I don't understand the daily and weekly exercise totals on MFP

Can someone explain?

    The daily goal was the number of minutes you said you intended to exercise when you set up your goal. The weekly goal is that times the number of days you said you intended to do that amount of time exercising. So if you said you intended to do 90 minutes of exercise a day 6 days a week you would get 540 minutes for the weekly goal.

    It has been years since I set up those goals, so I don't even remember what I said. Basically it is meant to keep you on track, that intended goal will not change you daily calorie goal at all until you actually exercise.

    90 minutes a day, 6 days a week is rather ambitious.
