Important Note
Calorie burn estimates from MET values are population averages and may vary by ±15–20% for individuals. Actual burn depends on fitness level, body composition, exercise efficiency, temperature, terrain, and other factors. MET values are from the 2011 Compendium of Physical Activities (Ainsworth et al., Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise). For the most accurate individual calorie estimates, use a heart rate monitor or power meter.
