Pornhub’s ‘BangFit’ wants you to F*** your way into shape — 80s style


Pornhub’s ‘BangFit’ wants you to F*** your way into shape — 80s style

Pornhub — the porn site that recently ruined the taco emoji for you — today announced its solution to the growing obesity epidemic: ‘BangFit.’

“Today, due to our hectic work schedules and lack of motivation, many of us do not receive regular amounts of physical activity and lead sedentary lifestyles,” said Corey Price, VP Pornhub.

“Here at Pornhub, we know from experience that there’s one activity people are always motivated to do and one for which they are never too busy. That’s getting busy. That’s why we came up with BangFit, which gamifies sex and encourages users to pump while they hump. Think of it as the Wii Fit for sex. Now users can shred in bed and enjoy some stimulating sexercise.”

BangFit is essentially a gamified workout regimen that features rather unique positions like the “squat and thrust” and “missionary press” — both of which sound like a lot more fun than hitting the gym.

To take part, you simply grab your smartphone, sync it to the program and attach it to your hips (to use the built in gyro and accelerometer) with an adjustable band (available on the site) or a DIY solution. From there, BangFit monitors your activity and awards you a performance rating — like “you’re the gymnastiest” or “you’re fit as fuck” — in typical Pornhub fashion. To achieve higher ratings, you’ll have to  make your sexercise routine last longer, and try to adhere to the movements as closely as possible.

For those ‘working out’ solo, Pornhub has you covered. The app can be used by yourself, with a partner (just select the sex) or with a trio of users in case that’s how you get down.
