What’s up guys? When this app is giving you your macros, and it gives you the total number of calories for the day. Is how often and how intense your workouts are taken into consideration when they give you that total number? Like I plugged in my information at it said 2,240 for the whole day. I have intense workouts 5-6 days a week. That number seems a little low. What do you think?

    Your goal is 2240 + exercise calories which are estimated after the event when you log them in your exercise diary and not taken into account at all when you set up your goals.

    The other part to note is that the activity setting you choose is absolutely nothing to do with your purposeful exercise. It's your job and homelife activity only,
