    When I first bought my HRM, DH wanted me to wear it during sex. I refused. What happens when my heart rate is less than he expected or desired? lol

    Hahaha! That is totally true...I wouldn't want that to be an issue!

    LOL starry! My boyfriend and I were LITERALLY just talking about this yesterday. It is lifestyle, but hell, if it's a hot session, I would log it in.

    On the other hand, I guess your friends don't want to see "So-and-so burned 600 calories doing 2 hours of "sex" lmao

    Yeah I might not want people to know that, although I'm not shy! Though you could always log it in as something else! Like the great suggestion of salsa dancing! lol...

    sex "should" be considered part of your normal routine, and there for not something that should really be logged because its not out of your normal.

    Its not on there because although you have to be 18 to join up the site is PG13...plus do you really want your pals seeing "starryheart83 burned 109 calories doing 25 minutes of "having sex"...and more to the point do they want to know everytime you do rumpy pumpy?? Oh and it really doesn't burn that much despite what some may think unless you're into coital gynastics

    Or "mfreeby burned 27 calories doing 7 minutes of having sex" LOLOL

    I'm basing this on my weight of 340
    Sexual Activity - vigorous
    231 calories in 60 min
    Sexual Activity - moderate
    200 calories in 60 min
    Sexual Activity - light
    154 calories in 60 min

    If you subtract your BMR even at vigorous for an hour we are talking about 146 in my case. That is per hour. I'm not even bothering to worry about those calories.

    If you weight 190
    Sexual Activity - vigorous
    119 calories in 60 min
    Take out a BMR of about 60 per hour and you are left with 59 calories. That assumes one hour of vigorous activity.


    I really think it would be like logging showering and cooking. It's already accounted for.

    Me neither! I'd be proud of my romps, I could see some people being like "Way to go!" and then you're like "Yep, I'm SO sore from my sweaty workout! ;) "

    A terrific site to go on to get calories burned for hundreds of activities is: caloriesperhour.com You enter your personal weight and how long and it calculates the calories for you. I usually will add an exercise here in the database if it isn't there already. Go to the 4th Tab where it says "Calories Burned Calculator". It is a handy site for me. Hope that helps!

    Sometimes I'll include this activity under another "exercise" that burns the same calories. Afterall, we do burn them suckers and!

    We could go so far as "soandso burned 95 calories using the pole routine, ceiling swing and handcuffs"... brings us right back to the "strangest things you could buy with condoms" thread?

    I actually asked this question a few weeks ago but never got a reply, I would be a bit discreet about posting my sexual activity so might start posting it under a different name. :P
