This tool helps you estimate how many calories you will burn while snorkeling based on your weight and the duration of your activity.
How to Use the Snorkeling Calorie Calculator
To use the snorkeling calorie calculator, follow these simple steps:
- Enter your weight in kilograms (kg) in the first input box.
- Enter the duration of your snorkeling activity in minutes.
- Choose the intensity of your snorkeling activity from “Low, Moderate, High” in the dropdown menu.
- Click the “Calculate” button to view the number of calories burned during your snorkeling activity.
- The result will be shown immediately below the “Result (Calories burned)” label.
Calculation Details
The snorkeling calorie calculator estimates the number of calories burned based on the MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) values for snorkeling activities:
- Low Intensity: 4 METs
- Moderate Intensity: 7 METs
- High Intensity: 11 METs
The formula used to calculate calories burned is:
Calories Burned = (MET value * weight in kg * duration in minutes) / 60
Limitations
Please note that this calculator provides an estimate and may not be 100% accurate for all individuals. Factors such as your fitness level, age, and snorkeling conditions can affect actual calorie burn. For precise fitness advice and measurements, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional.
