How many calories does jogging burn?

Running can consume the body's calories and also reduce the body's calories. Many obese friends usually diet and exercise to lose weight, but often do not get good results. They will be exhausted and out of breath during the running process. Especially for overweight friends, they will affect their cardiopulmonary function due to shortness of breath. At this time, it is best for us to choose jogging. The following article will introduce how many calories jogging is most appropriate to consume.

Running for 60 minutes will burn 352 calories.

The following formula can be used to roughly calculate the calorie consumption during running:

(1) Known weight, time and speed

Running calories (kcal) = weight (kg) × exercise time (hours) × index K

Index K = 30 ÷ speed (minutes/400 meters)

For example, if a person weighs 60 kg and runs for 1 hour at a speed of 3 minutes/400 meters or 8 kilometers/hour, the calories he consumes during running = 60×1×30/3=600 kcal

This calculation includes part of the calories consumed due to the increase in basal metabolic rate after exercise, that is, part of the calories generated by the increase in body temperature after exercise.

(2) Known weight and distance

Running calories (kcal) = weight (kg) × distance (km) × 1.036

For example, a person weighing 60 kg runs 8 kilometers, then the calories consumed = 60 × 8 × 1.036 = 497.28 kcal (kilocalories)

(3) Known weight, speed and time

Running calories (kcal) = body weight (kg) × exercise time (minutes) × index K

8 kilometers per hour K=0.1355

12 kilometers per hour K = 0.1797

15 kilometers per hour K = 0.1875

A person weighing 60 kg runs for 1 hour at a speed of 8 km/h, then the calories consumed = 60×60×0.1355=487.8 kcal (kilocalories)

It should be pointed out that the above formulas are very rough because they ignore factors such as age, gender, physique and basal metabolic rate. They are just for reference.

The above article introduces how much calories are burned by jogging. It is only for reference. Please do not follow suit. Because each person's physical condition and body metabolism are different, you must exercise according to your personal physical constitution when jogging. Remember not to overdo it.
