Honestly... How can you log sex

unless you wear a HRM, which is kind of like wearing socks when doing the deed.

But If you don't wear one, how do you know how many calories you're burning? Both of you, and neither of you are doing all of the work the whole time, there's moving around, then after laying there for a minute or so, it's time for round two... do you count the break?

    Plus I don't get why you'd log sex. Ok, it's physical activity, but isn't it just part of your normal life? I mean, I guess if you're having all kinds of sexy time now when you weren't before it would be something extra, but I just don't get it. It's like if I logged every time I did laundry or something...

    Also, the LAST thing I'm thinking about during sexy time is how many calories I'm burning. If THAT'S what's on your mind when you bone, man, you need to spice things up!

    I consider it "bonus burn".

    I read on the internet (so it must be true) that you have to have your heart rate up for 30 minutes to log the calories burned. That totally leaves me out! :frown:

    Sure that wasn't 3? That might be doable....
