Free online calorie burn calculator: estimate calories burned during running, walking, cycling, swimming, yoga, jump rope, and weight lifting. Based on MET values. Perfect for fitness tracking. Mac OS 9 retro style.
Enter your body weight in kilograms. Your weight is a key factor in the MET-based formula that calculates how many calories you burn during exercise.
Choose from 7 activities: running, walking, cycling, swimming, yoga, jump rope, or weight lifting. Each activity has a specific MET value. Then enter the duration of your workout in minutes (1-600).
Click 'Calculate Burn' to instantly see the estimated calories burned for your activity. The result uses the formula: MET × 3.5 × weight (kg) / 200 × duration (minutes).
Q: How accurate is the calorie burn estimate?
A: The calculator uses MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) values, which are standard research-based estimates. Actual calorie burn varies based on intensity, fitness level, metabolism, and body composition. Use this as a helpful guideline rather than an exact measurement.
Q: Which activity burns the most calories?
A: Jump rope has the highest MET value (10.0) among the listed activities, followed by running at 8 km/h (8.0 MET). However, the best choice depends on your fitness level, preferences, and what you can sustain consistently.
Q: Can I use this for weight loss planning?
A: Yes, the calculator helps estimate exercise calories to create a calorie deficit. For weight loss, combine this with a balanced diet. A deficit of 500-1000 calories per day typically leads to 0.5-1 kg of weight loss per week.
