CAROL
ADAPTIVE HIIT BIKE
CAROL is a revolutionary stationary bike that uses glycogen depletion to activate survival pathways, resulting in drastic changes to several health metrics. The sudden demand for energy causes your body to rapidly burn large amounts of sugar stores within 5-10 seconds, signaling surge of other molecules that improve a variety of health metrics.
Survival of the Fittest
RAPID GLYCOGEN DEPLETION ACTIVATES SURVIVAL PATHWAYS.
A sudden demand for energy causes your body to rapidly burn large amounts of muscular glycogen (sugar stores) within 5-10 seconds. This signals a threat to your survival. Huge surge of other molecules upgrade you to be fitter, leaner, healthier.
The Benefits
CAROL, 3 DAYS PER WEEK VS. 30 MINUTES OF MEDIUM INTENSITY CONTINUOUS TRAINING (MCIT) 5 DAYS PER WEEK.

Workouts
WORKOUT: Intense
TIME INVESTMENT:
8 MINUTES 40 SECONDS.
CAROL’s lead workout replicates that used by scientists. In five steps lasting less than nine minutes, CAROL instructs, automates and guides you through two 20-second max intensity sprints wrapped in gentle warm-up, recovery and cool-down periods.
The graphic shows each step of the Intense workout.
WORKOUT: Fat Burn 30
TIME INVESTMENT:
15 MINUTES.
Proven to help lose nine times more fat than regular exercise, this workout also makes the endorphins go wild. With CAROL in control, you are guided through 8-second sprints at personalised resistance, followed by 12-second rests - 30 times.
“I started using CAROL after I saw myself on television and I freaked out on how big I looked. Now I’m into episode 3 and I’ve lost 10lbs in 6 weeks with this bike. I LOOOOOOVE IT.”

A better energy boost than a chocolate bar, this workout features two 10-second sprints to get your mojo back.
workout: Fat Burn 60
TIME INVESTMENT:
25 MINUTES.
The same as Fat Burn 30 but with 60 sprints. For serious burn junkies, this CAROL bike workout for fat loss tests mental strength to its max.
Designed by scientists to guarantee results
IN JUST 8 WEEKS OF USING CAROL, THREE TIMES A WEEK, EXPECT TO DOUBLE YOUR FITNESS.
CAROL will increase, decrease or not change the resistance depending on rider performance and biometric measurements. Fine and automatic adjustments ensure that riders from 25-80 years old can exercise confidently because each session is customized to their ability.
“In order to replicate lab protocols, a bike must be controlled by a computer, and run a protocol which can instantly switch from hyperbolic to constant torque mode. Specialized software and expensive hardware are needed. CAROL has got it spot on and is the only consumer bike I know of that can do this.”
— Dr. Vollaard, Professor of Health and Exercise Science at Stirling University
Designed by engineers for greater quality
CAROL HAS 9 MORE HARDWARE COMPONENTS THAN OTHER BIKES
CAROL is a highly accurate ergometer. A powerful, laser guided motor controls the magnetic brakes that enable users to reach supramaximal power. The HR monitor outputs ECG signals while an additional monitor allows chest belts. The freewheel assures safety while the silent belt is, well, silent!
Designed by doctors to keep you safe
CAROL’S BUILT IN SAFETY ALGORITHMS WILL AUTOMATICALLY STOP A RIDE IF NEEDED.
CAROL tracks your heart rate and recovery time and will auto abort a ride if anything abnormal is detected. Some people don’t conduct well through their hands. For them, a built in receiver links to a chest belt.
Progress is motivating
TRACK YOUR METRICS WITH THE FREE CAROL MOBILE APP
Track your cardiovascular fitness measured by CAROL’s Octane Score (OS) which is your power per heartbeat. The fitter you get, the more power you produce per heartbeat and your OS goes up.
Users can compete with their family, friends & colleagues.
Users can analyze their ride performance and many other biometrics, which can then be shared with personal trainers or doctors. Users can interact with the CAROL team.
