Frequently Asked Questions
How to calculate calories burned while walking?
Calories burned are calculated considering your weight, height, gender, speed, incline, and walking time. The calculation uses MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) as a base.
What is MET and how does it affect the calculation?
MET is a measure that indicates the intensity of physical activity. For walking, MET ranges from 2.5 (light walking) to 6.5 (very brisk walking), depending on speed and incline.
How does incline affect calorie burn?
Incline significantly increases exercise intensity. A 1% incline increases MET by approximately 0.2, resulting in more calories burned.
Why is gender a factor in the calculation?
Men and women have different body compositions and metabolic rates. The calculation includes a gender adjustment factor for greater accuracy.
How to estimate the number of steps?
The number of steps is estimated based on your height and gender. Step length is calculated as 41.5% of height for men and 41.3% for women.
