Elliptical Calorie Burn Calculator

Formula

To calculate the calories burned during elliptical exercise:

\[ \text{Calories Burned} = \frac{(\text{MET} \times W \times T)}{200} \]

Where:

\(\text{Calories Burned}\) is the total number of calories burned
\(\text{MET}\) is the Metabolic Equivalent of Task
\(W\) is the weight of the person in kilograms
\(T\) is the duration of the exercise in minutes

What is Elliptical Calorie Burn?

Elliptical calorie burn refers to the number of calories a person burns while using an elliptical machine for exercise. The number of calories burned can vary based on factors such as the person's weight, the intensity of the workout (MET), and the duration of the exercise. An elliptical machine often provides an estimate of the number of calories burned during a workout, though this estimate can vary based on the machine's settings and the individual's workout intensity.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

MET = 7 (moderate exercise)
Weight = 70 kg
Duration = 30 minutes

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Calories Burned} = \frac{(7 \times 70 \times 30)}{200} = 49.50 \text{ kcal} \]

Total calories burned: 49.50 kcal.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

MET = 10 (high intensity exercise)
Weight = 80 kg
Duration = 45 minutes

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Calories Burned} = \frac{(10 \times 80 \times 45)}{200} = 180.00 \text{ kcal} \]

Total calories burned: 180.00 kcal.
