![]() Photo via Splash When we saw the headline "56 Reasons to Have Sex" in Women's Health--yep, the one with the taco-tickling tag line we mentioned yesterday--we just knew that the supposed weight-loss benefits of getting jiggy was going to be near the top. (Hey, we're guilty of promising readers the same thing ourselves.) And sure enough, clocking in at number three is this: "Work off that Rice Krispies Treat without hitting the treadmill. One 30-minute roll in the hay burns about 200 calories." Which is not that much less than you'd burn on the treadmill--and quite a bit more than you'd burn during a brisk walk in the countryside. Maybe we're giving away a little too much about our own sex lives when we ask this, but is the average shagger really burning 200 calories during 30 minutes of rutting? On a regular basis? And who actually gets out of breath during sex? (And we don't mean in a "take my breath away" sensual kind of way.) Not that you guys are average shaggers by any means, but we want to know how athletic your lovin' is... 1 CommentsLeave a comment |

When I have good chemistry with a person it's usually pretty exhausting - panting, muscles soar the next day, acrobatic, sweaty, aerobic fun.
If it's someone lame, then yeah I'm probably only burning as many calories as I would lifting the spoon to eat another scoop of ice cream while watching another episode of Real Housewives of Orange County. It's lackluster at best, mostly awkward and not energetic much at all.
Plus 200 calories isn't huge, right?
