Shoveling Snow Monitor? (alien.top)

I can understand why Apple may be reluctant to introduce snow shoveling as a workout; getting a dozen software engineers from California to get cups of hot coco to trial it would be a tough sell.

Whereas thousands of people suffer from cardiac episodes directly associated from shoveling snow each year, I would love to see Apple add it in as a safety monitor similar to car crash detection if nothing else.

Does anyone know of third party watch apps which can track snow shoveling in the meantime?

So I recently started using Gentler Streak for tracking workouts and this post made me check to see if that app has a shoveling option. To my surprise, it does!
