Carbs Burned by afasteryou
===========================

Track your carbohydrate usage in real time.  
This field shows the cumulative grams of carbohydrates (CHO) burned during your session – tailored to your personal metabolism.

------------------------------------------------------------
HOW IT WORKS
1. Take the afasteryou Powertest (paid, online) or automatically use our Powertest AI via Garmin Sync.
   Both provide your VO₂max and VLamax – essential for accurate substrate usage calculation.
2. Enter the code shown on your Garmin at:  
   https://afasteryou.com/connect/  
3. It may take up to 10 minutes after activation before the data field updates.  
   Until then, a pairing code will be shown.  
4. Add the field to a Running profile (uses speed) or a Cycling profile (requires power meter).  
5. Start your session – carbs burned (g) will accumulate in real time.

------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS
* Cycling – requires a paired power meter  
* Running – uses speed and altitude; no power sensor needed  
* The field shows a pairing code until VO2max and VLamax are set  
* Works indoors as long as power (bike) or speed (run) is available  

------------------------------------------------------------
DATA SYNC
* Your metabolic data (VO2max, VLamax) is synced automatically every 12 hours  
* If you complete a new Powertest, updates are applied at the next sync  

------------------------------------------------------------
ACCURACY
Calculations follow the metabolic model of Alois Mader (2003)  
and have been validated against lab-grade gas exchange data  
in cooperation with MSH Medical School Hamburg (University of Applied Sciences)

------------------------------------------------------------
WHY USE IT
* Monitor glycogen consumption in real time – essential for fueling strategies and smart pacing  
* Identify intensity thresholds where carb usage accelerates  
* Complements pace, heart rate, or power metrics with metabolic context  

------------------------------------------------------------
UPCOMING FEATURES
* AI-based Powertest guidance for daily optimized metabolic values  

------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER PRODUCTS
* **FatMax %** – shows real-time fat oxidation relative to your individual FatMax  
* **Training AI** – adaptive training plans for running and cycling, synced to Garmin via Garmin Training  
* **Activity AI** – advanced post-workout analysis: Fat & Carb usage, VO2max, VLamax, Training Score, CdA, muscle and blood lactate simulation
