The Pretzel sex position is an enjoyable man on top position, where you can relax and let your man do pretty much all of the work. It’s one of the less exotic positions from over 100 that you will find in our list of the greatest sex positions.

It will teach you how to have multiple vaginal and full body orgasms during sex and masturbation. It works even if you currently struggle to orgasm during sex or when masturbating.

To perform the Pretzel, you’ll need to lie on your side in the recovery position just like in the demonstration above. Then you need to raise your top leg a little bit towards your chest and put your top arm either in front or behind you to stay in position. You can keep your lower leg fairly straight and feel free to position your lower arm however you like. Your man then needs to straddle your straight leg while on his knees and remain upright and start thrusting into you. You won’t be able to do anything in this position so you can just relax and take it easy.
What The Girl Does In The Pretzel Position
Like I just said, you don’t need to do anything at all in the Pretzel position. You just need to relax. If you want though, you can use one of your hands to start masturbating yourself and massaging your clitoris to help yourself climax. If you are having anal sex with your man, then you can finger yourself too.
What The Guy Does In The Pretzel Position
Your man will be doing almost all the work. He can rest his hands on the bed to make it easier to thrust into you or he can put his hands on your waist/leg. If you want him to thrust deeper into you, then your man can grab your arm and pull you towards him with each thrust.
But for a lot of couples, the Pretzel is not all about penetrating you fast and hard, it’s about slower, more gentle and intimate sex. This means that your man may want to slow things down a bit and grind on you instead of thrusting in and out.
Things To Consider When Performing The Pretzel Position
The Pretzel is not a very common position, but a lot of students of the Bad Girls Bible have tried it and have given me some great insights into getting the most out of it:
- The Pretzel is great for when you are tired and you want your man to do all the work.
- The Pretzel is more of a sensual sex position than a crazy, ‘wild’ sex position. Although if he wants, your man can penetrate you more vigorously.
- Anal sex is quite easy in the Pretzel position, but it doesn’t make for a sensual, intimate time with your man. If you are looking for something that is more sensual and bonding, then perhaps start with an intimate massage!
- To help your man penetrate you deeper, you can grab your top leg with your arms(s) and pull it closer to your chest.

Sean’s Thoughts On The Pretzel Sex Position
I like the Pretzel a lot. It’s great for when I’m with a girl who wants some slow, sensual sex. It’s also really easy to switch from Spooning to the Pretzel in a matter of seconds.
Orgasm Every Time. Easily. Here’s How...
I want to tell you about my friend Karen.
Karen came to me one day. She was hysterical.
She told me that her marriage was falling apart because she and her husband didn’t have satisfying sex.
Every time they were intimate, Karen was faking her orgasms. It turns out she couldn’t orgasm during sex.
In fact...
She never had an orgasm in her entire life. Not one!
This left her feeling embarrassed and ashamed. And...
She completely hid this from her husband. Thankfully...
It turns out that there is a way for any woman to orgasm. Easily. And have multiple vaginal and full body orgasms during sex and masturbation.
I shared the process with Karen.
After she followed the simple process, she could barely come to terms with how...
Quickly and dramatically her sex life changed.
We met up a few months later and...
She would not stop talking about it,
“I thought I was one of those women who couldn’t orgasm. I used to think I was ‘broken’ and ‘unfixable.’ This saved my sex life, and that saved my marriage.”
Even if you currently struggle to orgasm during sex or when masturbating, this process will also work for you.
And best of all, you don’t need to do anything weird or uncomfortable to start having the best orgasms and sex of your life.
Love this position, I like that there’s so much contact on inner and outer thigh and I like being up on the knees. My wife’s behind is a thing of beauty and I get to hold and admire it. We get into this position sometimes when she’s already come and I get just get to enjoy the sensuality and she doesn’t have to do much.
This is best position for less endowed men
As a less endowed man, I’ve found that any penetration position which allows my full hips pressing completely against my wife’s body has helped. Although you may not feel as much internal sensation as a bigger man, the combination of external pressure combined with the fullest internal penetration possible should give you better overall pleasure.
Awesome tip!
