This handout lists the intensity - the MET level - of various physical activities. What level is right for you? Light activities (< 3 METs) are good for elderly persons and those who may have physical limitations, or someone recovering from an illness who needs to gradually increase their activity level. A good example is slow walking or light gardening. Moderate activities (3-6 METs) are best for most people wanting a moderate exercise program. A good example is brisk walking 3-4 mph. ?ese activities are safe for most people and do not usually require medical clearance before starting to exercise. If you have a serious health problem, such as diabetes or a heart condition, check with your doctor. Vigorous activities (> 6 METs) require a higher energy output and are best for persons who already have a high fitness level and are in good health. Examples of vigorous activities are jogging and competitive sports.

What is a MET?

MET stands for Metabolic EquivalenT

One MET is the amount of energy (calories)

your body uses each minute while resting quietly. On average, a man sitting quietly burns 70 calories per hour, and a woman sit- ting quietly burns about 60 calories per hour. ?e MET level is higher as the intensity of your activity increases. For example, 2.5

METs is the amount of energy used each

minute to walk leisurely, but that goes up to

5 METs when walking very briskly at 4 mph.

You are burning 5 times as many calories per

minute when walking briskly as when sitting quietly.

How many calories is that? You can calculate the number of calories you burn for any activity by using the following equation:

Exercise calories = (MET level of activity x 3.5 x Weight (kg) x minutes of activity) / 200 MET

Levels

*Calories burned = up to 215/hour *Calories burned = 215-430/hour *Calories burned = 430+/hour
