Smart carbs reminder
When using the smart carbs reminder, set the estimated session duration and intensity, and we'll estimate the amount
of carbs you'll need for refueling during your session. When estimating your carbohydrate need for refueling we take
your training background and physical settings including age, gender, height, weight, maximum heart rate, resting heart
rate, VO2max, aerobic heart rate threshold and anaerobic heart rate threshold into account.
Your capability to absorb carbohydrates is estimated from your training background. This limits the maximum amount
of carbohydrates (grams per hour) that the smart carbs reminder can give you. This data is used to pre-calculate the
relationship between your heart rate and carbohydrate consumption rate based on your physical settings. The
recommended carbohydrate intake rate is then adjusted up or down (within min/max limits) based on your heart rate
data and the pre-calculated heart rate vs. carbohydrate consumption rate relationship.
During training, your watch will track your actual energy expenditure and adjust the frequency of the reminders
accordingly but the portion size (carbs in grams) is always the same during a session.
