It turns out that increased intimacy time and a warm environment can help burn more calories.
Scientists from the University of Quebec in Montreal found that in 24 minutes of intercourse, men burn about 101 calories, and women – 69 calories.
An article published in the New England Journal of Medicine states that calorie expenditure during sex is comparable to walking at an average pace.
Columnist Venelina Marinova states that regular sexual activity may not affect calorie burn much, but for maximum benefit, it is recommended to increase the duration of intercourse and create a truly warm atmosphere.
The author also recommends experimenting with positions and using calculator apps to help determine the number of calories burned based on partners’ gender, weight, and posture.
