Unclear documentation regarding activity goals #35

I tried editing the goal for running distance from daily to weekly, but was unable to do so. This was extremely confusing, as I expected the goal to be specific to each sport. I presume now that the goal is unique for every combination of sport, type and period, but this was not clearly mentioned and caused lots of misunderstanding.

Team's Response

If the goals are tailored exclusively to each sport, this approach limits us from setting both long-term and short-term objectives. Furthermore, under your assumption of one goal per sport, we're restricted from having diverse goal types. This could be significantly unhelpful for users.

From a user's standpoint, it seems evident that the target value is the only aspect that can be adjusted when defining a goal. This is reflected in the 'TARGET' parameter. Additionally, the descriptions in the examples should provide further clarity.
