While most people assume that calories are only burned through exercise, the truth is that the body never actually stops burning calories &#8211; not even while you\u2019re asleep.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=how_to_burn_2000_calories_a_day\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Treadmill-Women-Collage-1.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You burn calories in a number of ways. This can be through:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Resting metabolic rate (RMR)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermic effect of food (TEF)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physical and non-exercise physical activity (EAT\/NEAT)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your resting metabolic rate is the amount of energy you need (aka the number of calories you burn) to maintain basic bodily functions such as blinking, breathing, maintaining your heartbeat, circulating blood, and even yawning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One study published in 2007 claimed that laughing for 10 to 15 minutes a day could increase total energy expenditure by 2 to 10 calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/16652129\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). This specific metabolic rate is determined by many factors such as age, gender, muscle-to-fat ratio, and weight and is said to account for 60% to 75% of the total number of calories you burn every day (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4535334\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermic effect of food is the increase in metabolic rate following the ingestion of a meal. This is the energy the body uses to chew, digest, and absorb the nutrients received from the food. This accounts for approximately 10% of your daily calorie expenditure (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hsph.harvard.edu\/obesity-prevention-source\/energy-balance\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exercise such as working out and non-exercise physical activity such as walking to work, typing, performing yard work, undertaking agricultural tasks, and fidgeting counts for 15% to 30% of your total daily energy expenditure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All these activities together can be enough to help you burn up to 2,000 calories a day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lean and toned up body isn\u2019t just a far-fetched fantasy.

Not only do they work out for hours on end &#8211; something the average person cannot do without passing out &#8211; but their generous dietary needs allow them to do this and not burn everything out of their systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Articles that look at the eating habits of pro athletes and Olympic competitors show that some of them can eat up to 8,000 calories a day &#8211; something that allows them to fuel up for their intense games and activities (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/thesalt\/2012\/07\/24\/157317262\/how-many-calories-do-olympic-athletes-need-it-depends\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/sport\/olympics\/how-many-caorie-athletes-burn-olympics-b1896968.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">14<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).

However, the number of calories burned is dependent on several different factors. This means that while you may be leading the same life as someone else and performing the exact same activities, it is very likely that you\u2019re not burning the same amount of calories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how do you determine the average amount of calories that an individual can burn in a day? According to experts, the best way to calculate this average is by using the Harris-Benedict Formula or Harris-Benedict equation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This formula was first created in 1918 but has since undergone fine-tuning to perfect it. The Harris-Benedict equation requires you to multiply your basal metabolic rate (BMR) by your average daily activity level (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/16277825\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=how_to_burn_2000_calories_a_day\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Collage-Banner-28.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_calculate_your_BMR\"><\/span><b>To calculate your BMR<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For men: 66 + (6.2 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) \u2013 (6.76 x age)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For women: 655.1 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) \u2013 (4.7 x age)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_calculate_your_daily_activity_level\"><\/span><b>To calculate your daily activity level<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your activity level depends on a point system.

It can also be difficult to gauge how many squats you would need to do to achieve this as there isn&#8217;t really an answer to the issue of how many calories one squat burns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, determining how many calories can be burned by squats in a predetermined amount of time is slightly easier to calculate. But even then, there is no &#8216;one size fits all&#8217; answer to this as the exact number is determined by:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your body weight in kilograms<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The number of minutes you spend exercising<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The level of intensity of your squats workout session (metabolic equivalent value (MET)) &#8211; The higher your workout intensity\/MET, the more calories you will burn.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, how many calories can a 78 kg person doing a round of HIIT squats burn in 5 minutes?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 1: Start by calculating calories burned per minute<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">0.0175 x 8(MET) x 78 (Kgs) = 10.92 cals per minute<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 2: Multiply calories burned per minute by minutes spent exercising<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10.92 x 5 = 54.6 cals in 5 minutes<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 3: How much time will this person take to burn 2,000 calories in a day?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(2000 cals x 5 mins)\/54.6 cals = 183.15 minutes<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The above 78 kg person will need to perform approximately 3 hours of straight-up HIIT squats to burn 2,000 calories a day, a feat that is quite impossible for the average person, let alone a seasoned athlete.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=how_to_burn_2000_calories_a_day\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/imagephone-1920x1200-2.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Burn_2000_Calories_a_Day_at_Home\"><\/span><b>How to Burn 2,000 Calories a Day at Home<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the world switched to working from home and even hybrid work culture &#8211; and the fact that gyms can be expensive &#8211; home workouts have continued to gain popularity. It&#8217;s a relatively cheap and easy way to lose weight, maintain it, and even grow muscle for better health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what are some tricks on how to burn 2,000 calories a day?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Firstly, we would like to reiterate once more that burning 2,000 calories a day through exercise is not something the average person should try to do. Yes, working out can help you reach that 2,000 kcal mark, but it cannot be the only tool you use to accomplish this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, you can increase your calorie burn through exercise, but you can\u2019t increase it to a 2,000-calorie burn safely, so we recommend aiming for a 500 to 1,000-calorie deficit each day using a combination of exercise and good nutrition. Some recommended workouts that could help you achieve this goal are jumping rope, swimming, Zumba dance classes, aerobics (including water aerobics), cycling, and HIIT.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember to exercise at a high intensity or work out longer than usual. This is a surefire way to ensure that you burn a high number of calories during your workout session.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking for a way to <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=how_to_burn_2000_calories_a_day\">break the vicious cycle of weight loss <\/a> and tone up all the jiggly parts?

How much energy do you expend walking a mile?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VeryWellFit, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the calories burned walking a mile differs from person to person. Weight and walking speed play significant roles in this. The faster you walk, the more calories you burn and the heavier you are, the more calories you burn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the rule of thumb states that a 180-pound person burns approximately 100 cals per mile while a 120-pound person will burn only 65 cals walking the same distance. With this in mind, how can you decipher how to burn 2,000 calories a day by walking?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verywellfit<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> again shows that burning this much energy in a day by just walking can be quite impossible, even if you were to make an effort to walk up to<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/20000-steps-a-day-weight-loss-2\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">20,000 steps a day<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
