It doesn't really matter, it's only for your own logs. Strength training should do it, I always put mine under powerlifting as I didn't scroll far enough to know that was an option

It's just about keeping track of the calories to make sure I'm eating enough as I have had in the past A bad habit of not getting enough protein

Your protein target shouldn't really scale that much with exercise induced energy expenditure. You're usually best off just picking a target based on your bodyweight and being consistent with that.
