    Near as I can remember, it was 30 minutes to 2 hours. Sometimes twice.

    Thanks Everyone, for the mostly entertaining responses. Most recognized the post for what it was, a *** in cheek question. :smile:

    Discovered some great smart *kitten* minds! Job done.

    Wear a heart rate monitor next time you are between the sheets.

    Pretty much what most have said, you really don't burn as many calories as you think you do having sex ;)
    But I also will never count housework as exercise either!
    However I would gladly pay someone to wear a HRM doing the deed :drinker:

    I'm waiting for someone to make a joke about eating back exercise calories...

    Well....I read on a thread a few months ago that there is in fact a diary entry for...no delicate way to phrase this, but for semen...

    So of course I had to look up semen to see if its really in there and guess what came up instead?? Chocolate chips! :noway: I know a man is behind that somehow. Chocolate chips ...if only! Hehee

    It's on lose it, that is to say www.loseit.com, but the amount burned is rather discouragingly low, even though many options are available for reporting the energy expended.

    I read something in 70's that said a shot of semen is 60 or 70 calories and is high in protein.

    382 calories having energetic sex. Am I the only one?

    That would be the equivalent to running about 3.5 - 4 miles....is anyone really having that kind of vigorous sex...for that long?

    Uh, yeah. But it's something we gay boys do with ease. Straight people? Who knows. :laugh:

    Show of hands: if a friend logged one minute of sex on MFP, who would comment and make fun of said friend? That's why it's not in the database.
    this is exactly why I don't log it...

    Okay - I have viewed the activity database and am confused. I saw archery, bowling, mowing the lawn (riding mower), billards and other items that do not really entail what I would call physical effort or resulting sweat. So why then, is sex not listed. I, for once would love to see a post saying Mr/Mrs XYZ burned 382 calories having energetic sex. Am I the only one?

    Hey, if MFP can have "Human Flesh Jerky" in the food database, they should put something in the database for the "No Pants Dance"! Just sayin. :bigsmile:
