Sex as a form of exercise from "summary" of The 4-hour Body by Timothy Ferriss

Sex is, in fact, a form of exercise. A strenuous one, at that. If you have ever gone at it for hours or tried to hold a position for more than five minutes, you know exactly what I mean. During sex, the heart rate can reach up to 140 beats per minute, equivalent to a brisk walk or a light jog. Muscles are engaged, calories are burned, and sweat is produced. All signs of a good workout. In addition to the physical benefits, sex also releases endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals. These endorphins can reduce stress, alleviate pain, and boost mood. It's like taking a happy pill, but more fun. And let's not forget about the intimacy and connection that sex provides. Emotional well-being is just as important as physical health, and sex can help strengthen bonds between partners. However, not all sex is created equal. It's not just about the act itself, but the effort put into it. To truly reap the benefits of sex as exercise, one must be fully engaged and present. This means trying new positions, experimenting with different levels of intensity, and pushing boundaries. It's about making sex an active and conscious experience, rather than a routine chore. So, the next time you're looking for a fun and effective workout, consider turning to the bedroom. Sex can be a great way to stay in shape, improve mood, and strengthen relationships. It's a win-win situation that's hard to beat. So why not give it a try and see for yourself?
