Let's Talk About Sex, Ba-by

FatDancer

My hubby actually asked me where my heart monitor was once when we started to...well, you get the idea. Of course, since we have two kids and it's been a crazy summer, when the mood strikes and opportunity comes along all at the same moment for both individuals, i'm too scared to say "Hey, wait a minute, let me get my HRM". But it's definitely not out of the question on this end. Let you know what I find out..Excuse me, I have to go ... um... exercise.

Standing by for your HRM report!

So... :blushing:

I showed off myfitnesspal to my husband this evening because I'm so excited to be using it because it's such a fantastic tool. (I just joined yesterday.) We were talking about how many calories I had left to consume today and/or how many would be burned off after our walk (I was showing him how you could search for an activity and add it to your exercise log. )

He asked me how many calories we burn during sex. I know it's gotta be more than just a few -- I've actually read studies about it. But... well, it's not one of the built-in exercise options ... nothing came up when I searched for "sex." Do you consider sex as a calorie burner for your log?

Am I silly for asking this? What do you think about sex as far as calorie burning potential and/or adding it to your exercise log? My husband jokingly insisted on helping me burn as many calories as possible to help reach my weight loss goals if this were the case haha

I did a little google search to try and find some answers (to share and get feedback), and here's what I've found:

*Vigorous Sex, based on a person weighing 140 pounds. ”...this activity burns approximately 102 calories per hour…” (source: thedailyplate.com)

*Between 68 and 102 calories, depending on if you just lay there or do the hard work (source: calorie-count.com)

*It has been estimated that having sex for a half hour burns approximately 150 to 200 calories and sometimes maybe as high as 350 calories if you are really active in bed. The calories burned during sex is roughly the equivalent of fast walking, jogging, or weight lifting for around thirty minutes. (source: http://www.disabled-world.com/artman/publish/calories-sex.shtml)

*A 130 lb person would burn approximately 124 calories during sexual intercourse. (source:

Thoughts? Perhaps this has come up before? What do you think?

(Laugh snort cough choke) My husband and I, well, I wore my heart rate monitor!!! I burn around 160 kc per hour if we do this for an hour. I burn waaaay more on the elliptical! Sigh. I'm still going for that extra few calories every few times I can. :laugh:

Anyone who dares to imagine me with just my hrm is going to get a sock on the arm!!

:laugh: :laugh: What a visual, Might have to try it . Hubby and I both have HRM!

I used to use fitday.com and it was in their exercise choices. I know my other half and I burn quite a few. :blushing: :laugh:

Ezzie I can relate, lol! I now think her HRM is a great piece of lingerie. And did someone mention Yoda Sex?!

* "Hmmmm...Stroke my green p***s, you will"
* "Bend over and show me your dark side"
* "F**k you with great force, I will."
* "Sleep in the wet spot, I wont"
* "The size of it matters not!"
* "Feel the force, you will!"

Hi everyone I'm also new to the myfitnesspal. So I it should be counted as exercise because like some of us know it is a work out.:happy:

My joining this site is making my hubby sooooooo happy.

More calories burned, anything for the cause!:smokin:

More Yoda Sex; Entered sperm into gene pool have I, hmmmmmm :noway:

OK folks..since you asked

Couldn't believe the low (in my estimate..) number of cal for the horizontal mamba..(25 min=129 cal:ohwell: ). Fixing dinner burnes more cal per hr...just didn't seem fair.

Then figured my own scientific theory:
It's the HORIZONTAL mamba, just lying down lowers the heart rate significantly, my pulse goes right to the 70's when I'm down, runs in th low 80's when I'm vertical..just moving slowly. Therefore, slow dancing, would probably burn more calories. :huh: ( will have to do some scientific study...).

Will also have to figure how to do the vertical mamba:bigsmile: , see if that boosts the calorie count! Anyone have a copy of Kama Sutra for Dummies???
