Sex
alright so this might be a little forward....thought it might catch some attention though :o can sex count as exercise?!?? lol Please say yes. I wont go into details from here but with all the work put into it ....i would say...good cardio? (lol or am i doing it wrong ;) )
|
Shell :lol3: i agree 100% always feels like a workout to me. i have actually posted marathon booty night as my exercise in alternachicks. :p
|
**** I did a calories check on a website it said u only burn 2 cals per mintue feels like much more to me...........

Boy, what an attention-getting title!! I have to concur w/ Heather: I, too, have read that it burns very little calories.
|
I just went to fitday.com and looked up sexual activity.
Here's what I found: 10 minutes - Sexual activity, Passive, light effort, kissing, hugging= 0 calories burned 10 minutes - Sexual activity, General, moderate effort = 4 calories burned 10 minutes - Sexual activity, Active, vigorous effort = 7 calories burned Well - I guess I'd rather be walking :lol: |
Yeah; I'm not sure many folks have the energy (or stomach) for what would qualify as "vigorous activity" :-O
:) |
:eek: well thats a bummer. It feels like A LOT more than that. oh well. wont count on that as exercise for my day anymore! HAHA thanks for the research guys.
|
Well..this sucks. I always thought it was one of those good exercises too..like swimming or jump rope. Pfooey!! That's it...hubby gets cut off now!!
:lol3: Kidding kidding!!!!!!! |

i did fit day too it said i burn 2 at that huh maybe it does with how much u weigh coz the more u weigh the more u burn..........
|
I think they are #'s for women... Now that I think about it...Men might be able to count this as a "vigorus healthy exercise."
It has been medically proven that if a man has 1-2x a week of healthy sexual activity, he reduces his chances of Prostate/Testicular/Bladder/Male Genitilia cancer significantly. This is due to the fact that these areas are being "cleansed out" regularly. Interesting, huh... |
I would think it would depend upon the position and where your at in this position :o
|
Hmmm, that doesn't sound right. I heard that you burn 450 calories for an avg 8 hour sleep, yet 10 mins of vigorous sexual activity burns only 7 calories?? I'm gonna have to disagree with fitday. :no:
|
Just to be safe, I'm now vowing to only have sex while out hiking.
Either way, it will count as exercise. :D |
