How We Calculate Calories Burned for CrossFit in Baltimore
Our calculator uses the standard MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) formula with a local climate adjustment for Baltimore:
Calories = MET × Weight (kg) × Duration (hrs) × Climate Factor
= 12 × Weight (kg) × Duration (hrs) × 1.03
The MET value of 12 for crossfit is sourced from the Compendium of Physical Activities. The climate factor of 1.03 accounts for Baltimore's average temperature of 54°F. Research shows that exercising in non-neutral temperatures increases energy expenditure as the body works to maintain its core temperature.
CrossFit combines elements of weightlifting, gymnastics, and high-intensity cardio into constantly varied workouts of the day (WODs). The high-intensity functional movements performed at maximum effort make CrossFit one of the highest calorie-burning exercise programs. Workouts typically last 15-30 minutes but deliver extraordinary metabolic demand. CrossFit builds all-around fitness across strength, power, speed, coordination, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance simultaneously.
