# Nutrition targets & calorie calculator

**Nutrition targets** are your daily calorie and macro goals — the line your food diary measures against.

## Using the calorie calculator

Not sure what your numbers should be?

1. Open **Nutrition targets** from the menu.
2. Use the built-in **calorie calculator**: enter your stats and select your goal (lose, maintain or gain).
3. Save the result as a target — done.

## Creating targets manually

You can create as many targets as you like with your own calories, protein, carbs and fat — useful if you or your coach already know your numbers.

## Different targets for different days

Targets can be applied to **selected days** and **scheduled** — so training days can carry more carbs than rest days, or weekends can run a different calorie level. Set it once and the right target is active on the right day automatically.

## With a coach

If your coach manages your nutrition, they can set your targets for you — you'll just see the right goal in your food diary each day.
