"Ninety-eight percent of Karelis’s volunteers reported that sex felt more fun than jogging. The other 2 percent, I suspect, will be back in the dating market soon."
"Then the scientists sent the couples home, instructing them to complete at least one sex act a week for a month while wearing the armbands" - so weekly sex and being paid to do it, there should be more tests like these everywhere.
Their procedure seemed a little lacking too. They measured jogging on a treadmill in the lab, then fitted them with 'unobtrusive armband' monitors. Does that measure the same thing as the lab equipment? Why not just use the armbands when on the treadmill, to get a comparable measurement?
Also, people doing Anything while others are watching, do it more deliberately than when private. So they only have conclusions about the activity level when wearing an armband, and while planning what to write in your journal afterward.

also would be fun to have a second life /mmo type game where characters had substantially the same stats and skills as the players.
In addition: What, other than the word 'sex' in the title, is interesting about this article? It seems superficial and .. lacking?
