Intimacy as exercise

Sidesteel, this was one of your finer moments, love.

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.

Speak for yourself, I like doing all the work :smokin:

If you are not doing it enough for it to just count as "daily activity", then you aren't doing it right and calories burned are the least of your troubles............

Hey baby, how would you like to burn 13 calories with me?

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.

so how YOU doing...

*wink*

Hahaha..Sorry couldn't resist >,<

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.

Ya know what I figure?

Add in some whipped cream and chocolate sauce, or wine and strawberries, or liquor shots, or...

in the end... the calories burned are negated by the calories consumed so you don't need to log either, and you've managed to create a helluva memory to boot...

oh... and your buddies on your friends list don't NEED to know you've been doing the funky monkey (even if some may really WANT to know)

You should only be posting exercise calories if it doesn't fit into your regular reported lifestyle... Seeing to its regularity in my lifestyle it is not something that I post. 13 calories... Do you even get out of pocket?

One would hope you were having sex before you found MFP ( ) so unless you've now started doing pull ups on the chandelier while you go for a ride :laugh: chances are that what you burn during sex is a moot point.

However, there are many wonderful positions which you can incorporate which will do wonders for your hips, thighs and *kitten* ... for instance, have him sit in a low chair next time ...

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.....

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:
