Primal Shift Podcast #51: The Ultimate Time-Saving Workout | CAROL Bike and REHIT - Ulrich Dempfle
In this episode of the Primal Shift Podcast, I sit down with CAROL Bike CEO Ulrich Dempfle to discuss the science and benefits behind Reduced Exertion High-Intensity Interval Training (REHIT), a fitness modality developed to provide the most effective workout in the shortest possible amount of time.
For example, the CAROL Bike gives you a full cardio workout in just eight minutes, focusing on two strategically-timed 20-second sprints. Dempfle explains how this is possible, detailing the science behind how REHIT induces glycogen mobilization and the release of key molecules that signal the body to build more mitochondria, thereby increasing aerobic capacity and overall fitness.
We also talk about Dempfle’s journey from working in the German automotive industry to healthcare, where he recognized the critical role of exercise in the prevention of injury and disease, as well as the challenge of getting people to commit to regular workouts.
Whether or not you decide to give CAROL a try, this episode provides a valuable introduction to the science and application of REHIT, with tips on how to leverage this ultra-efficient training strategy to optimize your health and wellness.
In this episode:
00:00 - Intro
02:16 - Benefits of Short, Intense Workouts
04:18 - The Difference Between REHIT and HIIT
07:24 - Ulrich Dempfle’s Background and Journey

About Ulrich Dempfle:
Dempfle is the CEO and co-founder of CAROL Bike. After graduating in mechanical engineering from Germany’s leading tech university, he worked with some of Europe’s top automobile manufacturers. From there he moved to London, where he pioneered the use of AI for operational efficiency within UK health services. After watching a BBC documentary on Reduced Exertion HIIT (REHIT), Ulrich realized its potential to be the most effective cardio workout. The problem? REHIT was only possible in a lab setting. So Ulrich co-founded CAROL and worked with the world’s leading exercise researchers to take REHIT out of the lab. 40 prototypes later, the world’s only REHIT exercise bike was launched.

Cloud RO: Best Reverse Osmosis Water Filter System [REVIEW 2024]
I bought a Kineon Move+. After using for less than 2 weeks, one of the three modules seems to have died. Had the same problem with the FlexBeam after 6 weeks. Has anyone found a quality red light therapy device that is durable enough to function a year without having problems?
I want to see u without beard want u cut it off?
Great test! I would like to see the results of a steam bath, i.e., not a hot dry sauna that you add water to but a room heated by steam alone. That is what I use and the air temp only gets to about 115 F but at high humidity the heat index is in the 200 F range.
I eat 2oz of frozen raw beef liver daily with my waking meal. I also buy ground kidney and heart from the butcher and mix it with my regular ground beef. I’ve been doing this for a year and haven’t gotten sick AT ALL - not so much as a common cold or runny nose. Nothing 😁.
Is eating steak 🥩 often a good choice for meat to help with ibs ?
love my local Aldi’s , we shop here weekly and have saved so much money vs shopping at our HEB.
My best liver supplement is 2oz daily frozen liver 😄
FJB!!!
thank you very much Michael, very interesting
How much honey do you recommend eating per day?
Whenever I’ve seen ppl test these types of stickers with emf readers they never do anything. Verified Shungite though does lower emf in the tests I’ve seen.
Very skeptical
Thank you for the video . Which EMF meter/detector would you recommend ? Thanks
Wow ! Remove all plant foods ?! No way ! Glad ur helped you tho . Haha ! I just can’t do that . I don’t like meat . Eating all meat with nothing to go with it sounds awful 😭
The picture with the chickens in the back is CRAZY 🤣
THIS IS HORRIBLE ADVICE! Animal products just add fuel to the fire, make your insides, more inflamed, and you’re putting your body in such a state of inflammation. Animal products are very acidic and you’re just building an environment for cancer. I’m a nutritionist and unfortunately, I’ve seen what these stupid carnivore, keto, Atkins diets do long-term. I lost one friend to sudden cardiac arrest at 50 years old while on the carnivore diet. Another to cancer at 55. Whole Food Plant Based Diet is the way to healing, aging backwards, saving the planet (factory farming is the number one cause of dead sea zones, climate, change, water, depletion, and more. STOP SUPPORTING FACTORY FARMS
There is a 💯 % cure to H pylori virus and I got my cure from Dr Calm remedy and till now I’m completely free from it. Is a good thing to share my experience.
How to check your free food list sir ?
Would raw milk help?? I have gastritis. Any more tips my man?
Can I use RTH after a chemical peel? My aesthetician says no, but I’m curious about that because I feel like it would help the healing process.
I go to a spa and use red light therapy for 15 minutes a day. Within the first month: I sleep like a baby. My anxiety has decreased five-fold. The pain in my knees have decreased slightly. Scars on my feet from sun damage and bug bites are completely cleared. (This was an unexpected shocker). I have more energy (slightly) and feel more relaxed throughout the day. Lower back pain decreased by maybe 75%. I had hormonal acne on my face. It cleared in two day. Scarring cleated in 5. I will use this forever.
What would you recommend for a ruptured disk in a young person and degenerative spine in older adult please?
So the active ingredient in Ketone IQ is only R-1,3-butanediol, right? Isn't that the exact same ingredient that is found also in the "Hard Ketones" drinks? Then ones that are supposed to give you a "buzz" similar to drinking ethanol? In theory you should then get the same "buzz" from Ketone IQ, if drinking enough of it? Or am I missing something here?
Amazing video bro thank you what’s
No problem 👍
Have you compared its effects vs placenta supplements?
I have not but heard good things about placenta (supplements) for female reproductive health.
@@MichaelKummer ive read reviews about it with men also, specially deer and goat placenta for health and wellness bonus is the skin, but they are much more expensive some go high end specially deer placenta.
Papaitan is yum!🔥
Sunflower lecithin and stevia. That's a no for me.
Alcohol is my cheat day! Straight to the whiskey baby
So every carnivore UA-camr sells supplements now..? Interesting. Every time you say, "pasture raised", it sounds exactly like, "pasteurized".
Despite the flashy shirt, I’m actually on an animal-based diet that, as the name implies, is centered around animals (some of which we raise on the Kummer Homestead) but also includes certain plants and the expertise to “process” otherwise toxic plants to make them more compatible with human physiology.
i boil it n have it. The milk cream layer is yummy
So you pasteurize it? That’s all pasteurization is, it’s just bringing the milk to 70 degrees C for 20s to kill any harmful bacteria.
Had u pain in stomach when u were suffering from ibs
Yes. I’d say most everyone has who suffers from IBS.
I talked to olf folks and oh boy the government did yall dirty by saying you get Ecoli or salmonella etc just to scared you off and kept buying Homogenized & pasterise knowingly you will develop lactose intolerant and daily trip to the clinic. Aside from that they did your cows & chickens dirty by feeding corns, grains and things that ain't suppose to be their diet. Thats why the world is getting fatter and sicker
Right on!
Can you eat plants now?
I eat certain plants based on my animal-based dietary framework.
I’m patiently waiting for delivery which will be Tuesday, June 25th. My right shoulder needs some pain relief, and I’m hoping I made a right decision. Great video. Thank you.
Hi, can I add a harvia heater to a sunlighen mpulse or other sunlighen, to make a hybrid sauna?
I doubt that's a good idea because the electronics inside the mPulse are probably not rated for the temperatures (or humidity) the heater would produce.
@@MichaelKummer thanks, I would have thought so. Another channel was saying you could do that, but I thought I would ask you because your content is more scientificely based.

Excellent explanation, unfortunately i can't find your supplement here in Brazil.
We ship to Brazil from the U.S.!
Please tell me what is the name of this type of board/timber from which the walls of the barrel bath are made? I mean, does this board/timber have any special name in English?
It's called thermowood. Thermowood is created by heat treating Scandinavian softwood to temperatures ranging from 180 - 230° in special chamber kilns for up to 96 hours. Steam is used as a protective gas and helps to prevent the wood from splitting and becoming damaged during treatment.
@@MichaelKummer Thank you, but I probably didn’t express myself correctly (English is not my native language). What is the name of the board or beam, exactly this semicircular shape on the profile (cut of the board)? Profiled timber for a sauna? Crescent beam? Sorry, I still can’t find how to write in Google search to find this lumber :)
@@_Mak_YT English isn't my first language either but if you take a screenshot and mark the piece you're referring to, I can try and find out what the official name is :)
I like to blend mine up then mix it with ground beef. The ground beef helps mask the taste I get mine at the Asian markets in my city. They usually have a good variety of organ meats available like kidney, gizzards, heart etc .
Right on!
Thanks for sharing those facts about our stress levels and when is a good time to cold plunge or sauna.
Absolutely!
Used the MOVE+ Pro on my Tennis Elbow for 3 months. Multiple times a day, every day and seen zero improvement from using it. Overpriced placebo device.
Red light therapy (and Move+ Pro) isn't placebo but certain injuries can take months (as in 6+ months) to heal. Obviously, if you continue injuring or abusing the tissue, it'll heal much slower or not at all. Have you reached out to Kineon to get feedback on usage protocols? Also, there is such a thing as too much red light considering it's a stressor.
@@MichaelKummer I've not been continuing to injure the tissue, I've been resting from all upper body weight training and just doing recommended light stretching, massage and very light targeted strength exercises. And yes I've been told the usage protocols by Kineon and been following them. I'd already had the Tennis Elbow for 3 months prior to getting the MOVE+, so we're at the 6month mark.
@@mr_jc_1973 That's odd because even without any intervention (just rest), any soft-tissue injury should have healed unless something continuously causes tissue damage or there is serious cartilage or bone damage that takes longer to heal.
So the product you are promoting contains ingredients that youve spoken against many times in the past. Not a good look
What product are you referring to?
Are you referring to OneSkin? Check michaelkummer.com/health/oneskin-review/#5-ingredients for my take on those ingredients.
>WHat's the recommended max ammount of honey p/day? I'm eating around 4 soup spoons per day
There is no recommended amount. You don't need honey to heal your gut. It just helps with carb withdrawal symptoms if you're not used eating only protein and fat. I'd eat as little as possible.
great review, what is the size of your sauna?
It's the three-person mPulse Conquer!
Is 1 3 butanediol expensive?
Great video!
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing your information!
My pleasure!
Hi, there My Doctor wants me to look for a product that has beef.Organs, I see that you have one.
