#223 — VO₂ Max and The Science Behind CAROL Bike: 8-Minute Workouts to Boost VO₂ Max, Metabolism & Longevity with Ulrich Dempfle


Listen Later

Can 8 Minutes Really Transform Your Fitness, Metabolism, and Longevity?

We’ve been told we need hours of cardio each week to stay fit but what if the science says otherwise?

In this episode, Ulrich Dempfl, co-founder and CEO of CAROL Bike, reveals how AI-powered workouts and REHIT (Reduced Exertion High-Intensity Training) are revolutionizing exercise by delivering maximum fitness results in minimum time.

This isn’t another quick-fix fitness fad. It’s a data-driven, scientifically validated method backed by research from top universities — and it’s transforming how busy, high-performing people train, burn fat, and extend their healthspan.

Ulrich Dempfl is a health tech innovator and the co-creator of the CAROL Bike, an AI exercise bike proven to dramatically improve VO₂ max, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic health all in under 9 minutes a day.

Together, we discuss:

◼️ The science behind REHIT — and how it differs from traditional HIIT

◼️ Why just two 20-second sprints can trigger profound metabolic changes

◼️ How CAROL Bike uses AI to personalize resistance and optimize results

◼️ The link between short, intense workouts and longevity biomarkers

◼️ How to reprogram your metabolism for fat loss and cardiovascular health

◼️ The future of smart, efficient fitness in an AI-driven world

This is a conversation that challenges everything you thought you knew about exercise, endurance, and time.

Ready to train smarter, live longer, and reclaim your time?

Tune in now to discover the 8-minute workout that’s redefining longevity.
