Carb planner for runners lets runners, running clubs and endurance communities add a practical endurance nutrition planner to a WordPress page with a shortcode.
The plugin includes a built-in Dutch and English front-end. The WordPress settings interface is in English. The site administrator can choose the default public planner language under
Settings > Carb planner, and an individual shortcode can override that setting with
language="en" or
language="nl".
The front-end planner is intentionally product-neutral. It does not recommend products, display shop prices, collect email addresses, create user accounts, set marketing cookies, load remote scripts, or call an external calculation API. Calculations run locally in the visitor's browser.
The planner uses exercise duration, body weight, self-reported carbohydrate tolerance, average speed, sex, temperature conditions and self-reported sweating as inputs. It returns an indicative carbohydrate target, a 30-minute distribution, a fluid testing range and an estimated sodium-loss range.
The output is intended as a practical starting point for testing during training. It is not individual medical or sports-dietetic advice.
The plugin includes an optional
Aeroob.nl attribution link. It is disabled by default and can only be enabled deliberately by the site administrator. The attribution is never shown on
aeroob.nl itself.
