Method
The calculation multiplies the activity’s MET value from the 2024 Compendium of Physical Activities by your weight in kilograms and the duration in hours. Additional calories subtract 1 MET, the conventional resting level.
Limitations
- A standard MET describes a typical activity, not your actual effort: hills, wind, a load or breaks change the expenditure.
- The convention of 1 MET ≈ 1 kcal per kilogram per hour is an average: actual resting metabolism varies from person to person.
- Children, teenagers and adults over 60 need other reference values.
