Exercise Calorie Calculator: How Many Calories Does Your Workout Burn?
Knowing how many calories you burn during exercise is essential for accurate calorie tracking. Here's a complete reference table — and a smarter way to log workouts with AI.
How Exercise Calorie Burn Is Calculated
Calorie burn during exercise is primarily determined by MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task), body weight, and duration. The formula: Calories = MET × weight (kg) × time (hours). A heavier person burns more calories doing the same workout for the same duration.
Exercise Calorie Reference Table (70 kg person)
| Exercise | 30 min | 45 min | 60 min |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brisk walking (6 km/h) | 175 kcal | 262 kcal | 350 kcal |
| Running (10 km/h) | 390 kcal | 585 kcal | 780 kcal |
| Cycling (moderate) | 280 kcal | 420 kcal | 560 kcal |
| Swimming (laps) | 300 kcal | 450 kcal | 600 kcal |
| Weight training | 180 kcal | 270 kcal | 360 kcal |
| HIIT | 350 kcal | 525 kcal | 700 kcal |
| Yoga | 100 kcal | 150 kcal | 200 kcal |
| Jump rope | 400 kcal | 600 kcal | 800 kcal |
*Values are estimates for a 70 kg person. Multiply/divide proportionally for different body weights.
Log Workouts in Natural Language with Yedimmi
Instead of searching for exercise types in a dropdown menu, just describe your workout to Yedimmi's AI: "I ran 5 km in 28 minutes, then did 20 minutes of weight training." The AI automatically calculates your calorie burn and updates your daily net calorie balance — all from a single sentence.
Why Net Calories Matter More Than Gross Burn
Your net calorie balance = food calories consumed − total calories burned. Yedimmi tracks both sides of the equation: food intake via AI photo recognition and exercise via natural language logging and automatic step sync. Your dashboard always shows your true calorie position for the day.
