Aquafit Calories Burned Calculator

The formula to estimate the calories burned during an Aquafit session is:

\[ \text{Calories Burned} = \frac{\text{Weight in pounds} \times \text{MET value} \times \text{Duration in minutes}}{60} \]

Where:

Aquafit: Also known as water aerobics, it is a form of exercise performed in a swimming pool. It utilizes the resistance of water to engage multiple muscle groups while minimizing the impact on joints. Aquafit is suitable for all fitness levels and is particularly beneficial for those with joint issues or who are recovering from injuries.

Let's say the weight is 150 pounds and the duration is 45 minutes. Using the formula:

\[ \text{Calories Burned} = \frac{150 \times 7.5 \times 45}{60} \]

We get:

\[ \text{Calories Burned} = 843.75 \, \text{kcal} \]

So, the calories burned during the Aquafit session is 843.75 kcal.
