Not to be perverted or anything, but I've read that being intimate with your partner burns a lot of calories. How would you enter that into your exercise log?

    I don't count it towards my exercise. Those are bonus calories in my book :wink:

    Apparently it doesn't burn nearly as much as you think it would unless you are VERY energetic and get a good session in ;)

    All I know is that after 15 minutes my legs are burning more than they do after an hour long bike ride, so we're doing something right.
