Trying to figure out how many calories I burned while waking at a steady pace and pushing my son in a wheelchair? IF any one can help me figure this out would greatly appreciate it. I see where there is a exercise in the data base for : Running(jogging, training, pushing wheelchair, but I am not sure it that means pushing a wheelchair while jogging or pushing a wheelchair equals jogging???

If it helps I was walking at about 3.0 pace and walked for 45 mins. Appreciate any help on this . Thanks a Million!

    Hello,
    Under the cardio workouts. There is one for walking and pushing a stroller. Now, I know a wheelchair is heavier, but might be the best way to get an estimated amount.
    Hope that helps.

    Thanks,
    I did see that one and thought about it. Figure that the wheelchair is heavier and so is the child in it..lol... but do appreciate the advice thanks so much.
