Sex diet: how to burn calories effortlessly
Do you want to lose a few pounds but are allergic to diets? Instead of a strict diet, we suggest a much more fun way to lose the extra pounds: the sex diet. An "intense night of love" can in fact be almost like a hard workout in the gym in terms of calorie loss. If you are too lazy to play sports, this is definitely the way to go.
After all, there are many benefits of sex, as the following video suggests.
Sex is effectively a physical activity, so when you do it, your body burns calories for energy. Keep in mind that the more intense the sex, the more muscles will be involved and the more calories you burn. Here is the caloric expenditure data in a 30-minute session:
- Spoon position: 190 kcal
- Missionary position: 220 kcal
- Position of the rider: 500 kcal
- Passionate kiss with the tongue: 20 kcal per minute
You will also be happy to know that orgasm allows you to burn extra calories and increases your heart rate, making your heart stronger and healthier. Don't underestimate foreplay and any play between the sheets; for example, doing a striptease dance for taking off your clothes can allow us to burn up to 160 kilocalories.

Tone your body
In addition to serving to burn calories, sex allows us to tone different parts of the body such as the belly, buttocks or thighs. This, however, only if you take the initiative and actively move: lying in bed without trying too hard, obviously does not have the desired effects.
Forget about weights and other gym equipment and move your workout to the bedroom. But don't forget your partner but together, give life to an energetic, sinuous and full of passion dance that, in addition to giving you pleasure, will help you to easily dispose of a few excess pounds.
Here are some positions particularly suitable for toning the body:
- The swing of love: surround her side with your legs, contract the floor of the pelvis and tilt it back and forth, strengthening the belly and back
- The rider: an ideal posture to firm thighs and buttocks.
- Standing from the back: stretch your legs well and you will tone your thighs and abdomen.
Of course, sex alone isn't enough if it's not paired with an active life and a balanced diet. A healthy diet, correct lifestyles and regular rhythms help keep fit and show off a more toned and healthier physique.
