How calories burned are estimated
Each activity has a MET value (metabolic equivalent of task) from the Compendium of Physical Activities: 1 MET is the energy used sitting still, running at 10 km/h is about 9.8 METs. Calories burned are MET × 3.5 × body weight in kg ÷ 200 × minutes.
Intensity makes a big difference, so an easy bike ride burns far less than the same time racing. Fitness trackers use similar estimates; neither is as precise as lab measurements.
