First off, apologies in advance if this is the wrong forum (couldn't find the appropriate one)
I've been trying to calculate how much calories I'm burning (on estimate, within ~30ish calories tolerance) for some time. Many of the calculators on the internet have given me varying results. First consider my details:
Age: 20
Weight: 285 lb
Distance walked: 4 km ~ 2.5miles - Time: 40 mins
Speed (Calculated using distance and time): 6 km/h roughly 3.73 miles/h
Always sufficiently hydrated (I drink at least 2 liters of water a day, always carry a bottle with me when I'm walking)
On approx. ~1500 calories diet. Might be less but unsure.
I've gotten results from 250 calories, to 400 and one site even gave me 700 calories. Could someone with the 'know how' give me an estimate? I realize this is different from one person to another so a decent estimate would be great. Cheers :)
