If you’re taking part in the Winter Ark Challenge, subscribing to October Theory, and keeping an eye on your health this winter, you’ll probably want to make sure you burn those calories and stay on track with Apple. You probably use a fitness ring. I’m with you. When I go out for a walk, one of the first things I do is check to see if I’ve closed my ring for the day. And if you’re like me, you probably find yourself feeling irritable at the end of the day when you have plans to go out for the night, your jammies are on, and you’re ready to go to bed. – Move the ring until you realize you didn’t close the note.
Of course, you can jump out of bed and start doing jumping jacks, or you can cut your losses and go to bed. But what if we told you that there’s another way to close a moving ring without leaving the house or even your bed? And it’s also a super fun activity. Yes, we’re talking about sex.
However, I’m sorry to be off topic, but you can’t just turn into a pillow princess and expect them to make up for the calories you didn’t burn that day. There are certain sex positions that burn a lot of calories, and you can get out of them and get your health back all at once. And it’s not just about closing the moving ring.
“Like any form of exercise, sexercise burns calories, increases heart rate, and improves cardiovascular health,” Dr. Ashwin Sharma, medical communications manager for ZipHealth and MedExpress, tells Betches. “Late-night sessions are a great way to sneak in some fitness, especially after a day spent sitting in front of a computer.”
So, to end your day healthy, here are the best sex positions to close your Apple fitness ring.
squat
This is a type of cowgirl, but instead of kneeling on top of someone, you’re literally crouching over them. So it’s time to turn Meg’s knee. Place your feet on either side of your partner and bend over using your knees to bounce up and down on them. Sure, you can use a wall or your chest to stay upright, but what’s even more difficult is finding your balance. You can already feel the calories being burned. According to a study conducted by ZipHealth, “Women burn the same amount of calories by squatting for 15 minutes as by swimming at a moderate pace for 10 minutes.”
butter churner
Okay, this is a little advanced, but you’re about to burn some serious calories here. In this position, lie on the floor and lift your hips so that only the back of your head and shoulders touch the floor. Next, your partner stands above you so that your legs are next to your arms, and grabs your thighs so that your crotches are in a straight line and your ankles are at your partner’s shoulders. This may feel hard on your abs, but it will feel great for the rest of your body.
kneeling wheelbarrow
Now, everyone has played with a “wheelbarrow” in their childhood, but kneeling wheelbarrows are only for adults, especially those who want to burn some serious calories. But don’t worry, it won’t lift you completely into the air. Get into a doggy position and extend your legs straight out behind you to make it look like you’re doing leg lifts on your knees at the gym. Be sure to switch sides so you can train both legs equally.
