Yes, sex is a great body exercise that helps with burning calories. How many calories sex can burn depends on the type of sex position and the intensity, duration and speed.
For example, a woman in a more physically challenging sex position like Squat or Cowgirl will burn way more calories (200 calories and more) than in a Spooning sex position that doesn't require too much physical intensity.
If you want to analyze your fitness data with more accuracy, including calorie burning, in that case, we recommend wearing one of the fitness gadgets, whether it's a ring, bracelet, or a watch, to see how many calories your bedroom exercise generates.
The best sex positions are those sex positions that deliver the most sexual satisfaction.
The best sex position from the men's perspective is, for example, a doggy style or reverse cowgirl; aside from physical stimulation, these positions also provide visual stimulation, which is very sexually stimulating for men (see the images above).
The best sex position for a woman is, for example, the missionary sex position (see above), with face-to-face contact, avoking closeness and intimacy while offering physical stimulation of the vagina and clitoris.
Placing a pillow under to elevate the woman's pelvis intensifies her sexual pleasure due to an increased blood flow and the man's ability to thrust his penis into the vagina from a variety of angles.
Some sex positions can create more stimulation of a penis and, as a result, help to speed up the time to ejaculate. Suppose premature ejaculation is a problem a man is dealing with. In that case, he should experiment with trying sex positions that are less stimulating and where he is in control of the pace and level of stimulation.
