Metabolic Equivalent Chart

This document provides a Metabolic Equivalent (MET) chart that lists recreational and occupational activities at different intensity levels measured in METs. Activities are grouped from 1.5-2 METs up to 17+ METs. Lower intensity activities like driving or playing cards are 1.5-2 METs while high intensity activities like competitive sports are 10+ METs. The chart provides estimates of energy expenditure in calories per minute and examples to illustrate each intensity level.
