How to calculate calories [burned]
The number of calories you burn while exercising is dependent on:
- the exercise you do
- your weight
- the time spent doing the activity
By multiplying the MET [*] value by the body weight in kg and the duration of the activity, you can estimate the energy expenditure in Kcal specific to a person's body weight. This statement can be expressed as the following formula:
Calories burned = METs x weight x [time / 60]
So, a 70 kg individual listening to music for 60 minutes expends the following:
[1.3 METs x 70 kg] x [60 min/60 min] = 91.0 Kcal.
Notes:
- 1.3 is the value in METs for listening to music
- The time unit is expressed in minutes
- The mass [weight] unit is expressed in kilograms
- We divide the time by 60 [min] because the MET unit uses hour.
[*] MET means 'metabolic equivalent'
