Enter your weight and the duration of your air walker exercise into the calculator to estimate the number of calories you have burned.
Air Walker Calories Burned Formula
The formula used to estimate the calories burned on an air walker is:
Calories Burned = (METs * 3.5 * weight in kg) / 200 * duration in minutes
Variables:
- METs is the Metabolic Equivalent of Task, which is a unit that estimates the amount of energy used by the body during physical activity, compared to resting. For the air walker, the MET value is approximately 3.5.
- Weight is the body weight of the person using the air walker in pounds (lbs).
- Duration is the time spent exercising on the air walker in minutes.
To calculate the calories burned, convert the weight from pounds to kilograms by dividing by 2.20462, then apply the formula using the MET value for the air walker.
What is an Air Walker?
An air walker is a type of low-impact exercise machine that simulates walking or running without causing excessive pressure to the joints. It helps improve cardiovascular fitness, burns calories, and can be used for weight loss or weight management.
