Myth: Being active means a smaller number on the scale
You’ve probably heard this one. While it’s not exactly a myth, it’s also not relevant if your goal is to get rid of more than a couple of pounds. That’s because, according to various studies, thirty minutes of bedroom activity burns 85 to 150 calories.
More specifically, men tend to burn approximately 101 calories while women burn around 70, with an average of 3.6 calories per minute. In the best-case scenario, if you burn up to 100 calories per session, you’d have to make love 35 times in order to lose one pound.
It might not sound too bad, but, in reality, most people’s bedroom sessions do not last thirty minutes. In fact, according to a recent study, a love-making session lasts between three to seven minutes, on average.
Just look on the bright side! You might not be able to lose the unwanted pounds but you can enjoy your partner’s attention and all the great things that come with it.
This next myth is heartbreaking…… not……
