yes, if wanting to give less for the food you could set exercise 1 at ~25% and excercise 2 at ~50%. Wouldn't want to bolus less than that I suppose as if you need even less, probably don't need to bolus. Settings do allow to do a +% also for times of illness, stress as some need to increase bolus at particular times .

Good luck, keep a record of what you reduce by, and her levels during activity and hopefully won't be long before its sorted.
