Calories Burned
Calories burned walking depends on your weight, speed, and distance. The formula uses MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) values.
Calories = MET × Weight (kg) × Time (hours)
MET values by walking speed:
- Slow (2 mph / 3.2 km/h): 2.0 MET
- Moderate (3 mph / 4.8 km/h): 3.5 MET
- Brisk (3.5 mph / 5.6 km/h): 4.3 MET
- Fast (4 mph / 6.4 km/h): 5.0 MET
- Very fast (4.5 mph / 7.2 km/h): 7.0 MET
Factors that increase calorie burn:
- Walking uphill or on uneven terrain
- Carrying extra weight (backpack)
- Higher body weight
- Walking on sand or soft surfaces
