The steps to calories calculator helps you to estimate the number of calories you burn while walking. This can be valuable for calculating the number of steps needed to achieve weight management and fat-burning goals.

What are Calories?

“A particular unit of energy that corresponds to the energy consumed by your body for each meal or drink you intake are called calories”

The amount of calories you burn per step is affected by your age, weight, pace, and height. The people who are older have a low rate of metabolism so they burn fewer calories and vice versa. According to the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the steps that you should  take a day are as follows:

Activity level Steps per day
Basal Below 2,500
Limited 2,500–4,999
Low 5,000–7,499
Somewhat active 7,500–9,999
Active 10,000-12,499
Very active over 12,500

Calorie Burn Per Step:

The calories burn with each individual step taken and it provides insight into the total daily energy expenditure (TDEE).

About 0.04 calories can be burnt per step. According to a medical estimation, an average person weighing 70kg expends 0.04kcal as steps walked to calories burned ratio.
