Sex can be an enjoyable addition to your regular exercise routine, but it can’t replace even mild aerobic exercise and has only an indirect effect on immunity, if any.
Sexual and aerobic activity can feel very similar – you’re moving, breathing heavily, feeling warm all over, and you feel a pleasant tiredness when you’re done. But feelings can be deceiving, so let’s look at some facts.
There are many benefits to getting busy. Sex has been shown to reduce pain and stress thanks to endorphins, reinforce intimacy thanks to the release of oxytocin, and help you sleep better. But sexual activity is not a replacement for actual exercise. It does have one undeniable advantage: 98% of the participants in the track-walking study admitted that sex is much more fun and pleasure is the best motivation.
