The formula to calculate the calories burned during an arm workout is:
\[ \text{Calories Burned} = \left( \frac{\text{MET} \times 3.5 \times \text{Weight in kg}}{200} \right) \times \text{Duration in minutes} \]
Where:
MET stands for Metabolic Equivalent of Task, which is a physiological measure expressing the energy cost of physical activities. One MET is defined as the amount of oxygen consumed while sitting at rest and is equivalent to 3.5 ml of oxygen per kilogram of body weight per minute. The MET value of an activity can be used to estimate the amount of calories burned during that activity.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the calories burned:
\[ \text{Calories Burned} = \left( \frac{3.0 \times 3.5 \times 70}{200} \right) \times 30 = 110.25 \text{ kcal} \]
The calories burned during the arm workout is approximately 110.25 kcal.
