The formula to calculate the number of calories burned while doing burpees is:
\[ C = 0.5 \cdot B \cdot BWF \]
Where:
Let's say you performed 30 burpees and your body weight factor is 1.2. The calories burned would be calculated as follows:
\[ C = 0.5 \cdot 30 \cdot 1.2 = 18 \text{ kcal} \]
So, you would burn approximately 18 kcal.
The body weight factor (BWF) accounts for the extra calories burned by larger individuals while performing exercises. It adjusts the calorie calculation to reflect the increased energy expenditure based on body weight.
