Do you log your *ahem* activities?

Just curious....do you log your sex as exercise? Reality is you're active (one would hope!) and burning calories...so shouldn't it count as a form of exercise?

I don't count it because it is not something that I have started recently. So to me, that means that I have already accounted it into my Calories goals when selecting my activity level. I only count things that I am doing solely for the purpose of excersize.0

I actually tried to my first week using MFP but my search came up empty.0

Yeah. Keep your heart rate monitor on throughout to help get an accurate reading of how many calories you're burning.0

HAHAHA!! Didn't think about that yet....but that's funny!0 -
It's my understanding that sex does not give much of a cardio workout ... since a cardio workout technically requires raising and maintaining your heartbeat/pulse for at least 20 minutes.
I guess it would depend on the type, and the energy level, and length of the activity?0 -
Uh no. I log only real exercise. I view logging sex as a means to cheat on your calorie allowance and exercise. Get out and do real exercise, even if it's 10 mins of walking, you'll be in a better mindset and path to being truly committed to weight loss and fitness.0

I actually asked this question a couple weeks ago. The general consensus is that if it's a normal part of your life, daily, weekly, whatever, then NO. If it's something that doesn't happen often and you get a really good workout..lol...then yes. Some people called it rowing, some wrestling and one said "HIIT - Right Arm" I nearly pissed myself!
Some ppl are just aholes though and said why would you even think of logging it and a bunch of other stupid things.
To each their own.0 -

:blushing: LOL!! I actually looked to see if I could, but as you know there is no such thing. I see that others are putting it under a different name. Maybe I will do that too!0
-
I can see it now.Yeah. Keep your heart rate monitor on throughout to help get an accurate reading of how many calories you're burning.
"Wait, wait, stop! I forgot to put something important on!"
"You're right, I guess we should use a condom."
"Screw the condom, where's my heart rate monitor?!"0 -
I tried searching it too!!! LOL0

This will actually tell you what you burn

You can then add it as a new exercise on MFP if you're that bold!0
