How We Calculate Calories Burned for Lunges in Henderson
Our calculator uses the standard MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) formula with a local climate adjustment for Henderson:
Calories = MET × Weight (kg) × Duration (hrs) × Climate Factor
= 5 × Weight (kg) × Duration (hrs) × 1.00
The MET value of 5 for lunges is sourced from the Compendium of Physical Activities. The climate factor of 1.00 accounts for Henderson's average temperature of 55°F. Research shows that exercising in non-neutral temperatures increases energy expenditure as the body works to maintain its core temperature.
Lunges are a fundamental lower body exercise where you step forward, backward, or sideways and lower your hips until both knees are bent at approximately 90 degrees. This unilateral movement builds strength and balance while correcting muscle imbalances between legs. Walking lunges add a cardiovascular element and increase calorie burn beyond stationary variations. Lunges are essential for developing functional leg strength used in everyday activities like climbing stairs and bending down.
