Calculate calories burned while walking based on distance, pace, and weight.
Walking calories are calculated using MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) values. Here's the formula:
The walking formula:
Key insight: Walking is an excellent low-impact exercise. The faster you walk and the more you weigh, the more calories you burn.
Calories burned ≈ MET × Body weight (kg) × Duration (hours)The calculator applies the selected body, age, activity and goal assumptions to a standard planning equation. Actual needs vary with health status, climate, training, medication, food measurement and changes in body weight or activity.
Walking Calorie Calculator estimates a daily energy, nutrient or hydration target from the personal and activity information entered. Calculate calories burned while walking based on distance, pace, and weight. Treat the output as a planning starting point that may need adjustment.
It is an estimate generated from the values entered on this page and the calculation method shown in the formula and methodology sections.
The calculator validates the entered values, applies the protected formula shown on the page and then rounds only the displayed result where appropriate.
Use current source values, confirm units and time periods, include every requested cost or measurement, and avoid rounding inputs before the final calculation.
Different calculators may use different assumptions, time periods, rounding rules, reference standards or included costs. Compare the inputs and limitations before comparing answers.
No. It is an educational estimate and cannot account for every medical history, medication, measurement issue or individual biological factor.
Recalculate whenever a material input changes, such as a rate, price, balance, measurement, time period, fee, contribution or project dimension.
Use current measurements and a realistic activity level. Follow the estimate consistently, monitor results over time and adjust only after comparing actual progress, hunger, performance and professional guidance.
