Definition of orgasm. : intense or paroxysmal excitement; especially : the rapid pleasurable release of neuromuscular tensions at the height of sexual arousal that is usually accompanied by the ejaculation of semen in the male and by vaginal contractions in the female.
The group (10 men and women) burned an average of 411 calories during the Body Pump session, and 483 and 339 when separated into men and women. This comes to 7 calories per minute for the group, and 8 and 6 calories per minute for the men and women, respectively. Taking the results from both studies, women can expect to burn anywhere between 5-6 calories per minute during a typical Body Pump class. Men will burn somewhere between 6 and 8 calories per minute.
For example, a 150-pound person burns about 240 calories cycling at a moderate intensity for 30 minutes; a 200-pound person burns about 320 calories under the same conditions. The length of the class plays a role in your caloric expenditure. The longer the class, the more calories you will burn. For example, a 180-pound person burns about 570 calories in 60 minutes at a moderate intensity. If the class is 90 minutes, this person would burn about 860 calories. The intensity of the class is going to make a difference in your caloric expenditure. Simply put, the higher the intensity, the more calories you will burn. A 200-pound person burns about 500 calories in 60 minutes at a light intensity. This same person burns about 1,130 calories in 60 minutes at a very vigorous intensity.
