funny things you've worn your hrm for

Yesterday I installed a window air conditioner unit. It was heavy. When I first picked it up my friend made a crack about "don't forget to log your exercise!!" and so I put on my hrm just to see. 35 minutes, 2 windows, lots of expletives, and a broken nail later I burned 254 calories!! Totally surprised me.

Anything you've ever done and surprised you how many calories it burned?

    Folding Laundry. It really adds up when you have several loads to fold, hang and stuff in drawers.

    When I first got it I was curious about how it worked and experimented with a bunch of stupid stuff... try holding your breath it is crazy how much your heart rate starts to change... It made me realize the importance of proper breathing technique.

    Lol I feel like that'd be added pressure. Like the number that comes up would be somehow a rate of performance.

    Edit: About wearing it during sex.

    You can see how many calories eating something delicious burns! Haha I don't own one, but I assume it can be worn for anything.

    I have a friend who does this regularly and posts it as exercise. He created the exercise as Making Whoopie. So we all know what he's been doing. :blushing:

    I've worn it during sex once. It was a little weird, and I kept wanting to check my heart rate during different things, which kinda kills the mood.

    I don't have one, but allways wondered how many calories someone would burn during sex :happy:

    I guess it would depend on the person though!

    Future intended funny use: This weekend I'm going to go to a place where you jump on trampolines FOR FUN. Yeah, I'm gonna wear it there.

    wouldnt wearing it during sexy time sometimes give inaccurate readings? id imagine some dead fish chick laying there with a HRM seeing how many calories it burns to lay there and get pounded and move involuntarily. if youre putting some work in thats different.
