what does mets mean?

[drover]

on our calendar page in the box where it tells what workout we did and calories burned, it says mets. does anyone know what that is for? i missed that part somewhere. i can't look at the tutorials on my computer , cuz i have dial-up, so they won't load. anyway, anyone got an answer?
thanks cathy

There are several threads about this -- some may be in the Workout Manager section of the boards (listed toward the bottom of the list of different forums). But here is a link that gives a quick explanation:
