These articles explain the rules VegaLoop applies when it connects what you log: how training changes tomorrow’s calorie target, how a hard week and poor sleep change today’s readiness, what happens to a planned session you miss. The thresholds are the ones the app uses. The screens themselves are described in Guides.

Readiness starts from form, which is fitness minus fatigue, and drops a step when the week’s load is more than 10 percent above the previous week or when you have eaten more than 20 percent under target for three days. The morning check-in decides whether a low readiness changes a planned session. The calendar sets each day’s fuel target, with more carbohydrate on hard days and a deficit only on rest and easy days. A workout you do is matched to a planned session on three rules; a session you miss is moved once or dropped, never added to another day. Goals count what you log, and the streak counts a day with one logged meal or one completed workout.

Readiness and the suggestions are built from training load, sleep, hydration, nutrition, and the check-in. They do not include your medical history. The calorie target has floors it will not go below, but no mode for pregnancy, a medical condition, or recovery from an eating disorder. VegaLoop and your health covers what the app does and does not do, and when to talk to a clinician.
