Purpose: It helps you track energy expenditure during walking, supporting goals like weight loss, fitness, or maintaining a healthy lifestyle with this simple activity.
The calculator uses these formulas to estimate calories burned:
- Pace, speed, and MET values:
Details: Walking burns calories (e.g., 65.74 kcal for 1,000 steps at slow pace for 100 kg) and offers health benefits like improved cardiovascular health, prevention of chronic diseases, and mood enhancement. This tool quantifies your effort for fitness goals.
Tips: Enter your weight, height, number of steps, and pace. Results show total calories burned, per-step calories, and per-hour calories, helping you plan daily activity for weight loss or fitness.
It uses stride and MET estimates, but actual burn varies with terrain, pace, and individual factors.
Approximately 65.74 kcal at slow pace, 55.19 kcal at average pace, and 59.03 kcal at fast pace for 100 kg, varying with weight, height, and pace.
Yes, faster paces (higher MET, e.g., 5.06 vs. 2.92) burn more calories due to increased intensity and shorter time.
Yes, walking regularly (e.g., 7,000-10,000 steps daily) with a calorie deficit can support weight loss effectively.
