Fuel planner
Plan your fuel
Enter your session and we’ll work out carbs, sodium and fluid per hour, then build the basket for you.
How the numbers work
Carbs. Under an hour you rarely need fuel. From 1–2.5 hours, 30–60 g per hour. Longer and harder, 60–90 g per hour, using a mix of glucose and fructose so your gut can absorb more. Every Soulset carb product uses a 2:1 ratio.
Sodium. Sweat losses vary widely, from about 300 to over 1,500 mg per litre. Heat and humidity raise them. If you finish sessions with salt on your skin, start with more.
Fluid. Drink to thirst, roughly 500–750 ml per hour, more in the heat. Weigh yourself before and after a long session to learn your own rate.
