    Also worthy to note....Exercise is something you do BEYOND your normal scope of activity.

    My daily workout is my 'normal scope of activity' now.

    Probably not as many as you think.

    Honestly, I wouldn't even think about it. Calories should be the last thing on your mind when you're having sex.

    If you must, just think of it as bonus calories ;)

    Perhaps read a few chapters of Fifty Shades of Grey first? :)
    I wore my HR monitor one time and believe you me it is not worth logging. I probably burn more c alories emptying the dishwasher. HR didn't go over 80.

    Oh most definitely not during.

    When I collapse on the bed breathing hard and my heart is pounding at my chest is when the thought pops in my head.

    If so reducing 500 kcal every week won't be any problem at all :love: :love: :love:
    Sure honey. Tell yourself that you're already doing enough exercise to lose weight. How is that working for you so far?

    (And by the way, burning 500 calories a week equals losing 1/7 of a pound per week.)

    LOL I was curious about that too but not sure I would actually log it everytime. That would be like broadcasting my whole sex life

    there was a post the other day which said 67 calories for every 10mins. You do the maths! :wink:

    I say we round it up to 69. :tongue:

    wore my heart rate monitor once haha. Its not enough to count as an exercise at all. maybe if your the only one doing the work and you are doing it for hours! But on average if it was like 15 mins you don't burn as much as you would walking. Like 40 calories for my height and weight.

    this might help I also read that giving hand jobs burns tones of calories per half hour.

    so....the shake weight does burn a lot of calories....:laugh:

    if you're having sex for the calorie burn you're doing it wrong

    And if you only burn 100 cals you're really doing it wrong

    Actually, it burns around 200 calories for an hour.

    And, why not think about burning calories when sexing it up? If you have a boyfriend/girlfriend, add sex to your weekly work out routine. I'm sure they will love to be used as if they are a yoga mat :3

    I have. Still stays way below what my HR gets to with exercise. No way it is going to 170 while having sex. LOL
