I hve been taking my kids to the pool twice a week for a month and am wondering how many calories I am burning. I do have a polar f7 heart rate monitor but I I haven't worn it. For the most part I am walking around in the pool with the baby for 1 hour and giving my older kids swimming lessons for another hour.
I was thinking I'd just log it as walking at a slow pace? I don't know? Any thoughts? I'm used to doing Turbo Fire, Insanity, and P90X and such, so maybe I shouldn't log it all.

I would do as you thought and log it as the walking. IMO always better to under estimate the calories rather than over estimate.0
