Stair energy

The visitor types floors, a floor height and a body weight. The tool estimates the climb with a named stair MET. The result is that climb.

Enter the inputs. The page computes a result that did not exist as a static article.

This is a general-purpose tool, not medical, legal or financial advice. Figures are estimates from published food data or arithmetic. A qualified professional owns decisions that affect your health.

How to use it

Inputs are floors, height and weight. Computation applies the MET. Output is energy for the climb.

The tool runs in your browser. Nothing from the camera, microphone or sensors is uploaded. With JavaScript off, the worked example below is still computed on the server.

A worked example

Eight floors of sixteen steps at 0.17 kcal per step for a 70 kg body is about 22 kcal.

Putting the climb next to a whole day is what the TDEE calculator is for. The visitor already has the weight, so they can type it there too.

Keep the result in an account

TempoLife keeps food, movement and sleep in one private place, so this result can become part of a day instead of a one-off page.
