Anybody know how i can add my calories burned from walking/ jogging with stroller. I don't see it listed but on my old app i used it was different than just walking. :flowerforyou:

    could not find it either but it has to be more then just walking because you are pushing weight. Good exercise and habit for the both of you good job.

    I had that same question. What other people suggested is logging it as walking at whatever pace you walk at PLUS pushing a stroller with child. Hope that helps!

    i would just use it as walking the weight that you are pushing i would think is minimal it is on wheels

    Mmmm, I have a triple jogger loaded with 3 kids. Total weight is approx. 90 lbs. Not so much minimal. I just log it like i didn't have the stroller...I figure with that extra exercise, the pounds are going to come off anyway whether the computer says so or not :)

    ps--it's hard a lot of times to get in exercise with kids needing you...great job!
