Factors affecting calories burned
The number of calories that the body burns during regular daily activities or exercise is dependent on various factors, so it is not an exact science. The results of this calculator (and any other) are based on standardized data that references an "average" person, so it is only an estimate.
For more information on the number of calories a person should consume each day for weight maintenance, weight loss, or weight gain, refer to the Calorie calculator. Generally, the number of calories consumed, less calories burned through activities and basal metabolic rate (calories consumed - calories burned = BMR) will determine whether a person maintains, loses, or gains weight; theoretically, if the number is 0, the person will maintain their weight; if the number is negative, they will lose weight; if the number is positive, they will gain weight.
