Hiking with weight on.

I have same question.  I'd like my estimated workout stats (like calories, VO2, etc) to reflect the extra weight I was carrying.  I'm surprised that "weight vest" isn't already available as a type of gear, and the computations updated include my weight and the weight of the gear.  Would be a great feature.

I see this same question was asked in the past, and hasn't received an answer.  Please upvote this thread if you'd also like to see the feature added.

Calories are counted automatically from the increased HR, so no need for that. Same goes for the Training Effect, and most other metrics. It is true that the VO₂max won't reflect the additional weight, but you can run anytime without the weight to get the right estimate.

Other than seeing in another thread to manually change your weight before and after I haven’t see any solution. I too would like to see that there is an option for weighted gear, for training for a backpacking trip and the actual trip itself!
