Is sex considered excercise? Do different positions give you more or less excercise than the other?

It burns some calories, but a vigorous walk is better exercise, if that's your goal.

I've always heard that sex is one of the most physical activities you can perform. You get your heart rate up, your adreneline pumping, and your pelvis pumping to.

It's not bad, as long as it lasts, but it doesn't last very long for most people. And it pales in comparison to a good workout on the treadmill.There's no great benefit to getting your adrenaline pumping, and the pelvic motions are not exactly weight training. All in all, not that many calories are burned by the old in and out.

What is the longest it has ever last for someone? Like whats the record?
-
Wow the British last the longest!

Guys with retarded ejaculation may go all night until they give up through exhaustion.

Whats that?

You can burn quite a few calories having sex. I consider it cardio exercise. shrugs I've actually seen calorie calculators online that will tell you an approximate amount of calories you burn per time amount spent having sex.As far as timing goes. Generally, after a considerable amount of foreplay, I can last around 20 or 30 minutes having sex. If I'm going for 2... She better be in it for a while because I might be in there for an additional 2 hours.My last girlfriend hated my stamina though. She loved it when I came, so every so often if I was wearing a condom I would fake an orgasm... yes, guys fake orgasms too. haha. I only did it because she usually reached climax as soon as I showed signs that I was about to or was cumming.

OK, I know you're a sex god (it sounds like you'd put Harry Reems to shame), but for most people, not that many calories are burned during sex, compared to most any real aerobic exercise.
Go Ask Alice!: Will sex-ercise shed those extra pounds?
In reply to:
According to recent studies, the average 175-pound person can expect to use somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 - 200 calories during 30 - 45 minutes of sexual intercourse. Of course, this estimate will vary by amount of movement and vigor, as well as by type of sex (i.e., oral and anal sex) being had. Another source, Leslee Welch's A Handbook for the Carnally Curious, states that 100 calories are burned during intercourse.
It seems that you will not utilize as many calories as you would on the treadmill.
These caloric expenditure figures are probably in the ballpark range, since the energy used during sex differs from person to person and from session to session. Duration, intensity, effort, frequency, and position probably influence the number of calories expended during sex, as well as during any other physical activity. This may not answer your question adequately, but it does point out the difficulty of measuring an activity that cannot be standardized easily.
The issues to consider with these numbers are how scientifically valid these sex-ercise studies or sources are. The bottom line is that sex probably does not expend as many calories per unit of time as running, cycling, or rollerblading, but this will not likely stop people from continuing to have sex, right? Just make sure that sex is not your main source of physical fitness. Instead, stick with a regular exercise program, if you don't already (who knows --- this may reward you with possibly improved sexual stamina and result in some extra energy expenditure, too!).

lol. I'm not sure I'm comfortable being called a sex god. It sounds like I have so much to live up to. Besides, I need to burn all those calories during sex because afterwards I'm always really really hungry.

Retarded ejaculation is the problem of taking forever to cum. Some medications can cause it, or sometimes the cause is psychological.
-
i dk.. but after i'm done i'm usally a little sweaty and damp hair and my hearts going fast. but not jacking off...i mean not hot or sweaty but my heart will be going faster. then i want to crash and take a nap lol

They say to much adrenaline can kill you

They say to much adrenaline can kill youWho is this "they" I've heard so much about?I doubt that the adrenaline from having sex will kill you. If you drank two gallons of water while having sex, that would probably kill you.

I hope they get their comeuppance.
