How it's calculated
Mifflin-St Jeor for your basal metabolism, a factor for how active your day is, about 250 kcal for each strength session spread over the week, then your goal: 7,700 kcal per kilo of body weight, divided by seven days. The target never goes below your basal metabolism.
Protein comes first, then fat, and carbs fill the rest. It's the same calculation Minthra uses to set your targets in the app.
Minthra keeps it up to date
In the app, your targets are reviewed every two weeks against your weigh-ins.
