While we’re still fresh on the subject of calories… Here’s one with a twist. It’s not that often I find something interesting enough on someone else’s blog to quote on my site, but this one’s just too interesting to miss! Now, I don’t know to what extent the facts below are true, but they sure did get me thinking! Check it out:
KISSING: Kissing can burn around 120-325 calories an hour, or around 2-5 calories a minute. Engaging in long make-out sessions with your partner is not only good for your relationship; it is also good for your waistline. A 10 minute make-out session with your partner each morning and each evening could burn up to 100 calories a day. That’s 36,500 calories a year, or just over 10 pounds worth of weight loss. When was the last time you made out with your partner.
UNDRESSING: According to an Italian professor, even undressing can burn off calories. Unclasping a bra with two hands burns 8 calories, while unclasping it with only one hand burns up 18 calories. Unclasping it with your mouth can burn 87 calories.
ORAL SEX: 15 minutes of oral sex can burn off the calories consumed in a long sip of wine. There are calories present in semen, though, so if you swallow, there are around 7 calories in a teaspoon of semen. Since the average volume of ejaculation is 1-2 teaspoons, you can expect an average of 7-14 calories per ejaculation. That will easily be burned off during the course of your lovemaking, though.
MASTURBATION: You don’t have to have a partner to enjoy the calorie-burning effects of sex. Masturbation can burn up the calories, as well. You can lose between 100-150 calories for each act of masturbation, according to the Young People’s Reproductive and Sexual Health & Rights Organization. You can raise that amount to around 300 calories, though, through a 5 minute vigorous masturbation session, according to Japanese scientist Dr. Shukan Tokuho.
INTERCOURSE: The average lovemaking session burns between 50 and 100 calories. Having sex 3 times a week burns 7500 calories per year. That’s the equivalent of jogging 75 miles. The more intense the sex, the more calories are burned: up to 15,000 calories annually (at a frequency of 3 times weekly). 15,000 calories wquals over 4 pounds of weight loss per year!
ORGASM: Experts estimate that an orgasm can burn between 60-100 calories.

Anyway.. what bothers me is that it says average lovemaking sessions to only burn between 50-100 calories? Isn’t that ridiculously low? Maybe the couple should ‘bump up’ the intensity a bit? He he. Maybe you could use these facts to con an unsuspecting partner… ? Anyway.. makes you wonder doesn’t it… which would you rather choose? The gym, or the bed? or the dining table.. or the floor.. the sofa.. garden bench…car… in the shower.. Heh heh. Have a great long & naughty weekend people. ;)

Pretty! This has been an extremely wonderful post. Thank you
for supplying this information.
No wonder priests are so fat.
For a real kick, read the book “Dieter’s Guide to Weight Loss During Sex. It’s not only hysterical, they’ve broken down every single solitary activity related to it and the calories burned from being nervous on a date to getting dressed to remorse and more!
And almost two thirds of women who do own gym memberships said they were happier to carry out such activities as having sex and even doing the vacuuming if they thought it would burn as many calories as a traditional workout.
i go for workout daily. i also masturbates once a day. wil it harm me or cause any problem in weight lifting
Also, muffy, I doubt you’ll ever see this. But yes. Certain foods can improve the taste of semen. Citrus containing fruits, pineapples, and a mostly vegetarian diet would produce a better tasting semen. Red meats make it more bitter.
One thing to keep in mind is that these numbers are most likely based off of the idea that the average sex session lasts 5-7 minutes. Which I believe was reported back in 2006. Now, 5 minutes of intercourse, in the missionary position, for an average pair of people, both unenthusiastic. 50-200 calories I can believe. So of course, intercourse that’s lasts longer, with both partners giving it their all, Sweating and what not. You’re going to burn a lot more calories during sex.
Ya – very entertaining. There isn’t a mention of duration. There’s got to be a difference between having intercourse for 20 mins and 2 hours. It might also be interesting to compare sexual positions. For example, in the doggy-style position, the man is surely going to burn more calories than the woman. And this must go for positions where one person is on top and the other underneath. On top must burn off more.
Haha, I’ve seen this info passed around before. If it’s somehow true, it’s no wonder Pamela Anderson stays so fit.
I wouldn’t know though, because i work out every day and bench 275 easily. I can go for 3-4 hours of sex without stopping if a girl lets me… so whether the great body I have is a result of working out or sex I will never know.
Btw, this was f’in hilarious to read, especially the comments.
Oh an if I’m picking a favorite spot etc., I’d say top is gotta be pool. Around and in it. You can have allllllllooooot of fun. ;]
I was told you can change the taste of semen by eating different foods. Is this true?
Men should stay away from garlic and onions and slug down the pineapple juice.
Normally I don’t comment on your posts but I wanted to let you know that I have trouble loading your site. I dunno if it is me or what but I get like 500 error all the time. Whatever 500 error means. Just to let u know
LMAO thanks for the read hahaha
VERY entertaining. Great post.
Quite honestly, the funniest bits were in the comments x)
-Unaccompanied Minor-
Average is about 3 hours, I guess.
What time frame is “average”? My man goes for 2 hours.
So! Masturbating you are actually burning off more calories? That explains a lot! ;)
Eric – maybe a little more for a sports bra. lol
How much to remove a sports bra?
Haha John, good one. You made me laugh.
Yes Melanie, its probably a stainless steel bra, which should be detached with unwelding facilities a man should first brig into the room. Stairs up with oxygen bottle, gasbotlle, unwelding materials, that’s the clue of all this “unclapsing” a bra with one hand. imagination is necessary here…
I would check your facts, how could unclasping a bra with one hand burn 18 calories when one act of intercourse only burns 50? That doesn’t make any sense unless we’re talking about some sort of superbra.
Hi KV – of course – this is pretty much just entertainment material. There’s no way kissing can burn 325 calories/hour if you ask me – unless of course if it’s kissing on the treadmill. Even then, it would have to be on an incline walk!
Thanks for the reminder and the reality check.
Sorry to bring the bad news, but the calorie info is totally, totally wrong.
E.g. “Unclasping a bra with two hands burns 8 calories” ??? go to a local gym, jump on a bicycle and try to burn 8 calories in a minute. Come back afterwards.
Real statistics? A man burns about 7 calories every 5 minutes of VIGOROUS sex. That sounds more like it. A 100 calorie sex session would imply about 70 minutes of hardcore sex, and I bet there’s not a lot of you who can do that.
Burning 100-150 calories with masturbation??? Again, it’s more in the range of 3.
So if you’re wondering why with you aren’t getting thinner due to all that sex then you’ve just read the explanation. Enjoy sex for what it is and burn calories like you should.
Looking back at this writeup again after this long… I’m wondering myself… do that many calories really get used up for all the above?
And Rachel… haha… yeah, I wonder what on earth a 5min vigorous session is like as well.
5 minute vigorous masturbation session? Haha I want to know more about that
So! Masturbating you are actually burning off more calories? That explains a lot! ;)
Hmm…. it is fact that, a fitter body compliments to great love making sessions… :D
Maybe I should come up with more sex-fitness related topics. :P. It does seem to confuse my Google Ads though. Ha ha.
doglover : LOLxxx…….haha – BDSM
DM : Havent forgot that its about calories, but sometimes we have to deviate from the topic dont we, especially when its about something thats giving calorie burning benefits and pleasure at the same time.
surfnux : Lower back more like it i think, luckily i’ve been doing loads of deadlifts lol. Could be loads of variations tho, some that will give you massive arms i expect that.
Woohoo this is just the best thing people like to do when burning calories. Good for abs exercise as well. hohohoho
dearest doglover: You are getting naughtier. Hey.. I don’t see how playing dressing up can increase intensity la.. unless of course you try to get into a nurse uniform 5 times smaller than your size.
Is location important? Well.. YES, to a certain extent. :P.
Maybe you should ask Jay to take you for a walk in an open field at night.. or go sit on a washing machine while its on ‘HIGH SPIN’. Go easy on the sand though… I can already imagine it gettin into some ‘not so comfy’ places…
dearest DM: how come there is no information on calories burn during bdsm sessions (fav of Jon) or even playing dressing up as nurse, doctor, policeman, student, etc (whatever that cross ur mind)..
theze can bump up the intensity as u mentioned average lovemaking sessions to only burn between 50-100 calories..
is location that important ????
Jay: This post seems to have attracted you like a magnet eh? Hmm.. the washing machine sounds interesting… and the sand.. hmm.. messy, but nice.
Jon: Actually.. got lots more locations I can think of.. but then.. thought i’d keep my readers.. and not scare them. :P
It’s interesting to see that somehow, we all seemed to have lost track that this writeup is actually about calories. Ha ha.
DM : All the locations at one go haha. From the moment u get down of the car and all the way into the bed at home. Wonder how much intensity is that considered to be haha.
Jay : My #1 would be a private Jacuzzi hehe.
Great post btw.
Whoah Whoah Whoah….. gotta be the first one here…lol!
Hmmm…all done. Locations locations… i love locations.
DM: You should add… from the lists of my personal favourite spots
#5 In a pool
#4 The washing machine (not much of a location but…)
#3 An open field (at night aight…?!?)
#2 In a lecture theatre
and this one tops my list
#1 On the beach (be careful of the sand though…)
Hahahaha!
Cheerz y’all!
