This entirely depends on the pace at which you are walking, and what condition your body is in. Someone who is very fit, and very trim, will not burn 72 calories as quickly as someone who is not very fit or trim when walking at the same speed.Lets say you were to walk at 3mph, which is about an average walking pace for many people. Based on your average weight, and walking at a speed of 3 miles an hour, you will burn calories at the following rate:130 to 140 pounds - 3.5 calories burned per minute145 to 155 pounds - 4.0 calories burned per minute160 to 170 pounds - 4.5 calories burned per minute175 to185 pounds - 5.0 calories burned per minute190 to 200 pounds - 5.5 calories burned per minuteSo if you were to weigh 150lbs, it would take 18 minutes of walking. 18 minutes multiplied by 4 calories a minute equals 72 calories burned.
