Question: how to calculate calories burned using mets?
Answer: The formula to use is: METs x 3.5 x (your body weight in kilograms) / 200 = calories burned per minute. For example, say you weigh 160 pounds (approximately 73 kg) and you play singles tennis, which has a MET value of 8. The formula would work as follows: 8 x 3.5 x 73 / 200 = 10.2 calories per minute.
