    HRM gives a whole new meaning to strap on! Inappropriate? Sorry! that was funny! Im totally getting an HRM and strapping it on! Maybe even my sweat bands too! hahaha

    BoomBoom - You crack me up!!!

    My ex-boyfriend actually did wear his HRM once...he was a competitive cyclist and didn't need to lose an once so I admit I thought it was a bit ODD. But should I ever be so lucky to partake in this aerobic activity again :wink: I just might strap it on :wink:

    No reason you can't, just make a new entry like any other work out. But not sure how many calories is in one minute. *evil grin*

    I nearly fell out of my chair laughing! Not good since I am at work and SUPPOSED to be working. Thanks for the giggles!

    This is too funny! I never thought of counting the protein too!! I thought it counted as aerobics,general. Now I am going to see which gives me more credit,aerobic or calisthenics!
    Thanks for the laugh!

    Here is a website to calculate it...I burn 253 calories in 30 minutes!
    This must be a male thing...lol...my boyfriend is the one that found it.
    He thought I should know!

    I don't know about that ... I burn that much in 30 minutes of walking/jogging intervals on steep hills.

    No matter the position, I know for a fact I don't exert nearly that much energy with sex.

    Oh, this gave me such a chuckle. My husband and I had a conversation along those lines the other night. :)

    Haha, I am new to myfitnesspal and this is my first time on the message boards. This was the first one that I came across. I can tell that I'm going to love it already...too funny!! Well I know there are plenty of calories to burn while having sex, if only I was having some.

    Found a (tongue in cheek) listing of "Calories Burned During Sex". Cute, but not for kids

    Maybe all the singles should form a group to "exercise" together. Every city can have its own MFP FWB club...for health and calorie burning reasons only of course! ha

    I googled this earlier this week. Depends on your weight. For me I burn about 5 cals per min. Hell yeah I log it ;)

    I tend to log mine under dancing... :wink:

    Oh please tell me that's not what people are really doing every time I see "dancing" is my status feed! Lol. I hope that doesn't catch on, because sometimes I literally dance as exercise.

    OMG this trend is the best. I am dying over here. I thought this same thing a few months back but wouldnt log it as sex either.

    I just browsed the exercise database for the first time- I was wondering if that's what was meant by 'Calisthenics, home- light/moderate effort'. At least for missonary underneath perhaps?:wink:
