Frequently Asked Questions

What is a MET value?

MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) measures the energy cost of an activity relative to resting. 1 MET equals the energy used sitting quietly; running at 10km/h is about 9.8 METs.

Why does body weight affect calories burned?

Heavier bodies require more energy to move, so calorie burn scales with body weight for the same activity and duration.

Are these estimates exact?

These are population-based averages. Actual calorie burn varies with fitness level, terrain, effort, and individual metabolism.
