Hi guys,

So its spring, time for yard work! I just spent about 2 hours moving and planting trees, yeesh! I noticed though that yard work is not in the database. What do you guys log that as? It seems like it should be in there and I couldn't really find anything comparable....thoughts?

Also, just in general, Ive noticed that some people put their own thing in there (Ive noticed bikram yoga on someone's diary, which is also not in the database), how do you do that? And, how do you calculate those calories then?

Thanks guys, and happy spring!!! :)

    Mowing lawn, gardening, and raking are all in the database... would any of those work? If not, the only way you are going to get anything close to accurate is to get an HRM.

    There is a create your own exercise under the place you enter the exercises. I added Disc Golf. I found a web site that estimated the calorie value for an hour of playing.

    I use the "gardening, general" category for yard work other than lawn mowing.
