MET 8 — population average; actual burn varies.

These calculators provide general fitness estimates only — not medical or nutritional advice. Talk with a qualified professional before starting a diet or training program, especially if you have health conditions.

Activity calorie estimates (MET method)

Different activities burn calories at different rates. Exercise scientists express this as MET — metabolic equivalent of task — where 1 MET is resting metabolism. Higher MET means more calories per minute at the same body weight.

This calculator includes activities Level Up members actually do: boxing, circuit/HIIT, running (~6 mph), moderate cycling and rowing, and jump rope. Pick the closest match to your session, enter weight and working minutes, and get an estimate.

Use these numbers to compare sessions or plan pre/post-workout nutrition — not to obsess over every calorie. Hybrid training at Level Up mixes modalities; a coach helps you balance burn, recovery, and strength progress.

Common questions

FAQ

MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) compares activity intensity to sitting quietly. Running at ~6 mph is about 9.8 MET; heavy bag boxing is about 6.0 MET. Higher MET = more calories per minute.
At equal duration, jump rope and hard running typically top the list here. Boxing stays competitive because intensity stays high with skill work — plus you are more likely to show up consistently.
If you already set activity level in our TDEE calculator, you may be double-counting if you also eat back every workout. Use activity burn to compare workouts or fuel hard days — not as a second daily budget.
Try group training or hybrid training at Level Up — strength plus boxing/cardio in one membership.
