Weight Loss and Calorie Burn Calculator
A person will loose 1.6 ounces or 45.4 grams and will burn 350.0 calories playing water polo for 30 minutes
How to calculate the burned calories or weight (mass) loss
The number of calories you burn depends on:
- the physical activity
- the person's body weight
- the time spent doing the activity
Multiply your body weight in kg by the MET (Metabolic equivalent) value by the time of activity, you'll get the approximate energy expent in Kcal according to the person's body weight. In this case, playing water polo at a MET value, burns Kcal/kg x body weight/h.
A 70 kg individual playing water polo for 30 minutes will burn the following:
(METs x 70 kg body weight) x (30 min/60 min) = 350.0 Kcal.
is the value in METs for playing water polo.
To transform the value in calories into pounds just divide the value in calories by 3500. So,
350.0/3500 = 0.1 pound = 1.6 ounces = 45.4 grams of mass. We can't say that it is fat because it could be also muscle.
