Estimate calories for general SkiErg work or slow-to-moderate and fast double-poling, with an optional watts or split comparison.
How the Ski Erg Calorie Calculator Works
The primary result uses activity values for a general ski machine and technique-specific double-poling intensities. An optional monitor comparison converts watts or split to Concept2-style display calories.
Formula: gross kcal = MET x 3.5 x body weight in kg / 200 x minutes
What the Results Show
The result hierarchy includes gross and active calories, hourly rate, MET-minutes, duration, and optional monitor watts, split, distance, work, and display calories.
Why This Calculator Is Different
Technique-specific SkiErg intensities are kept separate from rowing-machine body-weight adjustment. The optional monitor result is clearly labeled as a comparison.
Assumptions and Limitations
Selected intensity must represent the overall session. Short intervals, technique changes, and monitor calibration can move actual energy use above or below the estimate.
