Sex can really sweat, but do you think sweating can burn calories and be thin?
Losing weight through frequent sex is a mistake
When people have sex, certain physiological and psychological reactions occur in various systems and organs throughout the body. For example, during orgasm, the number of heartbeats per minute increases to 110 to 180 times per minute, the number of breaths increases to 40 times per minute, and the blood pressure increases to 180/110 millimeters of mercury (24/14.7 kPa). According to this, in recent years, some people believe that sexual life can consume a large amount of heat energy, thereby achieving the goal of losing weight.
Overseas people also make lists of the heat consumption of various activities. Take off your jacket for 12 kilocalories, take off your underwear for 8 kilocalories, foreplay for 3 kilocalories, orgasm for 112 kilocalories, orgasm for 12-36 kilocalories, etc. All these data seem to believe in this type of sexual weight loss technique.
However, according to recent sexual research reports, although people jump and breathe faster during sexual activity, the physiological changes in blood pressure increase seem to indicate that people have completed heavy physical labor. However, in fact, these physiological changes are mainly the psychological effects of sexual activity, which does not prove that there is indeed a lot of energy consumption at this time.
A researcher published research results on a Russian sexual and sexual health website. Sexual weight loss is a misconception among people about sex and weight loss today. People consume little energy during sex, consuming only 250 calories during sex, and only 400 calories during orgasm. In this way, if you want to lose weight through sex, it is difficult for people to consume enough calories only after having sex for a few hours or even longer.
What are the dangers of frequent sex
1、 Poor physical condition
For both men and women, physical exertion is high, and for a long time, physical fitness is bound to decline. Immediately affects the mental state, and the ability to think, remember, and analyze is becoming increasingly low.
2、 Sexual organ overwork
Due to the continuous and repeated occurrence of sexual impulses, both men and women can increase the burden control of the nerve center and sexual organs, and frequent fatigue results in functional decline, leading to premature aging of the function.
3、 Induced dysfunction
Men often have a repetitive life, extending ejaculation time. The occurrence of ejaculation during the second sexual activity must be longer than the first, thus burying the risk of future dysfunction such as induced impotence, non ejaculation, delayed ejaculation, and lack of pleasure in sexual activity.
