAROL Bike is engineered to last, and Marshall is living proof: 

 

“The price was VERY reasonable and quality is excellent. 5 years old now and looks brand new. I have had ZERO issues.” 

 

Setup was just as smooth: 

 

“Easy delivery. Set up and install in less than 90 minutes. I did it by myself!” 

 

And his enthusiasm hasn’t faded: 

 

“BTW… CAROL KICKED MY ASS AGAIN TODAY… and in 8 minutes 40 seconds!” 

 

His advice to new riders 

 

Marshall doesn’t hesitate: 

“DON’T THINK ABOUT IT, JUST GET IT!!! You will not be disappointed.” 

 

And for anyone who claims they don’t have time to exercise: 

 

“They are only fooling themselves! Get a CAROL Bike and stop complaining ever again. Plus, you’ll look and feel better than ever!” 

 

Bottom line?  

“I LOVE CAROL.”
