Is it true you can burn 800 calories during the peak of an orgasm?? I saw it on TV about a year ago and I dont know if it is true or not.

Hi, mxchick239, welcome!

I don't know but I think someone either misplaced a decimal point or is having a bit of fun! Here is a calculator for Calories burned while jogging: http://www.preventdisease.com/healthtools/articles/while_jogging.html Input your weight and distance run and it gives you the calories. It's an estimate but still. For me at 100 lbs and jogging 1 mile I would burn about 65 calories. Tell me an orgasm, even an extended one with major participation on my part, would burn even twice 65 calories! I don't think so! Lol! Thanks for posting.

Take care,

      Jill

Hi Dancer:


I do NOT burn any 800 calories during an orgasm.
