AKA the Coital Alignment Technique is a great one to start with as it’s not hugely different to missionary.

Men’s Health talk us through it here: “Start in missionary position and shift your body up and over to one side. Rock forward and back instead of thrusting up and down to help you maintain direct contact with her clitoris”

Why try it?

The CAT position increases clitoral stimulation which is a very good thing indeed.

*disclaimer, lubricant is a good idea for any and all enthused sex positions. Read why here.

If you haven’t tried this one then bump it to the top of your list. Why? It’s easy and so intimate.

Here’s how to do it: Provided your partner is male, have him lean with his back against a wall in a ‘wall sit’ position. The woman then straddles him, face forward, allowing full and deep penetration.

Why try it?

This is a step towards a full standing position but less challenging. It allows for deep penetration and keeps the man’s hands free to cup, caress, explore.

This one involves using a clitoral vibrator but it’s so worth buying one if you don’t own one already.

Cosmo talk us through how to do the Backward Swoon: “Prop your hips up on your partner’s legs so it’s almost like they’re wheelbarrowing you with your back on the bed. Have them enter you holding your hips for leverage while you use a vibrator on your clit. You’ve both got a great view, and the angle makes things super intense.”

Why try it?

It’s never too late to introduce sex toys into your relationship and this position combines an intimate, loving, penetrative experience with the added bonus of a buzz.

The Prop Engine also involves a sex toy, using a vibrator to solve the age old question of ‘how do I get pleasure when I’m giving a blow job?’.

Cosmo describe the position: “Sandwich a large vibrator between the box springs of your mattress or the frame of your couch. You can grind up against it while on your knees when you’re giving him a BJ.”

Why try it?

Achieve orgasm while giving him a blow job? What a happy coupling.

First things first though, shop the right vibrator.

The Gift Wrap is a relaxed, incredibly intimate position with a few tweaks to make sure you both enjoy it completely.

Men’s Health explain how to do it: “Both of you lie on your sides facing one another. The woman bends and spreads her legs, and angles her vagina toward the man. The man lifts his legs between hers to enter while she wraps her legs around his back.”

Why try it?

This position is easy, not too physically challenging but with your legs wrapped around him you’ll find new depths of penetration as well as an intimate closeness from the increased body-to-body contact.

The g-spot jiggy will lead you towards the famed, and often illusive, g-spot orgasm.

Follow Cosmo’s guide and try it as soon as possible: “Get down on all fours with your man kneeling behind you and have him plunge inside you, grabbing your rear for balance. A little firm, well-placed stroking of your G-spot can open up a whole new orgasmic world. If he’s the exploring kind, encourage him to thrust far enough inside you so that his testicles hit your body.”
