How much energy do we use on the average workday sitting around desks and walking between lessons?

Celestial Beast asked:


How much energy do we use each day if it is a very inactive day (no time for sport etc). I only walked between classes, worked at desks all day and now I’ve been doing homework at my computer for the past few minutes. How much energy, in Kilojoules, would I have used? This is for a school project. I need to work out my energy output in a day. Also if you have a good site for me that would be useful for these basic activities, that would be really helpful.

    you burn 1/3 of your Basal Metabolic Rate just by breathing and digesting.

    Your Basal Metabolic Rate is roughly 10 * your weight calories.
