The Workout Move: Yoga

The sneaky sex benefit: The more you practice your "Ujjayi" breathing — a common yoga technique in which you inhale deeply while expanding your chest and lungs, then take a long exhale — the more focused you'll be (instead of letting the stresses of the day distract you). Why? Research shows that brain activity actually decreases when you take these deep breaths, giving you a sense of well-being and peace. This self-taught calmness will come in handy when you and your partner finally get some alone-time, Glazer says. The reason: Since breathing deeply will come naturally to you, it'll be easier to turn off the never-ending to-do list in your brain ("I'm out of dog food!" "The dryer needs unloading!") and fully devote your mind and body to that sexy guy next to you.

 

The Workout Move: Crunches

The sneaky sex benefit: When you do sit-ups, your pelvic muscles — which support your reproductive organs and contract quickly during orgasm — also get a workout, says Gagne. And the stronger those muscles are, the more intense your climax will be. "To engage your pelvic muscles while you do your sit-ups, make sure your lower back stays on the floor and keep your shoulder blades lifted up off the ground the entire time," she explains. Do three sets of 15 crunches three times a week and within two weeks, you'll notice that not only are your abs stronger, but your pelvic floor is too. Obviously, you won't be able to see your new and improved sex muscles, but you should find that you can better flex your pubococcygeal (PC) muscle — the one that stops the flow of urine when you squeeze it and is part of a network of pelvic floor muscles — during intercourse. This will increase stimulation, leading to super-strong orgasms.
