Calories Burned Calculator
Calories Burned Calculator
Estimate energy used during an activity.
How it works
MET stands for metabolic equivalent of task. Activity tables provide approximate values for different tasks and intensities.
Using this calculator
Choose a matching activity from the Compendium and enter its MET value, your weight and duration. Gross energy includes the resting portion of the session. Additional energy uses MET minus one.
What to keep in mind
These are standardized estimates. Personal fitness, terrain, efficiency and actual resting metabolism affect energy use. Avoid counting the same exercise again if it is already included in your TDEE.

Are my entries saved?

Why are results rounded?
The display is rounded for readability. Calculations use unrounded intermediate values. An estimate should not be interpreted as an exact measurement.
