I'm being totally serious. It's obviously cardio, for some maybe strength training, but definitely cardio. Does anyone log their "relations"? And if you do, how do you log it? Make up your own exercise? Time, effort, reps, calories burned etc. I’m obviously not going to wear a HRM so how do you log it, IF you log it?

Totally serious! Don’t report me to the mod squad!

:tongue:

    Haha I actually typed it in the other night just to see if it was on there, but couldn't find it :p
    I guess I would look up online what a typical hour of intimacy logs as for calories and just "make up" the workout. I don't see why not!

    I wouldn't log it, because I consider it a normal daily activity. Is that TMI? :wink:

    But seriously, I only count intentional exercise. But you can definitely add an exercise and call it whatever you want to keep track of the calories. But if you're not going to wear a HRM (which I agree could be awkward), how will you estimate your calories burned?

    I created my own exercise for it. 60min = 167 calories. Something like that, read it in Men's Health.

    Take it as a bonus and move on with life. You don't burn nearly as much as you think you do. If you go on for hours and feel like you're starving when you're finished, have a snack.

    I nearly choked on my tea when I read this. I can just imagine what my hubby would say if I went to bed wearing my HRM. I think that would be crossing the line....

    Since I had "relations" while gaining weight, I didn't log it while losing.

    This pretty much breaks it down http://www.dailymuscle.com/2006/05/12/lets-talk-about-sex-and-calories/ It also explains why some of us in our early 20's were freakishly thin and why the pounds start packing on on the "honeymoon"is over in a relationship...lol
