No wonder she is smiling, findings published recent by the University of Indiana’s Center for Sexual Health Promotion (I’m sure British universities don’t have such interesting faculties) have confirmed that women can, and frequently do, have orgasms during exercise.
Dubbed a coregasm because of its association with core muscle exercises, it is more academically described as an Exercise Induced Orgasm (EIO) or its less bench-shaking cousin Exercise Induced Sexual Pleasure (EISP). It only took the researchers five weeks to recruit over 500 women who had experienced one or both of them, which suggests that it is hardly a rare occurrence.
It seems to be especially common during abdominal and leg exercises, but why they happen is a matter of opinion. One theory I have read is that crunches, for example, stimulate the diaphragm, which in turn stimulates the vagus nerve that runs through the pelvis. Another is that movements involving quads or inner thighs lead to a continuous squeezing of the pelvic muscles until… BOOM!
And apparently, all it takes for women who haven’t experienced EIO or EISP, all it takes is a few more reps. One respondent reported that On my third set of 15 reps, if I crank out a few more and go to 20, well, yeah, I can have an orgasm!
Whenever I either do hanging leg raises or knee-ups, I get the best coregasm a girl could dream of. I’m guessing it happens due to activation of the Kegel muscles in conjunction with friction from moving your legs up and down. Either way, I don’t care why it happens, but just am happy it does. What a great motivator to do these exercises!
Seriously, us chaps may well be declared redundant one day soon. This is just another nail in our collective coffin. But in the meantime, it’s also a great argument to get your lady into the gym and cranking out those extra reps. Why not enjoy ourselves while we're still allowed to?
And best of all, it could bring the gym to your bed. One woman held a leg and shoulder lift during sex and reported that it intensified the pulsing, and the same woman (there is one seriously happy guy somewhere in Oklahoma) reported using a vibrator while exercising at home to vamp up the intensity. Wow.
So, the next time you see a lady’s legs shaking after giving her all to a set of squats, she may just have done a few extra. And if you want to keep your woman regular at the gym, get her to focus on her core muscles, and remind her to give those pelvic muscles a good squeeze on every last rep.
