Frequently Asked Questions
How are walking calories calculated?
We utilize standard Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) multipliers from the Ainsworth Compendium of Physical Activities: Casual Stroll (~3.2 km/h) = 2.8 METs; Moderate Pace (~4.5 km/h) = 3.5 METs; Brisk Walking (~5.6 km/h) = 4.3 METs; Power Walking (~6.4 km/h) = 5.0 METs. The formula is: Calories = MET × Weight (kg) × Duration (hours).
Does body weight change how many calories walking burns?
Yes. Energy expenditure is directly proportional to mass moved through gravity. A 90 kg individual expends approximately 50% more energy per kilometer walked than a 60 kg individual.
Why is brisk walking superior for adults 45+?
Brisk walking delivers robust Zone 2 cardiovascular adaptation, improves insulin sensitivity, and increases daily energy expenditure with near-zero impact stress on hip, knee, and ankle joints.
