    The way I see it:

    -Were you having sex before you decided to lose weight? Answer is probably: Yes
    -Were you fat even if you were having sex ? Answer is probably: Yes

    Conclusion:

    It's not an effective workout. Now stop asking question on the boards and do an actual real workout.

    Thanks!

    What she said!!!

    (or you could measure push ups)

    Don't know how I'd feel about a chick wearing a HRM while doing the deed. I know it'd be a turn off, if when it was over she grabbed her phone to log the burn.

    Think of it as a video game and try to get a high score. The beautiful thing about that is she has to do more of the work to get the numbers up!

    Honey, if you're thinking about how to log your sex as a workout, you're doing it wrong.

    The way I see it -

    You create a caloric deficit to lose weight. You work out to focus on body re-composition.

    Now stop answering questions on the boards and do some reading up.

    Thanks!

    -Study #1 : ''...The study, Energy Expenditure During Sexual Activity In Young Healthy Couples, found that, on average, men burned 4.2 calories a minute during sex (...)l. Women burned 3.1 calories a minute during sex (...)...''

    -Study #2 : ''...According to the new study "Canadian and American Sex Therapists' Perceptions of Normal and Abnormal Ejaculatory Latencies: How Long Should Intercourse Last?" adequate coitus lasts anywhere from three to seven minutes...''

    -Quick mathematic 101: Men burn between 12.6 and 29.4 calories. Females burn between 9.3 and 21.7 calories.

    Yep, that's worth logging! ;)

    You should only log it if it's outside of your normal daily activities :flowerforyou:

    lol I just logged sex yesterday!

    P.S my husband has been going though lots of healthy issues, was a point I went almost 2 months without. So now he's getting his groovy back and we went for 40 minutes yesterday, so I freaking logged it!
    Also I don't log it unless its at least 20+ minutes.

    Theres an app for that! on iPhone there is one called Sex Counter:Tease FREE. you put the phone on the bed and it will count strokes and time and calories. Equivalents probably exist for BB and android.

    Maybe you could place on the kitchen counter/table, couch, or whatever surface of your choosing.

    Maybe. . in that case the accelerometer wouldn't be able to count thrusts. . It would have to do it by sound. . it would have to count "OH GOD'" and "Faster". . and "Deeper" . .. .wait. .did I say deeper? Not deeper. . I didn't mean deeper. .
  • I just think of it as breaking even, what with the whipped cream, chocolate, and other cals consumed during.:wink:

    Perfect.
  • This thread was kind of meant as a joke ;) I know you can add your own if you feel so inclined haha. I loooove the responses though!

    I read somewhere that it doesn't burn that many calories.... Not enough to count as exercise anyway.....

    heard the same. most people overestimate sex calorie burns.

    Intercourse is equivalent to walking 2 flights of stairs. That's what post heart attack folks are taught.
