Why do you burn loads of calories scuba diving?

Answer 1

Most people burn calories because of the body's attempt to maintain its temperature while Scuba diving. Rescue divers burn additional calories while doing more strenuous movement underwater. You can burn a great deal of calories if you had to swim against a strong current or in a medium current for a long time. Estimates show that an average person burns 600-1000 calories per hour while diving.
