MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) is a physiological measure expressing the energy cost of physical activities. It is used to estimate the amount of oxygen consumed by an individual during exercise, relative to their resting metabolic rate.
The MET value for various sports and activities can vary significantly. For example, running at a moderate pace has a MET value of around 7, while swimming laps might have a MET value of about 8. The total MET minutes per week can help athletes understand their weekly energy expenditure and optimize their training regimen.
Activity MET = MET value of the activity
Duration (hours) = Time spent on the activity in hours
