How Many Calories Are Burned During Sex?

One of the most fun physical activities that no one things of as a workout is sex.
While you're having sex, you're actually burning off a lot of a lot of calories as well.
But how many calories are burned during sex? Is this enough to really make a difference on your waist line? It is estimated that you can burn between 80 to 200 calories in 30 minutes of sexual intercourse.
Naturally, this depends on the position you choose and how energetic your lovemaking is.
Combination of foreplay and other forms of intimacy with intercourse can yield varying degrees of calorie burn.
Let's assume that on each lovemaking you burn about 100 calories.
If you have sex 3 times a week you will burn 300 calories each week or 1200 calories each month (or maybe a bit more since a month is slightly longer than 4 weeks).
In a year, this will amount to 14,400 calories that you will have burned by having sex alone.
Naturally, if you and your partner are particularly active and make love more often, this total amount can become much higher.
As a pound of fat takes 3,500 calories to burn, you're looking at a total loss of an extra 4 pounds of fat from your body! Not too bad for having fun, right? 4 Pounds may not seem like much but if you accept the common view that running burns 100 calories per mile, you're looking at about 144 miles of jogging that you've actually done.
All of them without leaving your bed! The calories burned during sex aren't the only benefit of having sex often.
Research shows that sex decreases stress, improves blood circulation, gets the heart pumping, and can even make you more content and happy.
All these things help you to remain fit and to avoid weight gain, even if they do so indirectly.
Now, having sex won't get you thin and lean by itself.
Unless you maintain a healthy diet nothing will help you to stay lean and healthy.
In addition, there are other workouts that burn more body fat and give you more value for your time, fitness wise.
However, the many benefits of having sex do play an additional role in keeping you fit, healthy, happy, and calm, all of which will help you to not only feel better but to look better as well.
