Having sex after a dry spell could kill you. Just great.

New research, from the kind of scientists who seem intent on spoiling people's fun instead of curing cancer, suggests that having sex only occasionally puts you at more than twice the risk of having a heart attack.
You're damned if you don't; you're nearly twice as damned if you do.
The problem arises in people who aren't used to any regular physical exercise. When they go for an irregular workout, or have sex, the risk of cardiac problems is 2.7 times as high as normal.
The good news is the risk of a heart attack can be reduced by regular physical activity, though a small risk does apply to everyone, even the healthiest of gym bunnies.
"Regular physical activity has been identified as strongly associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease and related mortality," the researchers at Tufts and Harvard Universities in Boston wrote.
"Despite the well-established benefits of regular physical activity, anecdotal evidence has suggested that physical activity, as well as other acute exposures, such as sexual activity and psychological stress, can act as triggers of acute cardiac events."

I guess you need to work out solo until you get a partner. Spanking one off could save your life!

My girlfriend showed me an article in Cosmo on 77 sex positions. The writer told her boyfriend she had to submit the article to be published in three months. I'll bet he didn't mind his girfriend bringing her work home and staying up late working hard.

Seeing as everyone just wants to tip-toe around it, I'll take the plunge. Just go ahead and RUB ONE OUT once a day, twice if you're feeling particularly randy.

Sex may feel exciting but from all the studies I've seen it doesn't really compare to even to normal physical exercize. You'd have to be extremely unhealthy (extremely), or extremely old and infirm to have sudden death as one of the risks of intercourse.
Unless you have an aneurysm or something strangely exotic...

Well Ive gone almost an entire year without sex, though I have been taking a martial arts class for the last two months, so I think I will be alright. If not, dying while having sex is on my list of "favorable ways to die" :P

Keep your testosterone level up gents. Low T is no way to be. And if
you think the adage " Life is hard... then you die " is an exaggeration,
consider: The bone yard is even harder than having a hard on. Those
residents are experiencing permanent rigor mortis. Don't loose your
sense of humor either. Ladies worth having tend to fancy that too. - 1 year ago
