in Fitness and Exercise
I did post this on my board as well, but isn't sex a calorie burning activity? Just wanted some thoughts on this and why it isn't found in the database.

    It makes me wonder what you would categorize it as, if you wanted to put it in as an exercise???

    I have just been putting in "jogging" for a certain period. Glad others share my thoughts. Seriously, sex does burn a lot of calories!

    Haha, I accidentally had my HRM on during and burned over 200 calories! I wouldn't usually log it though, in the same way that people overestimate their calories sometimes, I just see it as a 'bonus' ;)
