I just started walking/jogging yesterday with my 4 month old who weighs 13.8lbs and my jogger that weighs 30+ lbs. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how many calories are burned walking/jogging and pushing the stroller at a decent pace. There is no such thing in the database, so I just upped my pace to account for the extra weight.

Thank you in advance!

    There is the option "pushing or pulling stroller with child" in the database.

    Unless u have a hrm on u won't have an accurate calorie burn. I researched online for mine-pushing double stroller w/ 40 lbs worth of kids-not including the actually stroller and couldn't fing anything. Guess its better to figure under than over. If I were u I would just go under the pushing stroller exercise in database for now

    Thank you all! I agree, being under is better than being over. I do push myself into a good sweat and breathing pretty heavily, so I know I'm burning a decent amount=0)
