Okay, I apologize in advance if you don’t like the topic but I can assure you that this post is not raunchy or sleezy at all. However, it is about sex.
It’s not about technique or dirty pictures, or anything of that nature. It is simply about how having sex can lead to weight loss.
Yes, it’s true. While we mostly focus on doing cardio and lifting weights, lovemaking is a great and fun physical activity that can help you burn calories and get thin.
You may be surprised at how many calories are burned during sex. If you make love 3 times a week, you can burn 7,500 calories in a year which is what you would burn if you jogged 75 miles. This isn’t a typo. 75 miles.
Sex has many health benefits besides being a calorie burning activity:
1. It’s fun which is always good for your health.
2. It helps reduce stress which is known as a major weight gain culprit. Stress can also increase the risk of heart diseases, ulcers, and other illnesses.
3. It helps you get a good night sleep which has a lot to do with the fact that it reduces stress. Sleeping well has long been connected to weight gain. Studies show that people who sleep better tend to lose weight more easily.
4. It helps strengthen your muscles and bones. More muscle tone equals a faster metabolism rate and also helps you look better.
5. Sex helps to improve your cardiovascular fitness levels which is always a great thing.
All in all, just by making love with the person you love you get to not only lose weight but to also improve your health and burn some calories in the process.
Of course, sex can’t be your sole activity. You do need to spend some time doing regular exercise and to make sure to follow a healthy eating plan. Other than that, have fun, make love, and lose weight.
