Health and Fitness Calculators

Plan training and understand energy use with calculators built on published, widely used equations: the Mifflin-St Jeor equation for resting metabolism and the ACSM walking equation for walking energy cost. Each page explains the equation, what it assumes and how accurate it is likely to be.

These are population-level estimates for general information. They are not medical advice; talk to a qualified professional about your individual health needs.

Predictive equations are derived from groups of people and carry real error for any individual, commonly ±10% or more. Use the results as a starting point and adjust based on how your body weight and energy actually respond over several weeks.

Every calculator is tested against independently worked answers. See our methodology.
