10 best sex positions for weight loss

Losing weight having sex, seem too good to be true but sex can actually burn calories and tighten muscles if done on a regular basis. Sex makes you sweat and some sexual positions demand a lot from certain muscle groups! If you skip your cardio for the day, get erotic and experience the health benefits of sex internally and externally. Here are some facts that support the idea that sex should be the next exercise craze for weight loss.

Calories count
To lose weight you must burn more calories than you eat. The best way to burn calories is by exercising. If you have ever ended up sweaty and winded after sex, you've probably just spent a substantial amount of calories. In fact, just a half-hour of vigorous sex can burn from 150--350 calories. This is the same as taking a fast walk, lifting weights or jogging for the same amount of time. An hour of very active sex burns the same amount of calories that are in a Big Mac. So, an overindulgence can be rectified by a little time with your partner.
Boosting Self Esteem
According to research sex may boost your self esteem enough to help you lose weight. A boost in self esteem raises serotonin levels in your brain. This is the hormone that helps you stop eating when you are full. The more of the hormone you have, the less likely you are to overeat.

Kissing
Foreplay through kissing can burn quite a bit of calories. A 150 pound person can burn up to 18 calories every 15 minutes by kissing. So, just an extra 30 minutes of kissing before getting to the deed can burn an extra 36 calories.

Lifting

Sex can also incorporate weight lifting if done creatively. Lifting your partner and raising your own body weight with your arms and legs can build muscle. More muscle burns more calories.

Timings

So, as you can see, timing is everything. To burn calories, and ultimately lose weight, you need to stretch sex out into more than a quickie. While morning “quickies” may be fun and spontaneous, to get weight loss benefits from sex, you have to invest the time you would in a typical cardiovascular workout at the gym. Fox News suggests 30-minute sex sessions with your spouse, citing that you could burn up 200 calories per session. Adding more foreplay to the act increases the calorie burn even more.

How to lose weight with sex
Sex is hot! If you're bored with the gym and at-home workout DVDs just don't keep you motivated, take advantage of a weight loss routine that keeps you in your bed, snuggled with your spouse a little longer. Sex is celebrated as a great way to lose weight and stay fit. In fact, studies show that when aroused, a person's pulse rate can reach that of an athlete giving his all, ranging from about 70 to 150 beats per minute. 

Just like with any workout routine, adding variety can maximize results and keep you engaged, and the same applies to sex. Avoid the same boring routines because, it can get dull and leave you less than excited about sex with your spouse. Here are some good positions to enjoy an awesome sex thriller and lose weight.

Sex Positions That Double as Exercise

1) Standing
Lack of space and privacy means getting naughty in a closet or staircase. But doing it standing has several fitness benefits for different muscle groups. This sexual position builds your core muscles and improves your leg muscles too. The girl can flex her muscles and improve arm strength as she latches onto the man. This exercise needs a lot of stamina.

2) Lotus
Though it may seem like an easy sexual position, the lotus position improves your glutes and core. The lotus position also makes it intimate as you and your partner are facing each other.

3) Doggy style
This is one of the popular sexual positions for a man and a woman. It stimulates both the sexes immediately; doggy style stimulates a woman’s G-spot and pumps up a guy’s member. Doggy style strengthens a woman’s core, quadriceps and glutes. As for guys the quads and the core too are exercised.

4) Cowgirl
Cowgirl is one the favourite positions for women as they are in command of their body and their sexual experience. Cowgirl flexes lower abs, pelvic muscles and calves – cowgirl serves as a great exercise to build stamina and the leg muscles.

5) Scissors
Scissor position is recommended for pregnant women; it is a slow penetration and is not that tiring. But the scissor position uses your inner thigh muscles and the core due to lack of movement in this sexual position.

6) Bridge
You need to be fit to flex your muscles in this sexual position. The bridge position is demanding for women, she has to hold with her arms and legs, and her body has to be parallel to the bed. The bridge position exercises the biceps, triceps, abs, quads and glutes.

7) Arch
This sexual position is a good way to reach orgasm in a woman. For a woman, arch position exercises the core muscles and the legs – glutes and quads. Arch position is a lot more of an exercise than the bridge position.

8) Wheelbarrow
You can burn up to 100 calories with this position. Wheelbarrow sexual position strengthens the arms of the woman and for the man too. A man also uses his leg muscles to support the girl and also uses his core muscles.

9) Missionary
This position is beneficial for: Butt muscles: When you clinch the butt muscles.
Core muscles: By lifting your pelvic and not your lower back, you are using the core muscles.

10) Lunge
It may seem complicated but lunge is a good way to exercise and improve flexibility. Here the woman is on top of the man with one leg ahead of him and the other leg is extended behind her. Lunges as a sexual position are a good way to exercise the butt, core muscles, quads and hamstrings.

Enjoy a Healthy Diet
What you eat has an impact on your energy level and can affect your stamina and endurance in the bedroom. For maximum energy and to make the most out of your bedroom workout routine, enjoy a diet rich in fruits, vegetables and protein. You can also include
 chocolate, honey, oysters and garlic in your diet for a spicier sex life.
