πŸ’‘ How Biking Calories Are Calculated

Calories burned = MET Γ— 3.5 Γ— body weight (kg) / 200 Γ— duration (min). MET values for cycling: leisure (<16 km/h) = 4.0, moderate (16-20) = 8.0, vigorous (20-25) = 10.0, racing (>25) = 12.0.

Cycling is excellent for calorie burning β€” it's low impact, scalable in intensity, and burns 400-1000+ calories per hour depending on effort. Stationary bikes use similar MET values.

70 kg person cycling moderate for 30 min: 8.0 Γ— 3.5 Γ— 70 / 200 Γ— 30 β‰ˆ 294 kcal.
