Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Calculate calories burned during exercise from MET value, body weight, and duration for accurate energy balance tracking and weight management

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • MET value — The met value recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Body weight — The body weight recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Duration — The duration recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the met energy expenditure result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the MET value, body weight, duration for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate calories burned during exercise from MET value, body weight, and duration for accurate energy balance tracking and weight management. Use the met energy expenditure result to inform your calculation.
