How We Calculate Calories Burned

Our calculator uses a widely accepted method based on a value called the **Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET)**. A MET value represents the energy cost of a specific physical activity compared to resting metabolism. For instance, an activity with a MET of 1 is equivalent to the energy you expend just sitting still. An activity with a MET of 5 means you are burning five times more energy than you would at rest.

Calories Burned per Minute = (MET Value × Body Weight in kg × 3.5) ÷ 200

We multiply this per-minute value by the duration of your activity to provide an accurate estimate of your total energy expenditure. This method allows for a personalized calculation based on your weight and chosen activity.

Disclaimer: This is an estimate for informational purposes. Actual calories burned can be influenced by factors like age, sex, body composition, and intensity, which are not accounted for in this calculation.
