Who this is for

Adults aged 20–59 outside pregnancy; the source Adult Compendium covers ages 19–59.

How it works

2024 Adult Compendium MET values are retained with their original activity codes. Gross kcal = MET × weight(kg) × duration(hours). Net above-resting kcal = (MET−1) × kg × hours. This uses 1 MET = 1 kcal/kg/hour, not a different oxygen-equivalent approximation.

Keep in mind

METs are population averages; fitness, technique, terrain and equipment alter individual expenditure.
Net and gross figures differ; do not double-count exercise already included in TDEE.
