How Many Calories Have You Burnt Today?

Burning Calories: We usually come across the terms "calories" and "exercise" in the same sentence, and this is because the two of them are related. Your weight depends on the balance between the amount of calories you eat and the amount of exercise you do to burn off the excess calories. However, much of it depends on our goal, whether it is to gain weight, lose weight or maintain it. It is also interesting to know that every activity in our daily life requires a certain amount of calories to perform its tasks to keep us going.

Your calorie intake and calories burnt determine whether you are on the track to lose weight or to gain weight. Using our calorie chart, keep a check on how many calories you burn every day. Based on your health goals, consult our dietitian to understand how to balance your calorie intake through food and your calorie output through exercise and physical activity.

This chart gives you the amount of calories burnt in 30 minutes of the specific activity as per your weight.
