AI HIIT bike launches in bike shop by Smartech

The CAR.O.L bike has been chosen as the only stationary exercise bike to feature in this space that launches on 22nd July for two weeks. It will show some of the most exciting new bike tech available in the world today.

Pop in the store and discover how the scientifically proven CAR.O.L bike uses artificial intelligence to replace a lab exercise physiologist, and personal trainer to give you the most personalised and optimised ride. You won’t sweat but you'll still feel like you have done a hard 45-minute jog.

You only need to get on CAR.O.L three times a week to quickly reach your health goals. A session on CAR.O.L supercharges a workout by rapidly depleting glycogen stores and burning fat.

Working out on CAR.O.L is the same as going for a 45-minute job or spending an hour in a spin class, but you won’t sweat so you won’t need to change or shower or waste time getting to and from the gym or getting changed. Just spend under nine minutes on the bike, with 2 x 20 seconds of personalised, maximally intense sprints, and you’ll be immediately ready to get on with your day.

CAR.O.L has been independently tested by the American Council on Exercise (ACE) in a randomised, controlled independent trial against longer duration, government exercise guidelines. CAR.O.L doubled the benefits and outperformed on all 11 health markers.

CAR.O.L, short for Cardiovascular Optimisation Logic, uses AI, based on the data it has on you (weight, body composition and your performance in each ride) to do the thinking for you, adjusting your settings in every ride to create customised programmes that will either push you harder or slow you down, until you reach your genetic 'set point' for fitness.

An initial body scan helps CAR.O.L build a data picture and uses advanced technology that includes a screen monitor, heart rate monitor, ergometer (most accurate on the market) to take readings from you three times a second.

CAR.O.L has a dramatic impact on blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity and studies have shown that using CAR.O.L has a better impact on blood sugar than regular walking for people who are diabetic or insulin resistant.

Ratna Singh, CEO and Founder of CAR.O.L said: “We’re so excited to be part of Smartech’s Bike Shop installation in the Selfridges Corner Shop and in Smartech’s dedicated space in the store. This is the ultimate venue for us to showcase CAR.O.L in London. The incredible science behind this bike means that in eight weeks of following CAR.O.L’s uber short protocols, three times a week, you will reach your fitness, health and weight loss goals faster than with any other form of HIIT or traditional exercise regimes.”
