Position of the wheelbarrow: how to practice it without losing balance

The position of the wheelbarrow is a sporty variant of the penetration from behind. It requires more strength in the arms and trunk than classic positions, but can offer a different angle and depth.

How to place yourself?

The penetrated person leans on his hands, arms relatively outstretched. The partner stands behind her, grabs her thighs or pelvis and then lifts her legs.

The legs may surround the size of the partner or remain held at the level of the thighs. Whoever is standing controls a large part of the movement.

To avoid a fall, start near a bed or sofa. The person resting on the hands should not be lifted higher than they can comfortably support it.

What are the advantages?

The angle can allow deeper penetration and offer a very different feeling from doggy style. The proximity of the pelvis and the need to coordinate the movements also make the position very interactive.

Wheelbarrow Sex Position

However, it remains tiring: it is not necessary to maintain it for long. A few minutes may be enough before moving to a more stable position.

Add sex toys

A vibrating ring can add stimulation during penile penetration. A small external vibrator can also be used on the clitoris if a hand remains available.

For anal penetration, use plenty of lubricant and reduce amplitude, as the penetrated person controls the depth in this position less easily.

The wheelbarrow is therefore above all a position of variation and play. Safety and balance go before depth: keep a support close, communicate and change position as soon as the arms or wrists tire.
