Orgasms In The Gym! Workouts Can Be Fun

by Linda Franklin

Here’s a great incentive to get off your ass and get to the gym.  Women are having orgasms while lifting weights or during spinning class, even if sex was the last things on their minds.

Although this was first reported in 1953, ‘little is known about exercise-induced orgasms,’ according to scientists from Indiana University.

To fill in the gap researcher Debby Herbenick and her team surveyed hundreds of women aged from 18 to 63 who said they had experienced exercise-induced orgasm or sexual pleasure at the gym.

This opens up a whole new world of possibilities for the big “O”.  How can I orgasm – let me count the ways.

Here are the exercises that are most likely to be associated with female orgasms:

Abdominal exercises: 51.4%

Weight lifting: 26.5%

Yoga:  20%

Cycling: 15.8%

Running: 13.2%

Walking/hiking: 9.6%

A fifth of those who experienced orgasms said they had no control over the experience and most of the women felt self-conscious about it.  But, it only took five weeks to recruit the 370 women who experienced the Gym Orgasm, so exercise induced orgasms aren’t really that rare.

I go to the gym twice a week, and have been for years.  I have never once experienced orgasm while exercising.  Maybe I have to try harder.  I sure would enjoy working out more if I could look forward to that added bonus.
