Factors Affecting Calorie Burn
Primary Factors
- • Body Weight: Heavier individuals burn more calories
- • Activity Intensity: Higher intensity = more calories
- • Duration: Longer activities burn more calories
- • Body Composition: More muscle = higher metabolism
Secondary Factors
- • Age: Metabolism slows with age
- • Gender: Men typically burn more calories
- • Fitness Level: Affects efficiency of movement
- • Environmental Conditions: Temperature, altitude
💡 Important Notes
- • These calculations are estimates based on average MET values
- • Individual calorie burn can vary by ±20% due to personal factors
- • Use a heart rate monitor for more accurate measurements
- • Consistency in exercise is more important than exact calorie counts
