Calorie Burn

Estimate calories from MET, weight, and minutes.

Loading tool

Pick an activity or type a MET, then minutes and weight. Wearables and gym machines will disagree. Treat the number as an estimate.

How to use this tool

Enter your measurements. Use the units shown on the labels. Do not send medical data anywhere.
Read the estimate. These formulas are public rules of thumb, not a diagnosis.
Talk to a clinician for decisions. Do not change medicine, diet, or training from this page alone.

Metabolic equivalents come from published compendia averages. Your effort may be higher or lower. This is not a lab measurement.

Does this include BMR during the workout?

Standard MET estimates include resting cost for that period. Read the note on the result line.

Why is the treadmill different?

Machine formulas and grips vary. Neither is ground truth.

Are MET calories a clinical energy study?

No. They are table averages and an estimate, not medical advice.

Can I add custom MET?

Yes, if you have a value from a table.

Are strength sets accurate?

Circuit-style METs are rough. Rest between sets is easy to miss.
