Work/work out

Hello, I am trying to find the best description in "workouts" for the job I do.
I work as a pest controller for aviary division.
This means alot of climbing, hanging and lifting.
Amy hints on what would be closest so It can be built in to help me gain weight.

    That's not a workout. That's your regular daily activity level. So in Goals you should set your daily activity to Very Active or whatever it's called. The resulting number is just an estimate to get you started. Track your calories, track your weight change, adjust accordingly.
