Swimming Calorie

1. Enter your "Swimming Style", "Swimming Time", and "Weight".
2. "Calories Burned", "Fat Burned", and "Swimming Distance" will be displayed.

Basic Calorie Calculation Formula (using METs)

Calories Burned (kcal) = METs × Weight (kg) × Exercise Time (h) × 1.05

• METs: Metabolic Equivalent of Task - indicates exercise intensity
• Weight: Your body weight in kg
• Exercise Time: Duration of exercise in hours
• 1.05: Calorie calculation coefficient (energy expenditure adjustment)

Standard METs Values for Swimming (International Standards)

Calculation Example (60kg person swimming freestyle moderate for 30 minutes)

1. Exercise Intensity (METs): 8.3 (Freestyle moderate)
2. Weight: 60kg
3. Time: 0.5 hours (30 minutes)

Calories Burned = 8.3 × 60 × 0.5 × 1.05 = Approximately 262kcal

Note: METs values are based on ACSM (American College of Sports Medicine) and Compendium of Physical Activities.
