sex

sex is a cardio workout am i right? Do you know of any positions or anything that will increase the intensity?

p.s. no need to worry i'm not a nymph or anything, but i'm pretty positive that most of us on here have sex every now and again and every little bit helps!

n/a

depends on weather you are wearing fit-flops or not i suppose

The calorie expenditure in any activity depends on the speed, range of motion and resistance involved, and let's not go there :-P

Hahaha! Oh Lord this could get interesting.

lol at #3! Thanks for making me smile =)

You should ask CelluliteDelight. She was dissatisfied with the entry here, put on a heart rate monitor, and had her wicked way with her hubby in the name of research ;)

 Dunno what she concluded, but she says Alex was very happy at least :-P

speed, range of motion and resistance involved... hm... i would suppose it would do well to simply compare it to other documented activity... like comparing your trysts to, say yoga, firefighter training or say... kickboxing? 

 

If your sexual activities resemble kickboxing, it's safe to say you're doing it wrong :-P

Thank you to #2, 3, and 8 for making me giggle this morning.

 

Much love! <3 (no, not that kind!)

Wow sex!

I remember that!

Sure do miss it!

This thread has made me decide it's time to start dating again after 2 years!

Nothing conducive to add in relation to your question, just a huge .....

THANK YOU!

Well, I don't want to get too graphic, but you did ask for position ideas.  Since you're also a gal, I have one word for you: squats.  If you need more explanation, let me know.  All I can say is that after a good session my quads burn and my bf is is ecstacy.

Don't forget about duration!

Umm, Melkor, I can personally attest that throwing in a few Brazilian Jiu Jitsu moves works out very well (not the chokes, don't worry), so perhaps there might be a few kickboxing things that aren't wrong.  Now about the firefighter training...hmmm.

Gee thanks guys - just had to explain to my boss why I was LMAO!

but i'm pretty positive that most of us on here have sex every now and again and every little bit helps!

Haha, why do you think I'm even on this site, surely I'm not the only one here trying (albeit unsucessfully) to get laid?

thank you smwhipple for helping me in appearing less insane :)

with the firefighter training i was probably thinking of the time too much beer and UFC turned into a raucous chase around two properties... my being tossed up and into a cedar shrub... and ultimately leading to a little dirty dirty.

felt like boot camp the next morning, and DEF burned calories, thats for sure ;)

Remember that 007 movie with Pierce Brosnan and the whole fight/seduction scene?  Definitely not my version of good sex, but apparently it works for some, that's about what I'd picture kickboxing sex to look like!  BJJ is mostly grappling, so it's just a better method to hold you close.

Cedar shrubs just sound uncomfortable to me!

I laughed so hard at this. Oh man.

When I first saw this post I wasn't gonna look. So happy I did!!!! LMAO I'm gonna have to tell hubby about this so he can help me lose weight! lol

thats easy.

get on top, do it fast, and use your core and hips. and tell him not to finish for at least half an hour.

i GUARANTEE you'll be the one who can't last that long, because you're so exhausted!

Sex is listed as an activity we can post......Hmmmmm. Any exercise you enjoy is good exercise. I'd say sex is good.
