How We Calculate Calories Burned for Indoor Wall Climbing in Ontario
Our calculator uses the standard MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) formula with a local climate adjustment for Ontario:
Calories = MET × Weight (kg) × Duration (hrs) × Climate Factor
= 7.5 × Weight (kg) × Duration (hrs) × 1.00
The MET value of 7.5 for indoor wall climbing is sourced from the Compendium of Physical Activities. The climate factor of 1.00 accounts for Ontario's average temperature of 61°F. Research shows that exercising in non-neutral temperatures increases energy expenditure as the body works to maintain its core temperature.
Indoor wall climbing (sport climbing or bouldering) involves ascending artificial climbing walls using holds of various shapes and sizes. Bouldering is done without ropes on shorter walls with crash pads, while sport climbing uses ropes on taller walls. Both forms develop extraordinary grip strength, upper body pulling power, and problem-solving skills as climbers plan their route up the wall. The combination of sustained isometric holds and dynamic reaching movements provides a unique full-body workout.
