The apex sex position is a dynamic move where one partner leans forward on a waist‑high surface while the other stands behind, lifting for deep, A‑spot and G‑spot stimulation. This position combined leverage, pelvic lift, and balance to create intense sensations and a powerful sense of intimacy. Mastering apex requires proper setup, communication, and a few YOLOVE toy pairings—clitoral vibrators, prostate massagers, or suction‑cup rings—to enhance pleasure. Below, we’ll cover step‑by‑step instructions, pro tips, and six detailed positions similar to apex for adventurous couples.
What Is the Apex Sex Position?
The apex sex position involves the receiving partner bracing their hands on a stable, waist‑high surface—such as a dresser, countertop, or the edge of a bed—and leaning forward while the penetrating partner stands behind. By lifting the receiver’s pelvis, the standing partner aligns their shaft for deeper penetration against the anterior vaginal wall, stimulating areas up to two inches deeper than the G‑spot. The result is a heightened, enveloping feeling of fullness and intimacy.
Step‑by‑Step Guide
-
Select a Stable Surface
Choose a sturdy, waist‑high platform (bed edge, stool, countertop) and test its stability by leaning against it before starting. -
Receiver Positioning
Stand facing the surface with legs hip‑width apart, hands flat on the edge for support. -
Pelvic Lift
Penetrator slips one arm under the receiver’s hips and lifts gently until the pelvis aligns with their shaft. -
Leg Wrap
Receiver wraps legs around the penetrator’s hips or keeps them planted for stability, engaging core and thigh muscles. -
Thrust and Adjust
Begin with slow, deep thrusts; vary angle by shifting the receiver’s torso or adjusting leg height. Communicate to refine depth and rhythm.
Pro Tips & YOLOVE Toy Pairings
-
Lubricate Thoroughly: Use a water‑based or warming lube to ease entry and enhance sensation.
-
Clitoral Buzz: Attach a small Clitoral Vibrator to the receiver’s vulva for simultaneous external stimulation.
-
Hands‑Free Suction: Place a Clitoral Suction Vibrator against the clitoris; lean back slightly to engage it.
-
Prostate Play: For rear‑entry apex, pre‑insert a Prostate Massager to combine A‑spot and prostate stimulation.
-
Cock Rings: Wear a Cock Ring to enhance erection rigidity and prolong thrusting.
6 Positions Similar to the Apex
1. Candle Position
Also known as the “Butterfly” position in some traditions, the Candle offers a deep‑penetration angle much like the apex.
Setup & Execution:
-
Receiver’s Stance: The receiving partner stands facing a sturdy surface — bed edge, countertop, or dresser — and bends forward at the hips until their torso rests on it.
-
Arm Placement: They support themselves by placing forearms or hands flat, shoulder‑width apart, on the surface.
-
Hip Elevation: The penetrating partner enters from behind, lifting the receiver’s hips slightly by slipping one arm under their pelvic bone.
-
Leg Positioning: The receiver can either leave legs straight (for stability) or bend one knee to wrap a leg around the lifter’s waist for extra leverage.
-
Movement: Slow, deep thrusts maximize A‑spot or G‑spot contact—experiment with lifting higher or lowering the surface height to adjust the angle.
Pro Tips:
-
Pillow Under Stomach: Place a small pillow under the receiver’s hips for added lift and comfort.
-
Clitoral Stimulation: Use a small clitoral vibrator pressed softly against the mons or labia for dual stimulation.
-
Safety Check: Ensure the surface is secure; test stability by applying downward pressure before climbing on.
2. Wall Lift
This vertical variation emphasizes lift and thrust intensity, ideal for partners comfortable with standing balance.
Setup & Execution:
-
Receiver Position: Stand facing a bare wall, feet hip‑width apart.
-
Hand Support: Place hands flat against the wall at shoulder height.
-
Leg Wrap: The receiving partner lifts one foot and wraps that leg around the penetrator’s hip, keeping the other foot grounded for balance.
-
Hip Lift: The penetrating partner supports the wrapped leg’s thigh with one arm, lifting the receiver’s pelvis toward the shaft.
-
Thrust Control: The standing partner uses slow downward and inward thrusts, guiding the receiver’s lifted hip to vary depth and pressure.
Pro Tips:
-
Grip Socks or Mats: If the floor is slippery, wear socks with rubber grips or lay down a yoga mat.
-
Hands‑Free Clit Suction: Attach a clitoral suction vibrator to the wall nearby and lean back slightly to align it with the clitoris.
-
Warm‑Up Lube: Use a warming lubricant to ease deeper angles and heighten sensitivity.
3. Hook Position
A half‑standing, half‑embrace stance that marries lift with close body contact.
Setup & Execution:
-
Receiver’s Stance: Stand with feet about a foot apart for stability.
-
Leg Hook: Lift one leg and hook it around the penetrator’s hip or waist, allowing the thigh to rest securely.
-
Pelvis Support: Penetrator places one hand under the hooked thigh and one at the small of the receiver’s back.
-
Lean & Thrust: The receiver leans back slightly into the penetrator’s torso; slow in‑and‑out or circular thrusts keep the hooked thigh raised and pressure consistent.
Pro Tips:
-
Core Engagement: Both partners engage their cores to maintain balance and avoid strain.
-
Remote Clit Control: Pair with an app‑controlled toy for surprise bursts of vibration.
-
Towel Grip: Drape a towel over the penetrator’s shoulder for extra leg support if the hook feels unstable.
4. Sagittarius
A hybrid side‑standing position that directs thrusts at an upward angle.
Setup & Execution:
-
Receiver Side‑Stand: The receiver stands sideways to the penetrator, one hip pressed against them.
-
Leg Lift: The receiver lifts the outside leg (the one farther from the wall or furniture) and rests it on a low stool or the penetrator’s thigh.
-
Angle Alignment: The penetrator aligns their pelvis so the shaft enters at an upward angle toward the receiver’s anterior wall.
-
Movement: Slow, angled thrusts allow the receiver to feel pressure on both the G‑spot and A‑spot, with slight leg adjustments changing the sensation.
Pro Tips:
-
Footwear Caution: Bare feet or yoga socks can prevent slipping on floors.
-
Pillow Under Raised Leg: For comfort, place a folded pillow under the receiver’s raised leg instead of a stool.
-
Temperature Play: Alternate between a warmed rose clit vibrator on the clitoris and cool slick lube on the shaft for contrasting sensations.
5. Flying Squirrel
An advanced lift that offers a horizontal experience for maximal depth.
Setup & Execution:
-
Receiver Crawl: The receiver starts in a push‑up–style position on hands and knees.
-
Underarm Lift: The penetrator kneels beside and slips one arm under the receiver’s armpit, the other under the thigh opposite.
-
Horizontal Hold: Gently lift the receiver horizontally, so their body is parallel to the floor.
-
Penetration: While maintaining lift, the penetrator enters from behind, using low, deliberate thrusts to avoid jolting the suspended partner.
Pro Tips:
-
Spotter Help: A third person can support the lifted end if maintaining full horizontal lift is too strenuous.
-
Soft Surfaces: Perform over a bed or mattress to prevent discomfort from floor proximity.
-
Synchronize Breath: Coordinate inhalation and exhalation to stabilize core muscles and reduce fatigue.
6. Mermaid
A bed‑edge side‑lift that combines horizontal and vertical angles without full standing strength.
Setup & Execution:
-
Receiver Side‑Lying: Receiver lies on their side at the edge of the bed, legs dangling off.
-
Penetrator Kneels: The penetrator kneels on the floor beside the bed.
-
Leg Elevation: The penetrator lifts the top leg of the receiver, pressing it against their shoulder or holding it with both hands.
-
Thrusting Motion: From this kneeling posture, the penetrator uses upward and inward thrusts, leveraging the leg lift to deepen penetration against the anterior fornix.
Pro Tips:
-
Pillow Under Hips: A small pillow beneath the receiver’s hip can stabilize alignment and reduce back strain.
-
Combined Vibration: Place a small wand vibrator at the vaginal entrance for continuous stimulation.
-
Hand‑Free Clitoral Suction: Affix a suction‑cup clit toy to the bed frame for added hands‑free pleasure.
