Calculate calories burned while climbing stairs based on your weight, stairs height, and time taken
Learn how to use the Stair Calories Calculator calculator and its working principles
The calculator uses the formula:
Calories = (Weight × Stairs Height × 0.0175) × Time
This formula estimates the calories burned based on the physical work done while climbing stairs. The constant 0.0175 is an approximation of the metabolic equivalent (MET) for stair climbing activity.
If you weigh 70 kg, climb stairs with a height of 5 meters, and take 10 minutes to do so, the calculator will estimate that you burned approximately 61.25 calories.
Note: This is an approximation and actual calories burned may vary based on individual factors such as metabolism, age, and fitness level.
