Answer
I have not been able to locate such a graph. However there are ways to calculate your caloric expenditure. In the ACSM Principles of Exercise Testing and Prescription you will find the necessary equations. If you are unable to locate the information please let me know and I will provide you with the calculations.


In good health,
