About the Badminton Calories Burned Calculator
Recreational badminton mixes short sprints with rest, so the average effort is moderate.
Badminton has a MET value of 5.5, which means it uses about 5.5 times the energy you spend at rest. For a 70 kg person, 30 minutes burns about 202 kcal and a full hour about 404 kcal.
How the calories are estimated
Calories = MET × 3.5 × weight (kg) ÷ 200 × minutes
MET (metabolic equivalent of task) rates how hard an activity is compared with resting. The result is an estimate: your real burn depends on fitness, technique, terrain and conditions.

Things to keep in mind

- For weight change, how much you eat usually matters more than any single workout.
