You could very well be right. Depending on your weight, athleticism, and how much you move, it could take an hour to burn off a Kit-Kat bars worth of calories, that’s pretty normal
Someone more athletic can get more movement in during that hour so they could burn off that Kit-Kat faster
Where someone less athletic probably gets less motion in during that same hour so it would take them longer, the entire hour or more, to burn off that same Kit-Kat
But moving more an eating less grantees you will lose weight because the laws of physics will not allow you to spend more energy than you take in and still keep or produce more mass
There are even more moving parts as far as weight loss goes! Heavier people tend to burn more calories, for example, and people with higher muscle content also burn more calories. Its not just about how much you move.
Can’t forget, athletes performing a routine motion do it much more efficiently, expending less energy than a layperson to do the same thing. So a given body’s response to the same exercise can be expected to change over time, too (as they do it enough to get better at it, that is).

Exactly, there are just so many metrics involved, plus athletes could be any body type.
