Top 5 Sex Positions To Cut Calories : Male On Male Version
Best sex positions for burning calories: male on male version Why go to the gym when you can workout at home? I'm not talking about running on that treadmill you invested in or engaging in exercises with those weird over the door contraptions. I'm talking about getting fit the old fashioned way, with sex! When it comes to burning calories during coitus, you don't have to work through the Kama Sutra, but there are positions that will give you more bang...for your bang! All of the positions below burn more than 100 calories in 30 minutes making them just as good as a quick trip to the gym!
Doggystyle
Doggy Style is a favorite position for many! The standard doggy style position will have the receiver activating their core to keep themselves stabilized. The giver will feel the burn in their quads and glutes from keeping the rhythm with their thrusts. Alternatives include planking or placing your arms on the wall and pushing back against your partner to activate shoulders and the upper body overall.
Muscles worked: core, arms, quadriceps, shoulders, and hamstrings
Crouching Cowboy
In the spirit of equality, let's go ahead and change cowgirl to cowboy position! In this position, it's the guy on top who benefits the most when it comes to burning calories. By crouching instead of kneeling you will activate tons of muscles in your legs and will feel the familiar burn of a perfect workout in no time. Alternatives include crabwalk cowboy, placing your arms behind you and to either side of your partner or reverse cowboy, facing the opposite direction.
Muscles worked: hamstrings, quadriceps, glutes, calves, and core.
The Wheelbarrow
Both partners benefit from a full body workout in the wheelbarrow position. The lifter gets an especially great arm workout by holding their partner's legs while the "wheelbarrow" has to support their weight under the pressure of their partner's thrust. This one is not for the faint of heart as the workout potential here is immense! If you are looking for a challenge try walking with your partner during sex. Not only does it make for an exciting time in the bedroom but it increases the caloric burn!
Muscles worked: chest, core, calves, hamstrings, quads, biceps, traps and shoulders.
The Bridge
A calorie burner for yoga enthusiast, the bridge is a balancing act that triggers several muscle groups during your sexual escapades. One partner acts as the bridge, lifting their weight off the ground while the other sits on top. Supporting both you and your partner's weight is bound to burn a ton of calories. Maintaining your balance as the bridge will help activate the core and needless to say, arms and legs are also active during the lifting in this position.
Muscles worked: full body
Missionary
We bet you are surprised to see missionary on this list! What you put in is what you get out when it comes to the missionary position. A lazy romp in the sheets won't burn many calories but if both you and your partner give it all you've got the potential for calorie loss is limitless! The person on top will always burn more calories, but an easy way to up your workout on the bottom is to thrust in unison with your partner which requires core activation and stabilization.
Muscles worked: core, upper body, glutes
