How Many Calories Do You Burn Standing
To calculate how many calories you burn standing, we need to know the MET value for standing.
- The MET is 1.3 for Standing quietly, standing in a line
- The MET is 1.8 for Standing, fidgeting
and then use the following formula:
MET x Body Weight x 3.5 / 200 x time, where
Body weight unit = kg
Time unit = minutes
For example, if a person weighs 150 pounds (68.04 kg) and standing in line for 1 hour.
The calculation is:
1.3 (MET) x 68.04 kg x 3.5 / 200 x 60 minutes = 93 kcal.
Standing All Day Calories
Assume there are 8 hours standing (without fidgeting) all day.
It burns about 644 kcal to 892 kcal for an average person who weighs around 130 pounds (58.97 kg) to 180 pounds (81.65 kg).
The calculation is:
1.3 (MET) x 58.97 kg x 3.5 / 200 x 480 minutes = 644 kcal.
1.3 (MET) x 81.65 kg x 3.5 / 200 x 480 minutes = 892 kcal.
