Hey guys,
I am completely serious about this i had made a workout called "knockin the boots" to log whenever i had sex when my boyfriend was here....now OBVIOUSLY if i wasn't doing the work i didnt count it, and i did look into it and you do burn 5-6 cals a min....now when he comes back i'm debating if that will already be a part of my lifestyle and not log it, or if its a "great workout"... Not trying to give out TMI or anything, but I am not too shy to talk about this and it is a great workout
.....Any thoughts?

Only when its serious (s)exercise - hahahaha

The way I see it, sex is sometimes work! You're bending and flexing and it's practically yoga and strength and planking and cardio all in one! Log it and work it!0

Not really much exercise if you are just laying on your back with your legs up moaning (like a bump on a log):yawn:while the guy is really doing all the sexercising.

If sex counted as exercise, I'd be built like a supermodel.
I don't count it, and I never would. Not because I'm shy, just because I don't see it as a work out. I'd hate to be mid-romp and think "Hmmm, I wonder if I'm doing enough work to log this? Maybe I should put a bit more bounce into it to get the burn up?"
Yeah.... Nah.0 -
i see it this way.. your heart rate rises... you get breathless and you sweat.. its a workout Log it0

I see where you are coming from, but i wouldn't log it every single time, only if it was long, i'm breathless, and my body hurt (GOOD) from it! lolIf sex counted as exercise, I'd be built like a supermodel.

Ehh... I wouldn't log it.0

Might be a good reason to get a bodymedia armband monitor to see how many calories it says.:laugh:0

OMG THANK YOU!!!! EXACTLY!!!!! I love this article!!!! i am soooo keeping this!!!0 -
I wouldn't log it unless you are totally sweaty and exerting a lot of energy for like an hour or more every day lol.
I'd just think of it like a nice bonus 0 -

its not strange and akward!!! lol, i have a DVR on my tv in my bedroom, i can see the time ya know! haha jeez0 -
Are you doing it for the pleasure or calories? "Ohh baby come on, gotta burn 50 more calories! Let's go baby, come on baby..."0
-
that's pretty much what i do, if it is over a half hour, i'm sweaty, and doing the work THEN i log it!

I think I've now heard the most extreme effort to gain exercise calories! There must be some prize I missed that everyone gets for finding things to log.0

no for pleasure, but on occasion we all have to take one for the team!!!Are you doing it for the pleasure or calories? "Ohh baby come on, gotta burn 50 more calories! Let's go baby, come on baby..."0

Then its not accurate if you are not counting the times that you are not actually doing something and the times you are. So then logging the times and the calories burned would be grossly inaccurate. :ohwell: Also I just cannot see how this could make or break ones diet.... srlsy0 -
Are you serious? It would be part of everyday activities. If you are an acrobat and swinging from the rafters then perhaps.0
-
Depending on the sex I log it as high impact aerobics, low impact aerobics, wrestling, or yoga
0 -
it is not an extreme effort to gain exercise calories, i haven't even seen my boyfriend in 4 months, so yes i do work out thank you very much! it is just a fun bonus to add, and i havent added it in a long time so i am just getting opinions, and its obvious what your is! :laugh:I think I've now heard the most extreme effort to gain exercise calories!

yes i am serious....i have not had sex with my boyfriend in 4 months because he is over seas, soooooo i am curious to see opinions whether or not i should log it when he gets back or notAre you serious?

lets just say i had sex for 2 hours, when i did log it, i would put down half or 1/3 of the time i actually was doing.....and once again thats only if it is strenuous. its all good though i get where your coming from, which is why i posted this to get multiple opions! 0 -
OMG THANK YOU!!!! EXACTLY!!!!! I love this article!!!! i am soooo keeping this!!!
You got it, just logged my "sexercise" for the day. New relationship + first time in bed together = 3 hour marathon haha0 -
