(for a 70 kg person at average walking speed of 5 km/h)
Explanation of calorie calculation for 8,700 steps
To calculate how many calories are burned in 8,700 steps, we use the average energy expenditure per step, which depends on a person's weight and walking speed.
Calculation Formula
1. Base Calculation: On average, a 70 kg person burns 0.04 calories per step at average walking speed (5 km/h).
8,700 × 0.04 = 348 calories
2. Weight Impact: The more you weigh, the more calories you burn. The calorie coefficient per step changes with weight:
50 kg: 0.030 kcal/step
60 kg: 0.035 kcal/step
70 kg: 0.040 kcal/step
80 kg: 0.045 kcal/step
90 kg: 0.050 kcal/step
100 kg: 0.055 kcal/step
3. Speed Impact: Walking speed also affects calorie burn:
Slow (3 km/h): × 0.9
Normal (5 km/h): × 1.0
Fast (6 km/h): × 1.15
Very Fast (
Summary
8,700 steps for a 70 kg person at average speed burn approximately 348 calories.
