Can the app make adjustments to your calories and other nutrient needs due to strength exercises?

I just joined the app and see that the app makes adjustments for nutrient needs due to cardio activity but nothing for the strength exercises. Is this a flaw in the app or I am missing something when I record the activity?

    To get calories credited for your work out, use the strength training entry under cardio. Enter the entire duration of your workout, the entry has rest time factored into it.
