How Steps to Calories Works

The calories you burn walking depends on several factors:

Body weight - Heavier people burn more calories
Walking speed - Faster pace = more calories
Distance traveled - More steps = more distance = more calories
Stride length - Taller people take longer strides

The Formula

This calculator uses a multi-step approach:

Distance = Steps \times Stride\,Length

Calories = Distance \times Weight \times Pace\,Factor

Stride length is estimated based on your height:

Average stride ≈ Height × 0.415

Pace Comparison

Pace	Speed	Calories/km/kg
Slow	3.2 km/h	0.57
Normal	4.8 km/h	0.63
Brisk	6.4 km/h	0.72
Running	9.6 km/h	1.03

A brisk walk burns about 15% more calories per kilometer than a slow walk, plus you cover more distance in the same time!
