This tool will help you estimate the number of calories you burn while cycling on the road.
How to use the calculator:
Enter your weight in kilograms, the distance you plan to cycle in kilometers, your average speed in km/h, the duration of your cycling session in minutes, the incline percentage (positive for uphill, negative for downhill), and the wind speed in km/h (positive for headwind, negative for tailwind). Press the “Calculate” button to see the estimated calories burned.
How the calculator works:
Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) is used to estimate the energy cost of physical activities. The calculator uses base MET values for cycling with adjustments for speed, incline, and wind conditions. The formula used is:
Calories Burned = ((MET * 3.5 * weight) / 200) * duration
Limitations:
This calculator provides an estimate and may not be 100% accurate for all individuals. Factors like terrain type, exact wind resistance, and individual metabolic rate are not accounted for. Always consult with a health professional for personalized information.
