I have been playing team sports for over 10 years. I built this calculator to help athletes track their calorie burn during games and training sessions.

Volleyball Calorie Calculator

Volleyball burns between 200-600 calories per hour, with beach volleyball typically burning more due to sand resistance. Our calculator provides personalized estimates based on game type and intensity.

How the Calculator Works

The calculator uses MET values based on volleyball type and intensity:

Calories Burned = MET × Weight (kg) × Time (hours)

MET Values by Type

Volleyball Type MET Value
Beach Volleyball 8.0
Competitive Indoor 8.0
Indoor Recreational 6.0
Casual Play 4.0

Example Calculation

For a 70 kg person playing beach volleyball for 60 minutes:

1. MET Value: 8.0 (beach volleyball)

2. Calculation: 8.0 × 70 × 1.0 = 560 calories

Note: Beach volleyball burns more calories because playing on sand requires more effort for movement and jumping.
