    Probably to save some of us the embarrassment of NOT being able to log it LMAO

    I have seen this discussed before, I know some people have added it as an exercise with a disguised name!

    I googled it before.. there is just too many positions.. plus half the time woman just lay there.. you'll have to wear your HRM and let us know how many you burn! lol

    Well I guess that would be preferable to asking him to stop whilst you check your pulse rate to see if it's increasing! :laugh:

    Well they list all the different strokes for swimming and what sort of effort you are making. Oh this thread is making me giggle, thanks to the OP for starting it.

    On the other hand though I think admitting to how long to you were undertaking said horizontal workout for may be problematical, either it would involve a stop watch or a likely overestimation by the male of the species!

    In another thread, someone provided a web site that calculates how many calories you burn.
    Then you can log it under something else with equivalent calories burned so that all your friends dont know when and how long you are spending your "horizontal" time.
    I will sometimes log it as "cleaning" or "calisthenics- general"...
    I've seen others state they log it as "dancing"

    I have friends that log 'dancing' regularly. Perhaps they are having it a lot!
