8 Sexy Ways to burn calories

Not often I find an article so worth copying.  It won't be verbatim, but this appeared in Woman's Day and I thought it was a hoot.  We are always looking for ways to burn calories!  And most of those ways involve exercise we really don't want to do.  But --- what if there was a way to burn that caloric nonsense that might actually be enjoyable?

Let's think back to dating days - quite a trip in time for a lot of us, but humor me.  You glowed.  You'd often forget to eat.  You were in a constant state of OMG I love this feeling!  Here is a list of the calories you were burning up then, without probably caring.

8 calories - undressing
68 calories per hour - kissing
80+ calories per hour - massage
144+ calories per hour - having sex
103 Calories per half hour - romantic dancing
238 calories per half hour - making out
(these numbers based on a 150 pound woman)

Kind of weird you'd burn LESS actually "doing it" but there is something about having that heart rate up during a hot and steamy make out session that burns up those calories, 238 per half hour! 

"The hotter the room - think Bikram (a.k.a. "hot" yoga) - and the sweatier the make-out session, the more calories you burn" says Jaiya Kinzbach, an L.A. based sexologist and author of "Red Hot Touch".  "Also try rolling around on the bed or changing your scenery.  Make it playful and erotic and you have a great combination for a pleasurable workout."

I wanted to end this year with something fun - yet helpful.  This seemed to fill that and it is probably something you would not have expected here, right?  Gotta keep everyone on their toes!

If working out more is on your list of "intentions" for the New Year, well, here ya go!  Regardless of HOW you work out in 2013, as Nike says "Just Do It!"
