Best Sex Positions for Building & Maintaining Stamina

by Trish Murray 29 Jul 2025 0 Comments

As Orgasm Day is upon us, you may want a quick ‘Wham, Bam, Thank You Ma'am’, but you might be after something longer and more fulfilling!

So, let’s focus on sexual positions that help with stamina. Whether that's lasting longer, pacing yourself, or avoiding overstimulation, the key is control, rhythm, and reducing excessive pressure on sensitive areas.

Here’s a list of sex positions that promote better stamina with explanations:

1. Spooning

  • Why it helps stamina: Slow, controlled thrusts; less intense stimulation. 
  • Pro tip: Focus on sensual movement, not speed. It also allows for whispering and deeper breathing, which helps control arousal. 
  • Bonus: Low physical exertion makes it sustainable over time.

2. Cowgirl (Partner on Top)

  • Why it helps stamina: Your partner controls the pace, letting you focus on staying relaxed.
  • Pro tip: Ask for slower grinding rather than bouncing to decrease overstimulation.
  • Bonus: Great for eye contact and pacing your breathing.

3. Missionary (Slow Tempo)

  • Why it helps stamina: Easily controlled pace and depth. You set the rhythm. 
  • Pro tip: Pause periodically and vary thrusting speed to avoid getting too close too quickly.
  • Variation: Try “eye-gazing” or holding still inside them for a few seconds if you’re near the edge.

4. Lotus Position (Sitting Face to Face)

  • Why it helps stamina: Intimate and slow, focusing on connection rather than intensity. 
  • Pro tip: Use deep, slow movements and sync with your partner’s breathing.
  • Bonus: Ideal for tantric sex or meditative focus.

5. Standing (with Support)

  • Why it helps stamina: It requires coordination and balance, which slows things down naturally. 
  • Pro tip: Use a wall or table for support; avoid rapid thrusts.
  • Bonus: Great for changing tempo mid-session without losing rhythm.

6. Seated Edge (Partner Sitting on Edge of Bed/Chair)

  • Why it helps stamina: Encourages shallow, slower strokes while maintaining full connection. 
  • Pro tip: Keep your feet flat for stability and lean in close to reduce energy expenditure.
  • Variation: Switch to oral breaks to prolong the session.

7. Modified Doggy (One Knee Down, One Leg Up)

  • Why it helps stamina: This slower version reduces pounding motion, offering more control. 
  • Pro tip: Don’t go deep every time—mix up shallow and deep thrusts to stay in control.
  • Bonus: Strong G-spot stimulation for your partner without overwhelming you.

8. Yab-Yum (Tantric Sitting Position)

  • Why it helps stamina: Designed for slow, conscious thrusting and mutual breathwork. 
  • Pro tip: Focus on connection and timing your breaths—this delays ejaculation.
  • Best for: Practising mindfulness and energetic connection during sex.

General tips to boost stamina in any position:

  • Breathe deeply and slowly — this helps reduce arousal spikes.
  • Switch positions often — keeps stimulation fresh and gives micro-rests.
  • Use the “stop-start” method — pause when you're close and resume when ready.
  • Pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises — strengthen control over ejaculation.
  • Edge regularly during masturbation — builds awareness of arousal levels

And to the extra help that may be needed, below are some recommended product types that will help with Stamina & Comfort

  • Silicone-based: Long-lasting, ideal for water play.
