This tool estimates your daily point weight based on your input data.
How to Use the Activity Caloric Burn Estimator
This calculator estimates the number of calories burned during physical activity based on user inputs such as weight, age, duration and intensity of activity, and gender.
- Enter your weight in pounds.
- Enter your age in years.
- Enter the duration of the activity in minutes.
- Select the intensity level of the activity (low, moderate, or high).
- Select your gender.
How the Calculation Works
The formula takes into account:
- Weight: Heavier individuals generally burn more calories.
- Duration: Longer activities burn more calories.
- Intensity: Higher intensity activities burn more calories per minute.
- Gender: Incorporates a gender difference factor where men may burn slightly more calories than women for the same activity.
Caloric Burn = (Weight * Intensity Multiplier) * Duration
adjusted by a small gender-specific coefficient.Limitations
This calculator provides an estimate only and is based on generalized assumptions. Actual caloric burn can vary due to factors such as body composition, overall fitness level, metabolic rate, and efficiency of movement. It should not be used as a substitute for professional health or fitness advice.
