"You could even annoy your friends by sharing it on social media, just like any other fitness routine" <3.

Two most annoying things on Facebook: baby pictures and people spamming their Endomondo scores.

This... this is literally a bad joke. But hey, on the bright side, Randall will finally be able to track sex as excercise (https://xkcd.com/940/).

I don't get it, is this like Guitar Hero where you rack up points while... "air banging"? Or are you actually supposed to find a partner and then... what? This article is severely lacking in details/diagrams.

> I also can’t seem to figure out if this thing supports gay and lesbian couples.

I laughed.

Well it's a wriststrap so they can have either a gyroscope that measures your gyrating, or a heart rate monitor.

Considering they have different types of exercises for 1 player and more it's possible a gyroscope would measure the specific movement you're doing with your wrist, and the heart rate monitor would monitor your supposed fat burn.

I hope pornhup aren't expecting too much from this service.

Fitbit already had this functionality 5 years ago (and had to rush to de-index it): http://techcrunch.com/2011/07/03/sexual-activity-tracked-by-...

> Users can pop their phone into the BangFit Band (a belt worn by one player) to measure their success in getting fit while getting busy.

Wow... passion killer or what?!

...so the thing about 'marriage' is....

LFG on Tinder: "need partner for bangfit team"

I tried it..by shaking my phone for awhile like an idiot. They sure get points for creativity.

I can already see the Internet fill up with Bangometer stats like the number of followers.

Pairing gets a new meaning!
