Why targets changed

Premium

Tap Why targets changed to see the locked Adaptive Decision: recovery, weight sparkline, TDEE, and the calorie/macro deltas for today.

When Adaptive Macros are on, rings on Nutrition are today’s numbers, not a static plan from onboarding. Why targets changed is the receipt.

Open the explainer

  1. Open Home or Nutrition.
  2. Tap Why targets changed (also labeled on the Adaptive Targets / Nutrition Coach surfaces).
  3. Read the breakdown: recovery band, weight sparkline, TDEE comparison, and the calorie / macro deltas versus baseline.

You should see the same locked decision that Home’s coach plan, Nutrition rings, and Apple Watch Nutrition tab use. Hammr does not keep a separate “secret” target per screen.

How to read it

You seeWhat it means
Recovery bandOvernight Recovery (not Readiness) nudged protein/carbs/calories
Weight sparkline28-day trend from logged weigh-ins
TDEEFormula estimate vs measured intake + weight change
DeltasToday versus your baseline macros, inside safety caps

Examples:

  • Poor recovery → protein up, carbs trimmed.
  • Cut + weight not dropping → slight calorie reduction.
  • Cut + losing too fast → calories and protein up.
  • High activity vs expected → partial credit added to calories.

If the numbers look wrong

  1. Confirm you logged weight recently. Sparse weigh-ins weaken the trend.
  2. Confirm Apple Health / Watch or Oura actually delivered last night’s recovery.
  3. Check that Adaptive Macros is enabled in Settings.
  4. Remember: Premium without a wearable still adapts from intake + weight, without the recovery component.
