The following formula is used to calculate the Bench Press Calories (BPC):
\[ BPC = \frac{WL}{150} \times 5 \times R \]
Where:
To calculate Bench Press Calories, divide the weight lifted by 150, multiply by 5, then multiply again by the number of repetitions.
The Bench Press Calories (BPC) calculation estimates the number of calories burned during a bench press exercise based on the total weight lifted and the number of repetitions performed.
Let's say you lifted 200 lbs and performed 10 repetitions. Using the formula:
\[ BPC = \frac{200}{150} \times 5 \times 10 = 6.67 \times 5 \times 10 = 333.33 \text{ calories} \]
So, you would burn approximately 333.33 calories.
