Intimacy as exercise

I've actually tested this quite thoroughly and I can tell you that I burn roughly 684 calories per hour doing you-know-what.
So per session that equals approximately 13 calories.
That quick, huh?:noway:0 -
i have found that i wear my heart monitor when i am intimate with my toilet.. i find the effort is usually the same..
:: crickets::
damn.. whomp whomp..0 -
My calories burned often cancel out during sessy time since my husband wears this mask as part of our ritual and we eat it afterwards. Makes things interesting.
I'll bet...0 -
Sidesteel, this was one of your finer moments, love.
Hey baby, how would you like to burn 13 calories with me?
You know you don't need to ask... :blushing:0 -

Have you ever worn a heart rate monitor during S E x to see how many calories you burn? I mean unless you are doin some super crazy freaky stuff, can someone really burn alot of calories doing this "exercise?" i looked it up on a website someone else posted on here, and it said based on my weight for a 20 min session id burn 100 calories. Realist? like i mean, unless u are doing some major squats, or moving ur hips at a max speed, or major push up positions etcc i just dont think id burn 100 cals doing sex. what do u think?
Mine came out to be the same as walking for 30 minutes. So I was thinking it ought to be higher since it seems like more of a workout than walking. But yeah, my hips are doing some serious movements, not to mention legs, arms.....0 -
And this is just my humble opinion, but I think if just one person is "doing all the work," then you're doing it wrong! :laugh:0

-
No.... and now I have too..... inquiring minds want to know!0

I would never wear a HRM while having sex, that'd just be weird and not worth the hassle, imo.0
-
I have worn a heart rate monitor before.
Was about 100 calories for 18 minutes. I dont think you can extrapolate that for "per hour" cuz there is no way in hell that intensity is going for an hour. Sorry ladies.
I also think it would be different for a guy then it would be a girl and would depend on positions utilized. I would say that most of the time the guy burns more.
Then she's doing it wrong.0 -
Now I have to test it and wear it this weekend :glasses:0

so since right now i am my own partner that means that i get to log twice the calories.... between my size and doubling the amount .... i think you have me beat.......0 -
Talking about this stuff can be dangerous with the SO0
-
If there is swallowing involved, I believe you would have to net out the calories consumed with the calories burned.0

LMAO! IKR! :P0 -
Do you know how much fake exercise would get logged?
"45 minutes of sex"
Yeah right, try 3.
Would totally throw off the calorie count for a bunch of guys on here0 -

Ohh definitely you can. Sex is a workout as any other ones. You using your whole body. After a really tense I am always so thirsty that I can drink like 1/5 liter of H2O and my thighs hurt too.0 -

Oh yea some good ol' protein synthesis.0

Well - of course, a HRT would not read calorie burn accurately because s ex is more akin to weight training so the reading would be unreliable.
I mean - all those hand balances, wheel postures and push-ups get your heart going but it isn't cardio as such is it?0 -
Geez, an orgy would shrink me in no time! Who's in?? Bring your olive oil! LOLOLOL

I have to say it. If you are doing a majority of the work - basically the girl is just laying there - then....I'm going to say there is a 90% chance she's really not into it...Had to put it out there.0 -
