Jonas
I'm a software developer and year long triathlete. I spent a lot of time on treadmills and wanted to know how many calories I burn. Most calculators don't tell you how they calculate the calories burned, so I made this simple calculator that uses your weight, distance and duration to calculate the calories burned.
How the Treadmill Calorie Calculator Works
The Treadmill Calorie Calculator estimates the number of calories burned during a treadmill workout based on key factors. Here's an explanation of how it works:
The Formula for Calorie Burn
The calculator uses the Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) method to estimate calorie burn:
Calories Burned = MET * Weight (kg) * Time (hours) * 1.05
Where:
MET = Metabolic Equivalent of Task (varies based on speed and incline)
1.05 = A factor for increased accuracy
Input Parameters
-
1
Weight
Your body weight in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lbs).
-
2
Speed
The speed of the treadmill in kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mph).
-
3
Incline
The incline of the treadmill as a percentage (%).
-
4
Time
The duration of your workout in hours, minutes, and seconds (HH:MM:SS).
Calculation Process
-
1
Convert Units
If necessary, convert weight to kg and speed to km/h.
-
2
Calculate MET
Determine the MET value based on speed and incline.
-
3
Apply Formula
Use the calorie burn formula with the calculated MET and input values.
-
4
Calculate Total and Hourly Burn
Determine total calories burned and calories burned per hour.
MET Calculation
The MET value is calculated using a custom function that takes into account both speed and incline:
Base MET = 2.0 + (speed - 3) * 0.8
If speed > 7 km/h: Base MET += (speed - 7) * 0.5
Incline Adjustment = incline * 0.2
Final MET = max(Base MET + Incline Adjustment, 2.0)
If speed > 7 km/h: Base MET += (speed - 7) * 0.5
Incline Adjustment = incline * 0.2
Final MET = max(Base MET + Incline Adjustment, 2.0)
This function provides a smooth transition between walking and running speeds and accounts for the increased effort due to incline.
Output
The calculator provides two main outputs:
-
1
Total Calories Burned
The estimated total number of calories burned during the workout.
-
2
Calories Burned per Hour
The estimated rate of calorie burn if the workout were to continue for an hour.
Important Notes
-
1
Estimate Only
This calculation provides an estimate and may not be exact for all individuals.
-
2
Individual Variations
Actual calorie burn can vary based on factors like fitness level, age, and body composition.
-
3
Consult Professionals
For personalized fitness advice, consult with a healthcare provider or certified fitness professional.
When to Use the Treadmill Calorie Calculator
-
1
Lose Weight
If you want to know how many calories you burned while walking or running on a treadmill to support your weight loss journey.
-
2
Track Treadmill Session
If you want to know how many calories you burned while walking or running on a treadmill to track your progress.
-
3
Don't have a Heart Rate Monitor
If you don't have a heart rate monitor, you can use this calculator to estimate your calorie burn without knowing your exact heart rate.
Use this calculator as a helpful tool to estimate calorie burn during treadmill workouts, but remember that it's an approximation and individual results may vary.
