I should, in theory, be as skinny as a rake by now then :smokin:0

It burns about 150 cals in 30 min, for vigorous activity. I wore my hrm.
I was a little bummed it didn't burn more.
Anyway, if its something you're doing on a regular basis, then it shouldn't count as a workout.
It should be considered part of your day to day activity.
That's why most people don't log it.
No, I don't log it because it's just freaking weird and I have my mum on my friends list!
It's just TMI... :noway:0 -
She is totally right. I was once about to lose my house and sex helped me save it from the evil bankers. Sex has magical powers.
You had sex with evil bankers?
Or got paid for sex.
Just saying!0 -
I'm still confused why OP thinks it's good for your hair.0

There are much better ways of burning calories.
Let sex be sex rather than a poor excuse for a workout.0 -
Ive been having a lot of sexercise this last couple of week. My gf wanted to tone up....I did tell her she didn't need to first...then i suggested extra sexercise as a bit of fun.....it much more fun than the treadmill..both a bit addicted to it right now.0

A thread to let others know you have sex. How old are you, OP?
24
& we both know women just lay there, us guys do all the work, so she's probably burning <10 calories.
Not all women just lay there0 -
My wife and I wore our HRMs once. In 40 minutes I burned 148 and she burned 219. She was on top.
You pair would be better off with a treadmill :-)0 -

Correct, the good one's do a hell of a lot more than lay there, I have one of the good ones.
And here is a calorie calculator specific to sex:

Not sure how accurate it is, but you can manually enter the details into MFP and whatnot.0 -

By the time I'm finished with a lady (roles also reversed) we are both lathered in sweat
Followed by a nice drink for fluid replenishment :drinker:
This is much more enjoyable than a 10km run and pumping iron.0 -

you can find it in other exercise databases but it would vary greatly. I actually told my OH this morning I was going to go workout if he didn't have any other idea for cardio. He was too tired so I spent my time with Jillian. I had joked about wearing my HRM just out of curiosity but I haven't. I just take it as a bonus...in more ways than one.0

A vigorous HJ or BJ session, or being on top must burn some calories. I'm glad I'm not the only one having this thought!
LOL

what about sex on your own....how many calories....? haha0
-
I've been tempted to give my husband a HJ with my fitbit hand, just to see how many steps it registers.0

go to a site called calorie count... they have 'various' calorie burn amounts.... :blushing: :blushing:

^^^^^^^ this^^^^^^I have worn my hrm during sex and burnt 100 cals! I created my own exercise and yes I log it
I don't log house cleaning cuz I rarely do it but I try to have sex once a day and log the more vigorous sessions!
No shame here! 0 -
These posts have made me feel like I can get through my day. And now I want to have sex. LOL0

When the TDEE calculators ask about life style, you should just include your sex life. That's why I always answer "sedentary." 0

I have my HRM ready.0 -
I can't log it since it is all part of my day. Hubby is ok with me wearing mine and him his if we cared enough but who wants to have to put their hrm on that many times and add everything up for it to not count anyway cause it is part of ur daily activity levels. I consider it a fun way to burn a few extra calories if we do it more times than normal in a day. :drinker:0

Not sure how much of a workout I can get in 37 seconds0

What is this sex people keep talking about. Isn't it a myth?
I am willing to confirm that it is a myth designed to make us feel even worse that we are celibate.0 -
It's part of my daily activity so I don't count it. But I've read it doesn't burn as much as people think.0

I'm a rehab professional and for cardiac patients we use MET (metabolic equivalence) levels to indicate what exercise is appropriate for different stages of cardiac rehab, well anyway sex isn't recommended until and individual can tolerate exercise at a MET level 5-6 (depending on how vigorous). So anyway when I've had a particularly rigorous romp, I log it as badminton which is of the same MET level. I haven't gotten curious enough to try the HRM, lol.
Nerd alert!0 -
Hmmmm...sex is like air....it's not important until you're not getting any.
I'd like to say I never give it a thought, but I'm a guy and it is always on my mind... and is a prefered workout...lol
Having said that, its odd that I put on the weight that I did....considering...hmmmm....I think I need more 0
