Estimates only — not medical advice.

FAQ

How accurate are calories-burned estimates?

MET-based estimates are averages and can be off by 10–20% for an individual; fitness level, terrain and efficiency all matter.

Do fitness trackers measure calories better?

Wrist trackers estimate from heart rate and motion and also err, often overestimating. Use any number as a guide, not an exact budget.

What is a MET?

A metabolic equivalent: 1 MET is the energy used sitting quietly. An 8-MET activity burns about eight times as much.
