Intensify Your Orgasms

There’s nothing so wonderful as an orgasm... unless, of course, it’s an intensified orgasm! However easily and quickly you climax, there are lots of ways to make it longer – and stronger – both for him and for her.

Do your exercises
For him and her, strong PC (pubococcygeus) muscles mean better orgasms – strengthen them by doing ‘Kegel’ exercises. (Find the muscles that come into play when you pee, squeeze, then relax – aim for 50 times, twice a day.)

Use tingle cream
The new generation of stimulant creams show some evidence of not just feeling good, but actively re-sensitising your genitals – look for packaging that claims to heighten sensation (and so heightening orgasm.)

Add in more stimulation
Whatever you do to reach climax, do more of it – perhaps extra movement, a faster pace, deeper kissing, touching more than one erogenous zone at once, hitting the G spot (hers or his). And stimulate all your senses – not just touch – with background music, wonderful smells and tastes. 

Take it slowly
The longer you take to reach orgasm, so the theory goes, the better the end result. So rather than heading straight for the end point, take hours to gently work your way up; fantasy at breakfast, a little masturbation in the afternoon, then long slow lovemaking at night. 

Change the rhythm
Proceed as normal but as you near climax, pause just for a moment – a heartbeat – to come back from the edge. Let the sensations die away a little, then resume again and again. By creating more build-up of body fluids and muscle tension, there’s more release at climax.

Tense up completely
As you reach the peak clench every muscle. Or relax completely – as you reach the peak simply stop moving and concentrate on the sensations. By breaking your normal pattern of orgasm, you’ll nudge your body into reacting more strongly.

And finally… make it one way
Often what holds you back from the fullest possible orgasm is the fact that you have to consider your partner - which is absolutely the way it should be most of the time in loving, sharing sex. But just occasionally let one of you take all the pleasure so you can concentrate on yourself alone…
