What Changes Calorie Burn in Squash?

Singles usually burns more than doubles because each player covers more court. Using the factors above, singles burns about 64% more per minute than doubles.
Rally length matters. Longer rallies and shorter rest periods push calorie burn higher.
Movement quality matters. Fast footwork, repeated lunges, and hard changes of direction raise the total.
Body weight matters. At the same pace and duration, heavier players burn more calories.

Example Calculation

A 150-pound player who plays 45 minutes of standard squash burns:

Calories Burned = 150 × 45 × 0.0754 = 508.95 calories

Rounded, that is 509 calories.
