    I would never wear a HRM while having sex, that'd just be weird and not worth the hassle, imo.

    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.

    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 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.......

    If there is swallowing involved, I believe you would have to net out the calories consumed with the calories burned.

    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 here ;)

    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?

    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.:wink:

    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?

    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.
