    This is very valuable information!!! Burn baby, burn! Now I know what to do if I want to eat something that doesn't fit into my calorie limit...

    Nothing turns me on more than a chick with an HRM strapped to her. I'ma make that thing blow up from counting so fast! (/s)

    I don't know about the "sex - foreplay" and "sex - intercourse". I mean, it's always different; you can do it like HIIT or you can do it like cardio or you can do it like yoga. All very different . . . and that's not to mention 'giving' teh sexes versus 'receiving' teh sexes.

    Isn't that like logging cleaning... I mean it's something you oughtta be doing everyday.

    everyday . . . now that's what dreams are made of

    unless you are those lucky few who do it everyday...i envy those bishes.....lol

    My GF gets too sore to do it every day. :/ It's sad because normally we'd both be the "five times a day" kinda people.

    It's pretty accurate.

    It says 148 cals for 30 min.

    I wore my HRM during one time and it was about 175 cals for 30 min.
    I didn't log it though...

    My wife won't let me wear the HRM to get an accurate number. Oh, I would log it!!

    Women should be eating back their exercise calories during intimate time

    protein is key to a great diet.

    Mine included everything (foreplay/intercourse) in the whole 30 min I had it running.
    I guess you could say I was 'giving'. So yeah....I was a little bummed the cal burn wasn't a little higher.
    Like I said, I didn't log it. I'll just count that as a bonus.

    Form and practice will help stamina. John's exercise may also help.

    HRM just came today, guess I know how I'll be testing it out... Might need a series of tests to be sure my data is complete and accurate.

    I would recommend you check all the variables too! *ahem*
  • Because MFP is severely lacking in the available activities we can log as exercise, I found a site that lets you calculate how much you burn during all SORTS of things, based on your weight.

    Good to know!

    Thank you!

    Thats my thought. Honestly I have yet to log intimate time....just figure its a bonus when it happens - for me only once a month right now ~le sigh~
