last part of ur answer lol

Answer 2

No, but I've heard that you can get serious carpal tunnel.

I'm sorry, I had to go there. I had a bad moment and saw something where I needed the laugh.

Well, to answer your question seriously, if you think about it, the only muscles which would benefit from this activity would have to be in the arm in which you are using. As far as how many calories you'd burn, I really don't know.

Answer 3

If you need an excuse to masturbate then you must be doing something wrong.

All exercise burns calories, even your hurt muscles burn calories, so just the increased heart rate will increase your calorie burn [very slightly].

Answer 4

Probably more for women and less for men. Women seem to have to do more moving to umm...get themselves off.

Good luck.

Answer 5

Well I think if you masturbate long enough to work up a sweat it might burn some calories but not enough to tell.

Answer 6

everything burns calories. even just lifting ur arm up is burning a calorie or 2.

Answer 7

LOL yea man ull get a massive right arm (or left if ur left handed) as well. You'll burn more calories if ur less excitable.

Answer 8

i guess if you do it all night long lol. but it seriously doesnt burn much calories (u wouldnt notice lol), it might allow u to gain a lil muscle in ur hands lol

Answer 9

Anything that involves moving burns calories.

Answer 10

If it requires motion then there is calorie burn. Not a significant amount.

Answer 11

i would think if it gets your heart pumping more calories will be burned than just sitting there

Answer 12

NO;;cause you finish to quickly for men YES for women they can go all night
