Calorie Burn Calculator
Estimate calories burned for common activities from weight and duration.
Based on MET values. Actual burn depends on intensity, fitness and metabolism.
How to use Calorie Burn Calculator
Three quick steps — no sign-up needed
-
Step 1
Enter weight and duration
Add your body weight in kg and how many minutes you exercised.
-
Step 2
Choose an activity
Pick from the list such as walking, jogging, running, cycling, swimming, weight training, aerobics, hiking, yoga, or dancing.
-
Step 3
See estimated calories
Read the estimated burn for that session - a guide based on typical MET-style effort, not a lab measurement.
About Calorie Burn Calculator
Calorie Burn Calculator estimates energy used during common exercises from your weight, session length, and activity type. Queries like "calories burned walking", "running calorie calculator", and "exercise calorie estimator" are the usual intent.
Enter weight in kilograms, duration in minutes, and select an activity (walking at about 4 km/h, jogging, running, cycling, swimming, weight training, aerobics, hiking, yoga, dancing, and similar options on the list). The math uses typical intensity assumptions; real burn varies with pace, terrain, fitness, and efficiency.
Wearables and machines also disagree with each other. Use this figure for rough planning - for example comparing a 30-minute walk versus a jog - not as precise fuel accounting for medical diets.
These results are educational estimates only and are not a medical diagnosis. Talk to a qualified clinician for personal health decisions. People with cardiovascular disease or exercise restrictions should follow clinician guidance on activity.

Frequently asked questions
How are calories burned estimated?
From body weight, duration, and a typical intensity for the activity you select - not from a heart-rate lab test.
Why is this different from my watch?
Devices use different sensors and models. Treat both as approximations.
Which activities are supported?
Common options include walking, jogging, running, cycling, swimming, weight training, aerobics, hiking, yoga, and dancing.
Does intensity within an activity matter?
Yes. A hard run burns more than an easy jog even if both are labelled running - pick the closest match and interpret loosely.
Is this medical advice?
No - educational estimates only.
