One MET corresponds to an energy expenditure of 1 kcal/kg/hour. One MET can also be expressed as oxygen uptake of 3.5 ml/kg/min.</p> 145 <p>METs are used to estimate how many calories are burned during many common physical activities.</p> 146 <div class="img-mets-wrapper"> 147 <div class="img-mets"></div> 148 <div class="img-mets1"></div> 149 </div><!--img-mets-wrapper--> 150 </div><!--container--> 151</section><!--definition--> 152 153<section class="how-to"> 154 <div class="container"> 155 <div class="line"></div> 156 <h2>How it Works</h2> 157 <p>We will demonstrate how the calculator works with a simple example:</p> 158 <p>Susan is a 70kg (~154 lbs) woman who walked her dog for exactly 30 min. According to the <a href="https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxjb21wZW5kaXVtb2ZwaHlzaWNhbGFjdGl2aXRpZXN8Z3g6MjgyY2EyMzQzNWFlN2Q3OA" target="_blank">metabolic equivalent table</a>, walking the dog corresponds to an energy expediture of 3.0 METs. In order to perform the calculation, all we have to do is to multiply the weight (kg), the metabolic equivalent of a task (MET) and the time of the activity (hr).</p> 159 <p>Remember that 1 MET = 1 kcal/kg/hr</p> 160 <p>Units of time must be converted to hours. Therefore, 30 min = 0.5 hr</p> 161 <p><b>Calories burned = 70 kg x 3 kcal/kg/hr x 0.5 hr = 105 kcals burned</b></p> 162 <p>It is important to know that this formula does not take into consideration characteristics such as age and sex and should only be used as estimates.</p> 163 <p>Still complicated? Don't worry, our calculator will do all the math for you! Just type your values and choose the most appropriate activity.</p> 164 <br> 165 </div><!--container--> 166</section><!--how-to--> 167 168<section class="common-activities"> 169 <div class="container"> 170 <div class="line"></div> 171 <h2>Common Activities</h2> 172 <br> 173 <div class="activities-table"> 174 <table> 175 <th>Light Intensity Activities</th> 176 <th class="activities-table-mets">METs</th> 177 <tr> 178 <td>Sleeping</td> 179 <td>0.95</td> 180 </tr> 181 <tr> 182 <td>Watching television</td> 183 <td>1.0</td> 184 </tr> 185 <tr> 186 <td>Writing, desk work, typing</td> 187 <td>1.3</td> 188 </tr> 189 <tr> 190 <td>Walking, household</td> 191 <td>2.0</td> 192 </tr> 193 <tr> 194 <td>Walking, 2.0 mph (3.2 km/h)</td> 195 <td>2.8</td> 196 </tr> 197 198 <th>Moderate Intensity Activities</th> 199 <th class="activities-table-mets">METs</th> 200 <tr> 201 <td>Walking the dog</td> 202 <td>3.0</td> 203 </tr> 204 <tr> 205 <td>Walking, 2.8 - 3.2 mph (4.5 - 5.1 km/h), level, moderate pace</td> 206 <td>3.5</td> 207 </tr> 208 <tr> 209 <td>Calisthenics, (e.g., push ups, sit ups, pull-ups, lunges), moderate effort</td> 210 <td>3.8</td> 211 </tr> 212 <tr> 213 <td>Yard work, general, moderate effort</td> 214 <td>4.0</td> 215 </tr> 216 <tr> 217 <td>

When people start exercising, they usually get too focused on the outcome and forget about the process. But what does that mean?</p> 278 <p>It means that the person is so focused on the end-goal that they forget that in order to reach it, it must be something attainable and enjoyable. Not everyone likes to be on a treadmill or the elliptical machine for hours. If you want exercise to become a habit, you must first choose an activity you enjoy.</p> 279 </div> 280 <div class="w40 right"> 281 <div class="img-wrapper-r"> 282 <div class="img-beginners"></div> 283 </div> 284 </div> 285 <div class="clear"></div> 286 <p>With our calculator you can find a comprehensive list of any imaginable physical activity, along with how many calories you are burning when performing the chosen activity. So if your goal is to have a caloric deficit to lose some weight, our calculator will help you achieve your goals faster.</p> 287 <br> 288 </div><!--content-wrapper--> 289 </div><!--container--> 290</section> 291 292<section class="regulars"> 293 <div class="container"> 294 <div class="content-wrapper"> 295 <div class="w60 right"> 296 <h2>For Regular Exercisers...</h2> 297 <p>Let's say you exercise regularly and would like to maintain a healthy lifestyle throughout your life to reduce the risk of a cardiovascular disease. The information provided here could also help you achieve that goal.</p> 298 <p>According to the 2018 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, it is recommended that adults complete between 150 to 300min of moderate-intensity activity or 75 to 150min of vigorous-intensity activity. But how does it translate to MET values?</p> 299 <p>The same guidelines classify physical activity intensity utilizing MET values. An activity is classified as moderate-intensity if it falls between 3.0 and 6.0 METs, with anything above 6.0 being classified as a vigorous-intensity activity.</p> 300 </div> 301 <div class="w40 left"> 302 <div class="img-wrapper-l"> 303 <div class="img-regulars"></div> 304 </div> 305 </div> 306 <div class="clear"></div> 307 <p>

For this reason, the concept of periodization becomes very important. Different physical activities induce different physiological responses.
