    Strap on a heart monitor during your session, see how many calories you've burned and create a new exercise in the database! :drinker:

    if i did that, i would GAIN. lol

    What if I strap my HRM on and the damn thing starts beeping in the middle because I am not at my optimum heart rate level, I think my poor hubby would die :tongue:

    Not a wise idea to have an electronic device telling you to put more effort in.

    LOL!! I almost strapped mine on once, I told my BF i wanted to and he looked at me like I was nuts. HAHA.

    Okay, sounds like you all have created a new fetish. I guess it's just a matter of time before some girl is going to ask me to wear a hrm and issue a challenge. :glasses:

    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:


    I've been tossing around this idea for a LONG time :D

    Totally depends on how much effort you put in etc but I like to think of it as cardio and strength training ;) just log it under 'aerobics, general' for a rough idea. Or yoga ....lot of similar movements....

    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.

    You're right, no minutes isn't worth calling it sex either.

    I did it with an HRM, but not going to tell you what I burned! But I know somebody who did burn about 96 and she was going solo!

    I have always been curious about that, but something about wearing my HRM seems so not sexy! Lol

    You forgot about the 10 minutes of crying, that has to be worth a few calories no? ; )

    Put a HRM on and see how many it burns. Then you can enter it yourself as a new exercise, or "aerobics" if you don't want to show all your MFPals your business.

    I personally wouldn't log it though, it's (hopefully) a regular activity so should just come under your daily activity. If you rarely have it though, or are unusually vigorous one time, I say why not? as long as your wife doesn't get turned off by the HRM thing.
