    Well I HRM tracked it yesterday and for 50 minutes I only burned 200ish calories , so in the future I probably wont track it unless it's a marathon.

    Were you on top the whole time or joint effort? I think mine it was all me pretty much, I'm sure she said you can wear the HRM if you properly go for it. I don't need much more of an invitation ;)

    I don't track it.

    It's nobody's business but my own.

    Bonus calories burned.

    Nope. Its nobodys business how much I get it in. I've tracked to see how many I burned but will never log. FREAKS! LOL

    I have always been curious of the same thing. I am wondering if the mood would be ruined if I wore my Heart Rate monitor with the chest stap during "relations" ......lol
    it would be interesting to see how many calories are burned!! :love:

    if your hubby is anything like mine he'd see it as both a fun experiment and a challenge to get that number as high as possible!! :blushing:

    me thinks I have found a reason to buy a heart rate monitor!!

    I suggest you get out there and find yourself a workout buddy!
  • I just consider it a "normal daily activity" even if it isn't that daily. If it's particularly calorie-burning, I just think of it as a bonus :)

    I don't count anything that I was doing regularly before MFP as exercise!

    Great point, but what if I wasn't doing it before MFP, but because of MFP I begin doing it again?

    I figure "horse riding" is a good way to log it :)

    bahahaha!!!!! ok I'm officially going to start logging it as horse riding when I'm on top just for giggles ;)

    I DO track mine. At first i created it as "sexy time" then realised it showed in my timeline and changed it to walking lol.

    20 minutes of sex for someone my height / weight burns about 93 kcal. i aim for between 1-3 times per day, its a fun way to bump up your calorie allowance (pardon the pun) and keeps my fella happy :)

    I was pretty much doing everything and as vigorously as possible as I was trying to see the maximum amount of calories I could burn.Wish it burnt more calories though:laugh:

    Just figured that would be inappropriate for logging on a site like this??

    I haven't ever logged it, maybe if I was having it multiple times a day "sigh" a girl can wish!

    No. Unless the activity is vigorous and extended it wouldn't matter anyway. The benefit lies in areas other than caloric burn. :laugh:

    Does shaking hands with Mr Happy count as sex?

    If it lasts more than 15 minutes and I'm on top. ;D

    EDIT: I do have a little tact, I log it as general aerobics.


    :laugh: it lasts longer than 15??...you dont have kids do you?:laugh:

    If she JUST NOW decided to take up this most enjoyable activity, then sure, have at it. But I would suggest that she be on top at all times, feet planted, not on her knees, so that she really works those glutes. :flowerforyou:
