Any fitness levelScientifically proven to deliver superior health and fitness benefits in 90% less time compared to regular cardio.
−90% timeInside the ride
Developed by leading scientists, Reduced Exertion HIIT (REHIT) creates the most powerful training stimulus from the shortest possible ride. CAROL’s AI applies exactly the right resistance at exactly the right moment — here is every second of it.
Pedal slowly for up to 2 minutes.
Pedal slowly for up to 2 minutes to prep for your first sprint.
AI applies Instant Resistance. You push to your limits for 20 seconds, forcing 25-30% mobilization of muscular glycogen, releasing key signaling molecules.
Pedal slowly for 3 minutes, clearing lactate and preparing for your second sprint.
Push again to your limits for 20 seconds to activate the signaling molecules released in Sprint 1. This tells your body it must get fitter, stronger.
Light pedalling for 3 minutes, so blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing go back to normal.

Dropping 2.6% bodyfat in ~8 weeks for someone who prioritizes a healthy lifestyle is no easy feat. I’d go so far as to label it as a gamechanger.
