If you are looking for a mind-blowing, bed-rattling orgasm, try to keep it simple. Wild and crazy might sound pleasurable but the key is in keeping it simple.

“Trying to accomplish complicated acrobatics distracts you from the sex itself, putting your focus on how you can contort yourself, rather than on just experiencing the sensations,” advises Dorian Solot, sex educator and co-author of I (Heart) Female Orgasm. The simplest positions are known to give the most intense orgasms, and with a little creativity, you can make them better.

Below are 9 sex positions for a great orgasm:

Sex position #1: Modified Missionary Style

You’ll never see missionary position the same way again.

From the regular missionary position, place a pillow under your butt and lift your hips. Raise your legs toward your shoulders to create room for deeper penetration. This position also allows him to thrust better and easily stimulate your G-spot. However, this is considered a mere warm-up position.

Once he has stroked your G-spot enough, revert to coital-alignment-technique (CAT) position.

“He’s on top, but he lifts his pelvic bone upward, aligning it with your clitoris,” says sex therapist Gloria Brame, PhD. “Then he rocks against the area until you peak.” “The legs-up position is a slow burn that brings you to the brink and increases sensitivity. Then the addition of clitoral rubbing takes you over the edge in a bigger way than if you had done CAT alone,” adds Brame.

Sex position # 2: Modified doggie-style

 

The doggie-style position has great benefits, but you’ll need to make some modifications in order to make it actually orgasmic. Lie on your stomach, but slightly lift your for him to make a penetration. He needs to be in a push-up position or lie on top of you as shown below:

As he thrusts, this position will allow for increased friction which leads to an orgasm. For an intense orgasm, take advantage of the facedown position and try stroking your clitoral area gently or grinding it against the bed.

Sex position #3: Legs over hips

The twisting and bending that goes on during sex makes it feel more like a cardio workout than a pleasure fest. That’s why one relaxed orgasm—inducing position is always welcome. Lie on your back and let him to lie on his side, turned toward you. Curl your legs over his hips and thighs, and let him gently thrust into you.

This position allows you to enjoy sex for longer by putting the orgasm on hold. If you are taking longer to climax, try touching yourself or ask for his help in stimulating the clit.

Sex position #4: Girl-on-top

Girl-on-top allows you to control the pace and depth of thrusting while allowing him to stimulate your clitoris. You can run against his pelvic bone for faster orgasm. If you want to achieve an intense orgasm, try touching your G-spot or pull a 180.

 

Twist around so you’re pointed toward his feet in reverse cowgirl position. Putting your legs together will make you tighter, giving more intense sensations and increased G-spot stimulation.

Sex Position #5: Tabletop sex

Sometimes, explosive orgasms happen outside the bedroom. You need a kitchen table as high as his waist. Lie down on the table with your butt near the edge, as he stands between your legs. You can rest your feet on his shoulders or on the edge of the table.

Let him hold on to your hips for leverage or stroke your body for more stimulation. This position also allows him to touch your clitoris, unobstructed.

Sex position #7: Face-to-face

 

This one’s always a favorite for lovers of slow and intimate sex. He sits and you straddle him, giving you control over the speed, angle, and motion. You can kiss, touch or use your arms and legs to maneuver. Avoid moving up and down, as this can be tiring for you. For better stimulation try swaying back or forth or rubbing your clitoral area against him for greater G-spot stimulation. This position also gives him the opportunity to access your breasts for a better sexual experience.

Sex position #8: C-Ring

There’s no configuration that’s more snuggly than the C-Ring. Lie on your side, with your guy gently thrusting against the front wall of your vagina from behind.

This position not only helps fulfil your cuddly needs but also provides consistent stimulation to your G-spot.
