Treadmill Incline Calories & MET Calculator
Calculate the increased calorie burn rate and MET level when modifying the treadmill incline grade.
Why Incline Treadmill Training is Highly Effective
Adding an incline to your treadmill routines shifts the muscle recruitment significantly to the hamstrings, glutes, and calves, while lowering the impact load on your knee joints. More importantly, it dramatically increases the **METs (Metabolic Equivalent of Task)**, resulting in high calorie expenditure even at walking speeds.

MET stands for Metabolic Equivalent of Task. 1 MET is the energy expended at quiet rest (roughly 1 kcal/kg/hour).
For joint longevity and lower impact, incline walking is superior and matches the cardiorespiratory intensity of flat jogging.
