The MET value of 7 for soccer is sourced from the Compendium of Physical Activities. The climate factor of 1.00 accounts for Concord's average temperature of 62°F. Research shows that exercising in non-neutral temperatures increases energy expenditure as the body works to maintain its core temperature.
Soccer (football) is the world's most popular sport, and for good reason: it provides an outstanding cardiovascular workout while developing agility, coordination, and teamwork. A typical soccer game involves running 5-7 miles with frequent sprints, direction changes, and explosive movements. The constant movement keeps heart rate elevated throughout the match. Playing soccer regularly improves cardiovascular health, builds lean leg muscle, and enhances balance and spatial awareness.
