    No reason you can't, just make a new entry like any other work out. But not sure how many calories is in one minute. *evil grin*

    Can you imagine... wearing your HRM to get an accurate number! Now that would be funny!! :laugh:

    you could make it into a role playing game.
    you and the naughty fitness instructor

    I think this would be the only reason I would invest in a HRM.

    why is it I cant put down a sex session and get the calories burned number??? Are we really that uptight???

    It probably doesn't burn as many as you think and I would probably count those as just daily activity level type stuff, rather than exercise on top of the calories I am already burning by existing and moving around and stuff

    This thread.

    First it made me laugh.

    Then I chuckled at something someone else said.

    Then I never wanted to have sex again.

    I think to be fair, if you count sex in your activities, you have to claim any extra protein in your food list....

    what like a sausage? :devil:

    Hmmmm Calories burned during sexy time ....

    Foreplay = 0 (begging doesnt require calories)
    Actual Coitus = 10 (5 Cals / minute)

    Hardly seems worth the effort to log it.

    It all depends on the position; if you are holding her off the ground against the wall, I think you can record cardio and strength training.

    I completely agree with this. I, personally, only record exercises that are specifically done for health improvement and strength. Sex is something else, so I wouldn't even count that toward my calories burned.
