how would you classify my activity level

Horselover11209

I just got a job working at a Small Private horse ranch where my duties are to muck 6 stalls, turn the horses in and outside, feed and water them and do some simple barn chores. Grooming a few horses for extra hours Is optional. It Is part time until the summer (3 or 4 times a week, half days 3-4 hours) but will become full time in the Summer. So i would assume That would Be some Daily excercise ( i have been sedentary as of the last few months). On days i am not working i Will go out for a few short walks with my dog (usually one before i est and one after, both about 30 minutes each).

i am Just trying to determine which activity class i would Be classified as.

Since your work hours vary depending on grooming, etc., you might want to set your activity as lightly active for your off-work days and log your work as exercise. You'd have to do some experimentation to find calorie burn numbers to fit those activities. Or pick a higher activity level (or go by TDEE) to have a consistent calorie goal.

Cool job!
