Caloric burn by activity

Data based on the 2024 Compendium of Physical Activities. MET values × your weight = kcal/hour.

Your weight:kg→ kcal/h = MET × 70 kg

How are calories calculated?

We use MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) values from the 2024 Compendium of Physical Activities. 1 MET = energy at rest (~1 kcal/kg/h). An 8 MET activity burns 8 times what you'd burn at rest.

Formula: kcal/hour = MET × weight (kg). Values are estimates — actual burn varies with fitness level, technique, and individual metabolism.
