π‘ 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 294 kcal.
