As a fitness expert with a background in sports science, I can provide you with an estimate of the calories burned during a set of squats. The number of calories burned during any exercise depends on several factors including your body weight, the intensity of the exercise, and your personal metabolic rate.

Squats are a compound exercise that primarily targets the lower body, engaging muscles in your quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and calves. The calorie burn for squats can vary, but on average, a person weighing 150 pounds (68 kg) might burn approximately 77 calories during a 30-minute session of doing squats, which would equate to about 15-20 calories for a set of 50 squats, assuming the squats are done at a moderate pace.

However, this is a rough estimate and the actual calorie burn can be higher or lower depending on the individual's body weight and the intensity at which they perform the squats. For a more accurate assessment, one could use heart rate monitors or fitness trackers that measure calorie expenditure based on heart rate and other factors.

According to What's Cooking America, you can find out how many calories you burn in one minute doing squats by multiplying .096 by your weight in pounds. For example, someone who weights 150 lb. would determine that .096 x 150 = 14.4 calories per minute.read more >>
