Shopping Calories Burned Formula

The formula used to calculate the calories burned while shopping is:

Calories Burned = MET * Weight (kg) * Time (hrs)

• Weight is the body weight in kilograms.
• Time is the duration of the shopping activity in hours.

To calculate the calories burned while shopping, multiply the MET value of shopping by your body weight in kilograms and the duration of the activity in hours.

Example Problem:

Let’s say you weigh 150 pounds and you spent 90 minutes shopping. Here’s how you would calculate the calories burned:

First, convert your weight to kilograms: 150 pounds = 68.04 kg (150 * 0.453592).

Next, convert the time spent shopping to hours: 90 minutes = 1.5 hours (90 / 60).

Finally, use the formula: Calories Burned = 2.3 METs * 68.04 kg * 1.5 hours = 234.66 calories.
