The Apex Sex Position: A Complete Guide to Enhanced Intimacy

The apex sex position is popular for its deeper penetration, enhanced G-spot stimulation, and closer intimacy between partners. This position is perfectly suited for those who want intense pleasure, a fresh experience, or a more controlled and connected feeling. Many couples have heightened their sensations and become more intimate through this position. This guide maps out everything you need to know—how to perform it, its advantages, what to avoid, and how to enhance the experience with sex toys.

What Is the Apex Sex Position?

The apex sex position is an upgraded form of the missionary position. It elevates the pelvis to create a precise angle during penetration. With a pillow, wedge, or folded blanket, the penetrating partner can thrust directly toward the G-spot or prostate.

Key features of the Apex sex position:

  • Face-to-face closeness
  • Deeper, more precise penetration
  • Less waist pressure
  • Ideal for targeting the G-spot, A-spot, and prostate

How to Do the Apex Sex Position?

Set the Stage

The receiving partner lies on their back on a flat surface. To enhance the experience, elevate the receiving partner's pelvis with a pillow, folded blanket, or a sex wedge. Remember, the higher the pelvic lift, the deeper the penetration will be.

Relax and Open Up

Lift and open the legs in a relaxed way. For a deeper stretch, let the knees fall to the sides, creating a supine butterfly shape. This does require a bit more flexibility, but it allows the pelvic floor to relax more effectively by fully opening the legs.

Finding the Perfect Angle

The giving partner can kneel or stand closer to the receiver's hips to begin. Adjust the angle carefully until both partners feel comfortable and aligned. The elevated angle provided by the pillow or wedge will naturally guide the shaft to the right spots for maximum pleasure.

For Foreplay and Oral Fun

This position isn't just for penetration; it is also highly suitable for foreplay like finger teasing and oral sex. The elevated hip position ensures the vulva is fully exposed, offering a great view and easy access for the partner.

Variations of the Apex Sex Position

Back Apex

The receiving partner supports themselves with their hands on the bed or a sturdy chair, while the giving partner lifts their legs. Think of it like a wheelbarrow, but you're suspended in mid-air. With only the genitals touching and the hands holding the legs, the feeling of vulnerability and control becomes stronger. This boost in intensity helps many people reach orgasm faster.

Stickman

This position uses a couch. You bend over the armrest with your face pressed into the seat, and your arms are pulled back by the giving partner who holds your hips tightly. Think of this position as being delightfully pinned against the armrest. It creates a natural leverage that hands the reins over to the giving partner, amplifying that thrilling sense of total control.

Toy-Enhanced Apex

sex toys for women

For the ultimate pleasure, incorporating toys is a great choice. A cock ring with a clit vibrator can intensify pleasure during penetration. A double-ended vibrator works perfectly for LGBTQ+ partners, allowing both users to feel the vibrations together and explore a variety of shared positions. With these tools, you can explore endless positions that take you to heaven. Just make sure you are practicing safe and consensual play.

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

  1. Using a pillow that is too high. Excessive elevation may cause too much pressure on the spine and create an uncomfortable angle.
  2. Lack of lubricant. When trying more extreme or angled positions, applying plenty of lubricant is a great way to prevent friction and injury.
  3. Kneeling too far away. This makes penetration shallower and may also introduce air, which can cause discomfort in the vaginal area.
