How It Works

Calculate optimal intra-workout carbohydrate intake rate (g/hour) based on exercise duration, intensity, and individual glycogen oxidation capacity

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Exercise duration — The exercise duration recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Intensity — The intensity recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Individual glycogen oxidation capacity — The individual glycogen oxidation capacity recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the intra-workout carbs result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the exercise duration, intensity, individual glycogen oxidation capacity for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate optimal intra-workout carbohydrate intake rate (g/hour) based on exercise duration, intensity, and individual glycogen oxidation capacity. Use the intra-workout carbs result to inform your calculation.
