    Do you mean when you add exercise?

    I guess it's when I do add exercise into the mix

    When you log exercise it allocates you additional calories, and those are split across the macros of carbs, fat and protein.

    I haven't noticed this, then again my protein goal is not what i'm really after, for some reason I can't adjust it to what my coach and my TDEE told me it's ok so I just let it be there while I keep in mind the real number I'm after.

    The default is working just fine for me: 50% carbs, 30% fat, 20% protein.
