Foods near your 165 kcal estimate.

2026-05-21, 82kg, Apple Watch Ultra HR 110 avg. My reference for yoga vinyasa is 330 kcal per hour. 27°C in an air-con room, 8:00pm on my yoga mat at home. Lots of stretching, sweated more than I expected.

MET 3.8 is the approximate equivalent of my 82kg rate, not a separate measurement. My 82kg reference is 330 kcal/hour. At 70kg, that's about 282. At 98kg, about 394. The formula (minutes × MET × 3.5 × kg) / 200 is reference only. USDA FoodData is used for food cost, not exercise burn.

What could 30 min cover? About 165 kcal, close to Grilled Chicken Breast (165 kcal). I'd treat that as a comparison, not a reason to earn a meal.
