Most apps hand you a target and hide the maths. Tap any number in KEXBI and it opens.
Four things the engine is for. Everything below is the working behind them.
Push hard on too little fuel and your body quietly stops adapting. No new muscle, no faster pace, just a plateau you can't explain. KEXBI tops the energy back up before your progress pays for it.
Fading in the back half is often a fuelling problem, not a fitness one. KEXBI paces in what your gut can absorb while you go, so you fuel the workout while it is happening.
Most plans cut everything at once, protein included. KEXBI raises your protein as your calories come down. You lose fat and keep the muscle you fought for.
The number that fits you today is wrong within weeks. KEXBI moves the target with your weight trend rather than leaving you on a stale estimate.
Eat back everything your watch reports and you can train hard for months while going nowhere. Three figures come off one workout, and only one of them is dinner.
Off your watch, resting metabolism included.
What the work itself cost.
After the part your body claws back by moving less. This is what lands on your plate.
One real 73 minute trail run. Of the 497 calorie gap, only 96 was behaviour. Compensation curve: Careau et al. 2021, n=1,754.
You stop learning the hard way which breakfast ruins a morning run. KEXBI knows when each food works, and how long it sits with you.
A score for eleven moments in a day, from two hours before training through to pre-bed. The porridge that works at 6am never turns up at 5:45pm.
The kind of protein, solid or liquid, how fast it digests. It is what stops a slow protein landing before a hard morning.
Estimated from primary literature, not measured in a lab. The minutes are there to read, not to run the plan.
A calorie count is the baseline. What matters is how a food behaves in your body, and when it belongs in your day.
The same tub of whey protein, in both worlds:
Feeds your muscles slowly through the overnight fast.
Fast protein for the hours after hard training, when it is easiest to hit your recovery dose.
Fuel you can carry, for the middle of a long effort.
Sources: USDA, CoFID, BLS, Open Food Facts, manufacturer labels, University of Sydney GI data. Portions adjust for how you cook it, so a drizzle of oil is never a bowl of it.
The longer you go, the more fuelling decides whether you finish strong or fall apart.
From your own height, weight and body fat, not a generic profile. Then resting burn, everyday movement and the day's training.
On a rest day the training block is zero and the total drops to 1,758. Whatever the day, there is always enough fuel left for your body to turn the training into progress.
Thirteen of the twenty-six systems build a day in stages, each able to overrule the last. One afternoon snack, four decisions.
The finished plan is checked against a rulebook and sent back if it fails. Safety outranks everything: when under-fuelling is detected, the energy goes back in.
When a target cannot be hit with the food you own, we do not fudge it. The plan records which macro it missed, by how much, why, and what would fix it.
Six groups of systems check the day before it is set. You can inspect any one of them, and you never have to.
What last night can support, before anything is set.
When fuel and hydration should land.
What the day needs, not a generic calorie target.
Enough left to build on, and limits your gut can hold.
Rewrites the day when your training or your weight moves.
Keeps the plan inside the food you actually have.
Built on work by Burke, Areta, Jeukendrup, Aragon and Schoenfeld and dozens more. Where a rule rests on published research, we name the source so you can read it yourself.
KEXBI's safety limits are guidance to keep you fuelled, not medical advice or a diagnosis. If something feels off, speak to a clinician or a sports dietitian.
