Estimate calories burned with an Infinity Hoop or hula hoop from your body weight and workout minutes, at standard or vigorous intensity or your own MET.
Infinity Hoop Calories Burned Formula
Use this formula to calculate calories burned during an Infinity Hoop workout:
Calories Burned = Body Weight (lb) × Minutes × Activity Factor
Activity factor by pace:
- Standard pace (4.0 MET) = 0.0318
- Vigorous pace (5.8 MET) = 0.0460
The calculator uses the standard pace factor by default, so you only need your weight and workout time.

What Is Infinity Hoop?
