Wanting Better Sex? Try Special Stretches!

Stretching often will give you the flexibility to vary positions and stay comfortable during sex. There are a few quick stretches that you can do just a few times a week before you make love that will make a real difference!

Groin Stretches:
This is specifically helpful for women because the muscles in the hips and around the pelvis need to stay flexible. To keep them loose, lie on your back with the soles of your feet together, knees bent and out to each side. Pull your heels toward your groin. Now, let your knees slowly drop toward the bed or floor. To help them along, you can put your hands on your inner thighs and apply slight downward pressure. Hold the stretch for thirty seconds. To help your husband stretch his groin muscles, kneel facing your mate as he sits in front of you on the floor or bed, your knees barely touching the tops of his ankles to keep them from moving. Now, put your hands on either side of his inner thighs, just above his knees, and apply downward pressure until he feels the stretch in his hips and groin. His knees may move slightly downward but it shouldn't hurt. Have him hold the stretch for thirty seconds.

Quad Stretches:
Whether it's you or your husband, the partner who takes the top position needs strong, flexible muscles on the fronts of the thighs. To stretch these muscles, kneel on a bed or the floor, with your thighs perpendicular to it. Your legs should be shoulder-width apart, toes pointed behind you, hands positioned in front of your thighs. Lean backward slowly until you feel the stretch in the front of your thighs and in your ankles. HOld for about fifteen to twenty seconds, repeat two or three times.

Lower Back Stretches:
If you have back troubles, these stretches will benefit you the most. Lie on your back. Hold the back of your bend left knee with your left hand and pull your knee toward your chest. Hold the stretch for thirty seconds. Switch legs and repeat. Now do both legs at the same time. Be careful to let your legs down easily.
