The best classes youll ever have
wise man never stops learning. Hes always curious about the latest trend, the newest technology, the Next Big Thing...even in bed. After all, a thousand tips and tactics have been developed since you and your girlfriend first did the mystery dance in the back of your Subaru. Problem is, unlike in high school, you and your buddies probably arent comparing notes and sharing insider secrets anymore. Thats too bad, because theres much more to learn. So take a look at our enticing curriculum. Study hard and we guarantee that, in her eyes, the Next Big Thing that comes along will be...you.

SCHOOL OF GEOGRAPHICAL STUDIES

Conquering mountains, exploring valleys, preserving wetlands 101: Find the secret of her twin peaks. Austrian researchers have found that an oft-neglected region of the breast, the northern part from roughly 10 oclock to 2 oclock, provides even more arousal than her nipples. Investigate with light kissing and a gentle massage using the heel of your hand, not the fingers. The palm gives even sensation without causing pain. 201: Point your compass toward her true north. Even if you find yourself upside down and disoriented during sex (happens to us all the time), you can always stay on course by trying to point the tip of your penis toward the inside of her belly button. The way her vagina is positioned, if you do that youll be close to her G-spotthe bundle of nerves that serves as a catalyst for orgasms.

SCHOOL OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION

For those who want to work up a good sweat 101: Exercise your right to more sex. We didnt like gym class any more than you did. The good news: Your spontaneous erections in the shower will get a better response now than they did then. But before you lather up, work out. A University of California study shows that men who exercise 3 days a week have three times more sexand better sexthan those who dont. 201: To extend your manhood, drop the Chalupa. You know extra weight is bad for your heart, but it also shortens your penisyou lose a half inch for every 15 pounds you gain. Heres why: The fat pad that protects your pubic area creeps over the shafts base as you get fatter, obscuring perfectly good penis. A better diet and more exercise means more where it counts, too.

SCHOOL OF PSYCHOLOGY

Explore her deeply hidden desires. Couch optional 101: Master her mind games. In a recent survey, women admitted fantasizing about sex up to twice as often as men do. So how come shes not constantly jumping your bones? Because unlike your fantasies, hers are lengthy, interactive scenarios, says Karen Donahey, Ph.D., assistant professor in the

psychology and behavioral sciences department at Northwestern University. You can get more action simply by giving her a scenario to spin. Toss her a line like this at lunch: If anybody would look amazing in a French maids outfit, its you, and you up your chances of her breaking out the feather duster after dinner. 201: Hypnotize her with your eyes. Want to drive her wild with desire? Look her straight in the eye during sex. Add in a little play-by-play of the action and solicit her opinion, too. The combination of eye contact and dialoguethat direct connection during sexis an incredible turn-on for women.

SCHOOL OF NATURAL SCIENCES

Better living through sexual chemistry and quantum physicals 101: Tantalize her with chemistry. You love it when she gives you oral sex with a breath mint in her mouth. Heres why: The mucous membranes that line your penis let mint pass through, giving you a cool thrill. But did you know that popping a curiously strong mint while youre giving her oral sex can lead to a curiously strong orgasm? Note to the wise: Peppermint oil can sting her. Stick to the original wintergreen flavor. 201: Defy gravity with your genitals. Just before ejaculation, your testicles ascend like an aircrafts landing gear to provide more power to your takeoff. To give your equipment an even bigger boost, have your partner gently press upward on your testicles with the palm of her hand just before you ejaculate. This will heighten your arousal and add intensity to your orgasm, according to Bob Schwartz, Ph.D., author of The One-Hour Orgasm. 301: Make her adore a vacuum. Next time youre, you know, yodeling in the gully, dont just lick, the way most guys do. Sucking on her clitoris and labia creates a unique feeling, and when contrasted with the usual friction can lead to more and better orgasms, says Schwartz. This technique is better for you, tooyoull get fewer tongue cramps.

SCHOOL OF MATHEMATICS
Calculating moves for impressive figures 101: Count on yourself to last longer. To increase your controland keep your climax at bayuse a technique called peaking. As youre thrusting, rate your arousal on a scale of 1 to 10. When it builds to 3 or 4, slow down and take deep breaths until it diminishes. Then let your arousal build to 5 or 6, and back off again. Do this until you can reach 8 or 9 before climaxing. 201: Multiply your satisfaction. The usual Saturday-night equation is You + Her = 1 (orgasm). For better sex, try multiplying your orgasms. You can train yourself to be multiorgasmic, but it involves practicing through masturbation. (Hey, math can be fun!) Build yourself up to the brink of orgasm, then throttle back. Do this three times before climaxing. A little practice and youll be able to feel the orgasmracing pulse, waves of euphoria and relaxationwithout ejaculating. Not only does it reduce the messy cleanup, but youll remain erect and ready for more action. Good luck. Please resist the urge to write us and tell us how its going.

Build Stronger Erections!

Men might think they only need one thing in order to have an erection: a penis. In fact, a recent Italian study shows that the strength of the muscles surrounding your penis may also play a part. When researchers studied the strength of two pelvic-area muscles in 390 men, they found that potent guys were 17 percent stronger than the guys who had trouble with erections. These muscles squeeze the two blood-filled erection tubes in the penis. The stronger these muscles are, the more pressure theyll create in the erection, says Gregory A. Broderick, M.D., a Mayo Clinic urologist. By simply squeezing and releasing the muscles you use to stop urination, you can train these muscles to get stronger. So do it often, and for best results, ask her to give you a hand.

Rock Star Sex Positions Shell forget youre just a banker when you rock her world with these six
movesguaranteed to stimulate her in all the right places. Some may seem familiar at first glance, but pay close attention to the details. These are variations we bet youve never seen before.

FLAT REAR ENTRY

How to do it: She lies facedown on the bed with her pelvis slightly raised. She can use a pillow for support. You enter her vagina from behind. Difficulty (on a scale of 1 to 10): 4 Payoff: 8 Youve heard about the G-spot? This is one of the best ways to go after it, says Mark L. Elliott, Ph.D., of the Institute for Psychological and Sexual Health. The downward angle of entry will target the elusive but highly sensitive dimesize spot inside the front wall of her vagina. And because the padding on her butt is blocking at least part of your access, youll have shallow penetration, so you wont pass the G-spot by. (Tell your partner not to be discouraged if this doesnt feel great at first. Elliott says the friction on the G-spot may cause discomfort before it turns to pleasure.) This is also a tight position, which creates extra pressure on the clitoris, and its one of the few rear-entry positions that put your heads together, allowing snuggling and kissing. Whats in it for you: If she keeps her legs together, shell have a tight grip on your penis, which should more than make up for the lack of depth.

END TO END
How to do it: You lie on your back; she lies on her side facing you and slides onto your erection. Difficulty: 5 Payoff: 7 Youll be amazed to discover how well your bodies fit together in this position. It didnt seem like it was going to be intimate, but it was. We fit

together like puzzle pieces, reported our female tester. Whats more, youll sense a good, deep connection, and your partner will have enough flexibility to stimulate whichever areas need it most. Whats in it for you: When the penis is pushed down, it creates friction on the top of the head, giving you a different sensation than youre probably used to. But be warned that some erections (especially among younger guys) wont be flexible enough for this to work. Never force your penis in a direction it doesnt want to go.

THE X POSITION
How to do it: You sit on the bed with your legs in front of you; she straddles your torso. Difficulty: 3 Payoff: 7 This position allows more gentle rocking than in-and-out thrustinga change shell love. Guys dont like to hear this, but a lot of women find powerful thrusting distracting and simply prefer to be filled up while they concentrate on stimulating the clitoris, says Louanne Cole Weston, Ph.D., a sex therapist in Fair Oaks, CA. To make this position really rock, hold hands with each other and lean back so youre connected only at the hands and genitals. Concentrate on wriggling the base of your penis against the upper part of her vaginal opening, grinding against her clitoris. Whats in it for you: Since theres little steady motion to wear you out and only moderate stimulation to the head of your penis, you should be able to last longer than usual. Once shes had her fun, switch to a position that hits you in the right spots.

THE HOT SEAT

How to do it: You sit on the bed with your back against the headboard. She slides on top of your erection, with her feet by your ears and her hands on either your legs or the bed behind her. Difficulty: 5 Payoff: 6 Since youre supporting her entire weight on your lap, itll be up to her to provide the motion by using her arms to push up off of you. That can be a little tricky, but once shes used to it, the result is deep penetration that not only feels great but looks great. Both of us had a terrific view of the action, one tester reported. It also leaves your hands free to help out with additional clitoral stimulation, should she want it. Try using the palm of your hand to rub in circular motions along her mons pubis, the soft, haircovered mound just above her vagina. Thatll create indirect stimulation along her clitoris. Whats in it for you: Shell be doing all the real work, so you can lie back and enjoy.

FALLING OFF
How to do it: Your partner lies on her back and slides down to the foot of the bed, letting her head, shoulders, and upper back extend over the edge. You perch above her, bracing yourself on the edge of the mattress. Difficulty: 10 Payoff: 7 You may have some trouble talking her into this one. Dangling upside down at the foot of the bed is only for women with flexible backs. But if shes up to it, this position stretches the lips of her vagina in a way that causes your penis to tug at her clitoris. The result can be intense. Our satisfied tester told us that not only was her orgasm more powerful, but, thanks to gravity, she also enjoyed having her breasts conveniently close to her face. Youll need a low bed (try the futon in the guest room) and a couple of thick pillows on the floor to keep her from bumping her head. She should try to keep as much of her lower back on the mattress as possible, so you have enough space to do your work. And show some restraint when you thrust. She may not find it romantic to be knocked headfirst onto the floor. Whats in it for you: This is a great position if your mate is taller than you are. And your biceps look huge from down there.

THE COWGIRL
How to do it: You lean back with your shoulders against the foot of the bed and your feet on the floor, supporting the bulk of your weight. She straddles your midsection and uses her legs to thrust. Difficulty: 6 Payoff: 10 Even if shes never been the jockey type, shell have a hard time resisting this invitation to ride. Not only does she control the angle, speed, depth, and rhythm of the thrusts, but because she supports her own weight, she also has complete freedom of movement. This is as close as you can get to having sex in a swing set without having to install hardware in your bedroom, says Weston. Your mate doesnt have to rely on your figuring out where she likes to be touchedshe can stimulate whatever needs it on her own. One caution: Some women tend to get weak in the knees during orgasm, so brace yourself for a little extra weight once she peaks. Whats in it for you: You cant beat the view.

Sex Tricks from Skin Flicks

Were not huge fans of adult movies, unless of course you can learn something from them. Then were all for them! Thats why we sent a sex writer home with 40 X-rated videos. When he emerged 3 days later broken and empty, he was still conscious enough to bring us these lessons for the bedroom. Dont finish where you started. Three minutes is about as long as youll see any two (or more) actors in the same sexual position; theyll reconfigure several times during a scene to keep things interesting. You should, too. It can keep you from ejaculating too soon. Use your head. To keep your tongue from getting tired during oral sex, try sticking it out, closing your mouth around it, and moving your entire head. Youll last twice as long. Stretch out. Have her lie flat on her back with her legs straight up in the air and her knees together. Kneel facing her, with your legs spread wide on the bed. Enter her with her feet resting over your shoulders. The advantage: Youll get deep, tight penetration without too much contortion. Thrust one at a time. Penetrate slowly, then withdraw completely; wait a second and start over, 10 times. Insertion is everyones favorite part of intercourse, says Mark Elliott, Ph.D., a sex therapist. (Maybe second favorite.) Repeating the initial insertion will help you savor the feeling. Be careful; you could like it so much that you finish before youre ready. Bounce. If shes on top, have her sit still so you can do the bouncingand control the speed of the friction. Bend your knees and use your thigh muscles. When you move up and down, youll slide in and out. Stay in control so she doesnt slide all the way off. Touch and tease. For a different sensation, use two fingers to stroke up and down to stimulate both sides of her clitoris without actually touching it. Use her legs. Have her lie on her back with one leg straight; the other leg should be pulled in toward her chest. Straddle her straight leg and support yourself with an arm hooked into the crook of her bent knee. This allows good access, but because her legs are still together, shell get lots of clitoral stimulation, says Elliott. Thats a good thing. Stay clothed. Usually, you get naked, then you have sex. Next time, try giving her oral sex through her panties. Shell like the way the damp fabric feels against her. Stop worrying about aim. You know her clitoris needs attention, especially as she nears climax. But its hard to find such a tiny target when both your bodies are moving. Use the flat of your palm to make broad, quick circular motions around the front of her vaginal opening. That way, youre sure to hit the spot.
