Revolutionising Fitness with AI

In this episode of AI for Equity, Leah and Jenny chat with Varun Bhanot, founder of Magic AI, about how his own health journey sparked the idea for a super accessible, AI-powered personal training platform. We dive into how Reflect AI uses computer vision to give real-time workout feedback, why inclusivity matters in fitness tech, and how Magic AI is helping people—especially beginners and folks from underrepresented communities—get moving without breaking the bank.

From busting barriers like cost and geography to sharing stories of real impact, Varun gets real about the role of AI in wellness and why human connection still matters. Oh—and he drops some gems on pushing past imposter syndrome in entrepreneurship too.

If you’re into fitness, tech, or just love a good founder story, this one's for you.
