I am going hiking today, and I know there is a category in Exercise for hiking.. BUT.. I will be bringing my son, who is 22 lbs, in a baby carrier... Not sure how to log this, but I'm sure the extra weight will help me burn more calories.. Any suggestions?

    This site has a better hiking calculator.

    You can use it to figure out how many calories you burned based on your weight and the weight you are carrying.
    Have fun and stay safe!

    I used to carry my daughter in a carrier and wear my HRM. I didn't burn many more calories, but I did get a better leg workout (strength training).
