Wait, Giving Your Dude a Handy Is Like the Same as Going to the Gym (We'll Explain)

Listen, if you’re one of those people who genuinely likes picking up heavy things in front of a mirror surrounded by sweaty strangers, there’s nothing wrong with that.
But if you're not, that's cool, too.
I mean, when you’re waking up in the morning, bra off, S.O. looking sexy as ever, morning breath masked by the mint you just popped in your mouth, do you actually want to spend that extra 45 minutes sweating on a stationary bike while someone yells at you? Especially when you could be hitting round two? Or three? Or four (you do you) with bae?
Well, according to data by Perfect Fit, a sex-enhancer product line, now you don’t have to decide between going to the gym and morning sex.
Women, on average, can burn nearly 69 calories (yep, 69, lol) for every 25 minutes of sex. And men? One hundred.
This means that the next time the weird Tinder dude texts you, “Oh, I’ll give you a workout alright” when you tell him you can’t hang because you have a boxing class, he may actually be kind of right. But also, he's gross. Block him.
So if you really want to get your hearts pumpin’ in more ways than just sex, here’s what else Perfect Fit found:

- Making out can burn 230 calories per every half hour. Which is the equivalent of, like, 200 miles on the treadmill, right?
- Massaging your partner can burn 80 calories per hour. Now *this* is the way to incentivize your partner for a back rub.
- Performing oral sex can burn 100 calories per half hour. Tell that to the dude who refuses to go down on you because he just “doesn’t do that.”
- Giving a handy can burn 100 calories per hour. I mean, if you ever want to feel like you’re stuck in middle school at an open movie theatre, do your thing.
- And apparently, don’t forget to moan and sigh. The louder you are, the more you can burn—like, literally 18-30 calories per moan (which is the equivalent of exactly one m&m by my precise calculations).
