Convert steps to calories burned with our easy to use step to calorie converter
The step-to-calorie converter is a useful tool for individuals looking to track their energy expenditure during walking or running activities. The number of calories burned depends on several factors including the individual's weight, the distance covered, and the intensity of the activity.
Research indicates that the average person burns approximately 0.04 to 0.06 calories per step, with this value varying based on factors such as stride length, body weight, and walking speed (Source: Wikipedia - Walking).
To improve accuracy, our converter allows users to input their weight and choose between different activity intensities. This information is then used to provide a more personalized estimate of calories burned.

| 5,000 | 200-300 calories |
