Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are these calculations?
These calculations provide estimates based on average energy expenditure rates. Actual energy burn can vary significantly based on individual factors including fitness level, intensity, technique, body composition, and metabolism.
Why does weight affect energy burn?
Heavier individuals burn more energy because their bodies require more effort to move. The calculation multiplies the activity rate (kJ per kg per hour) by body weight to account for this.
What is the difference between kJ and kcal?
Kilojoules (kJ) and kilocalories (kcal, often just called calories) are both units of energy. One kilocalorie equals approximately 4.184 kilojoules. In Australia, food labels typically show both units.
Does intensity matter?
Yes, intensity significantly affects energy expenditure. These values are based on moderate intensity. Higher intensity will burn more energy, while lower intensity will burn less.
