Did that one bag of chips turn into a bag, two bars of chocolate, and a liter of ice cream? Of course, you can compensate by exercising or nibbling on a bag of carrots for the rest of the day. But if you still want to look like a little bunny, you might as well swap one (guilty) pleasure for another... LotteLust tells you which sex positions burn the most calories.

The wheelbarrow
Did you ever play ‘wheelbarrow’ as a kid? You know, hands on the floor, legs around your playmate’s waist, and off you went? The adult version of this game involves a bit less – or actually no – clothing, different movements, and naughty purposes. Forgotten how this worked? Get on your hands and knees and let your lover lift your hips into the air. This time, it’s not about moving your hands forward step by step, but rather staying in this position for as long as possible. Your arms will be burning from the muscle pain, so you can skip those impossible push-ups. Just read how many calories you burn with this position.

The pinball wizard
The name of this position reminds us more of some vague computer game from when you still had to dial up to get online. This position could have been better named ‘the bridge’. You lie on your back, bend your knees while pressing your feet firmly into the mattress. Then, you lift your hips as high as possible, so you end up in the bridge position. The fit girls among us know better than anyone that squats become unnecessary thanks to this position: your backside is put to the test. Tip: for an extra heavy workout, place your legs over your partner’s shoulders. A rock-solid booty guaranteed! These positions also guarantee a toned body.

Classics
Prefer to tackle multiple muscle groups? Then go for the classics from the Kamasutra. Having sex standing up not only offers many possibilities (let your imagination run wild), but since you use all your muscles, you also burn a ton of calories. Just like the wildly popular missionary and doggy style, which also serve well as a replacement for the treadmill. Tip: if you wrap your legs around your lover’s waist during missionary, you can easily engage your abdominal muscles. Hello, six-pack! But whichever position you take, the calories fly off as soon as you move rhythmically. You score extra points when you take on ‘the work’ yourself. This way, you burn no less than two moorkoppen per hour (400 kcal) with the cowgirl. O YES!

Do you prefer to kill two birds with one stone? These yoga positions are also sex positions. A must-try for the bedroom.
