Wow. bigger numbers mean jack.

I was reading some Yahoo question things and I noticed someone asking if sex burned any calories.People said don't bother, you'll burn more doing jumping jacks. Or something.Gawsh though, jumping jacks for say 195 pound person, burns 11 calories a minute. sex burns 5-6. Hmm. lets see what am I gonna to burn more with.An activity I can do for 2-3 minutes then fall over dead. or an activity that burns half that, that I can handle for up to 3 hours.even if the average person only has 15 minutes of sex. 15x5 = 75 calories burnt. 11x3 is 33. Sex wins.Edit: Also I wish people would stop saying you'd have to do (this activity) for 12-18-38 or some shit hours just to lose ONE POUND!Sorry but nobody works out to try to lose 3500 calories a day.

Those things are often very, very exaggerated. The amount of energy burnt doing exercise is often A LOT less than you think.

Exactly. I bet to get that 6 calories a minute level you'd have to be the woman, on top and going at it like your life depended on it.

LOL! You don't give up, don't you? No one said that having sex does not burn calories. But I truly doubt that ANYONE can have sex often enough to have ANY significant notice in weight loss.

Get over it. Just because you lost weight while coincidently having sex, doesn't mean the two came hand in hand. I'm betting that because you work on a farm and you watched what you intake, that's where your weight loss came from.

I wish you did also. "If you do this, you burn this amount of calories. So, if you worked out this many hours, you'll burn this amount of weight!".

There's 4025 calories in a pound of fat, 500 or so is water or something so I've read so it goes down to about 3500.

But what I say is reasonable and proven. Daily sex, can and will help you lose weight. just as any daily exercise. People act like I'm saying who needs exercise or to do work, sex takes care of everything.

walking burns about 3.5 calories a minute. almost nothing. but walk for 2 hours and thats 420 calories. Do that every day for a week you've got 2940. If you've always ate aprox 2000 calories a day. that's 14000 calories a week. if your body only burns 2000 calories a day doing what you do, then you won't lose weight, period.

It's first grade math. Maybe not many people can get it as often as I do when my gf is here. But you can't tell me "It's not doable" because of that situation.

Otherwise I can tell you it's impossible to get much bulk and, define, don't lie you know it's impossible, because I can't get to a gym or weights with bigger resistance then 25 pounds. It doesn't matter if you can, because I can't and most of the people in my area can't therefore it can't be done and obviously can't help you.

So what exact activity burns 6 calories/minute during sex?

I'm assuming thrusting.Edit.Or maybe doggy style?

If it's been "proven" by a reliable and creditable sourse, then please share. I'm sorry but I'm not going to be so quick to believe a fifteen year old who hasn't finished school tell me this is a "proven" fact. Especially, if you're "assuming".You're right, sex doesn't take care of everything, but it's not going to help greatly as you like to believe.

OK well... I guess you can take your numb dick and thrust away for 3 hours straight to lose weight. Good luck and have fun.

I use too, remember. Those were good times, now my gf is on probation and I dun see her often though

Well you and a certain other person here are sex gods then. I doubt a whole lot of people spend 3 hours of thrusting away... That's why your weight loss theory is a bunch of hot air.

Blah sex gods. It's called being young and healthy Besides most people still bang for 30 minutes, 4x30 is still 120. which still burns off a nice little bit.I mean, you might as well just sit on your ass if you're looking for numbers because doing so you're still gonna see (saying you're 150 or so) 2200 calories. Some how I think something burning 4-6 calories a minute. that everyone can do at least 20-30 minutes of. Is going to out way a exercise that burns 10-12 calories a minute that you can only do for 2-3 minutes.

If you can only do 2-3 minutes of jumping jacks, you need to exercise. And most people don't have sex for thirty minutes. The average time is 5-10 minutes. 120 calories is shit. You're better off playing a sport, running, or lifting weights. I wonder if you realize that the argument you're making against certain ways of exercising could easily be applied to your argument for this form of "exercise."

Omfg are you serious. do most people really only screw for 5-10 minutes?Like, themselves. not because they have to hurry and finish before their parents catch them or something?And don't put words in my mouth Cider, I'm not against any exercises. I just want people to know that if they bothered to put longtivity into it they can burn a fair amount of calories that would help them.I mean I'm sure they're gonna still exercise as well as having sex. It's basically an extra work out they can add that will allow a fair amount of calories being burnt in addition to everything else they do, which will help in weight loss, yes many other things can be applied, but this one should not be shunned because of it.However, I don't believe the ages at least 14-30, only last 5-10 minutes on average. Unless you're counting really over weight people who have trouble walking and breathing as it is.

If you start timing from insertion, yes. Indeed it may be an over-estimate. It's not usually that they get too tired, it's because most guys will have ejaculated and finished by then. It's a common complaint by women, that their partners don't last long enough.

You must be God's gift to women, FallenLight. :smile: Though surely most women couldn't handle three hours of thrusting?

I was wondering about that myself. Guys love the seemingly glamorous idea about having such high stamina. But I wonder, do their women love that idea as well? I can't imagine that most women want to be pounded for hours straight every time they have sex. It's not very fun and the soreness isn't worth it!

You can always work on homework or read a book while waiting.

Not to mention inconvenient. If you have sex twice in one day that's a quarter of your day gone!

I wonder if there are people who are into stuff like that. Like reading while having sex, writing a report while having sex, or even playing video games while having sex. Of course, as the rule goes, since I thought of it, there has to be a porn site dedicated to this stuff.
