A steps to calories calculator estimates energy burned from walking based on step count and body weight. Heavier individuals burn more calories for the same number of steps due to the greater work required.

Formel

calories = steps × 0.05 (rough estimate); more precise: MET × weight_kg × hours
steps
Daily steps (steps) — Pedometer or app step count
cal
Calories burned (cal) — Approximate energy expenditure
weight
Body weight (kg) — Used for more precise MET calculation
