Top 10 Sex Positions for a Steamy Workout

If you're smart and sexually active, tapping your sex life as a workout is the greatest hack. According to LELO's research, sex-ercise is the right method for summertime prep and pleasure.

Coming in hot as the top sex position for burning calories is the hilariously named "Butter Churner." If you're unfamiliar with this position, it starts in the usual missionary position. But instead of penetrating in-and-out, the penis owner on top squats down into the vulva. Second on the list of best sex workouts is the "Standing" position which is, you guessed it, sex standing up.

As LELO's CMO, Luka Matutinović, comments, "Exploring new positions can benefit the sexual experience for both partners. However, it's important to consider each individual's physical abilities and comfort level." Remember, it's not about burning the most calories -- it's about living the healthiest, most pleasure-filled life.

On that note, practice safety during sex by one, opting for protection in the form of condoms and other barriers. And two, not overexerting yourselves. "For example, the Butter Churner, known for its high-calorie burn, demands flexibility and strength from both individuals involved. Communication is key to making sure that both partners are comfortable and physically capable of engaging in those types of sexual activities.”
