On this episode, I am super excited to welcome Ulrich Dempfle. Ulrich is the co-founder and CEO of CAROL Bike, a revolutionary exercise bike designed around Reduced Exertion High-Intensity Interval Training (REHIT). With a background in mechanical engineering and healthcare innovation, Dempfle has worked closely with leading exercise researchers to develop CAROL, the world’s first AI-powered REHIT bike. His mission is to provide maximum fitness benefits in minimal time, addressing the common barriers people face with traditional exercise routines, such as lack of time and motivation. Under his leadership, CAROL has gained attention from both mainstream fitness enthusiasts and the biohacking community for its data-driven, science backed approach to exercise.
