So there is nothing like a good workout to me. It clears your mind, increases endorphin release so you’re naturally happier, and it improves your overall health. Working out has always been a steady joy in my life, with lifting being my favorite form of exercise. I even lifted throughout my pregnancy stopping just 3 weeks before I delivered, but only because I wanted to sleep more than I wanted to lift.
Since the birth of my son in 2017, getting back into a workout routine has been difficult to say the least. In the interest of condensing my budget I chose to workout from home, best decision ever. Now it isnt the convenience, or the frugality of it that makes it the best. Its the much needed privacy that I didn’t know I would need until IT happened.
What is it exactly? It was and is a coregasm. I know what your thinking wtf is a coregasm? A coregasm is in essence an orgasm that occurs during or for some after a workout or an exercise induced orgasm. The workout is generally core specific by doesn’t have to be. I of course have a history of back problems so maintaining my core strength is paramount. I had heard of women having orgasms while exercising before but I had never been the recipient of one until about a month ago.
I was doing the core portion of my workout, which had finally become a bit routine 3-4 days a week, when it snuck up on me. It started as a slight pressure with a mild tingle. Honestly I thought I had to urinate so I just wanted to finish my last few bicycle crunches. Before I knew it bam I was totally overcome by an intense muscle initiated orgasm. It was completely different than the typical orgasm brought on by clitoral stimulation. It was way more intense and also much more exhausting lol.
In the process of figuring out what exactly just happened I learned that only around 5% of women have experienced said climax. As wonderful as this might sound I was so unhappy. I’m sure you think I’m tripping because who wouldn’t want to cum and lose weight at the same time. Well, me! As I mentioned before I love lifting. One big reason I’ve been doing the work to get more core back in order is so I can get back in the gym. Well anyone who lifts knows how important your core is to every move. It is constantly engaged and without it your success is limited.
What’s the correlation? Fine point there is no way I can lift safely if I may or may not orgasm. Sure I know the signs now but I can’t control it. Not to mention 1. You can’t always rack a nice amount of weight fast and 2. I don’t always have someone to spot me. Not to mention the thought of having an orgasm in public in a room full of strangers does not sound enticing to me. I have no idea what even triggered these to occur, maybe it was all the kegels combined with my long-term sexual hiatus. All I know is right now I can’t get through a workout without one happening.
Now like any positive thinking person I had to find the upside. What other than the obvious soul snatching pleasure (yes its that good) could one gain from a coregasm? Increased stamina, its unexpected cardio, like a quick 30 second sprint for your life type moment. Naturally lower stress levels because let’s face it very few people are more stressed than a single parent. I’ll probably get to a six pack faster than I anticipated(or not but I can dream). Better rest if I workout before bed. Plus just the general idea that my body was so happy I’m working out it decided to reward me with an orgasm on the house!
The human female body is one amazing piece of work and I’ll never cease to be amazed by it. From growing humans, to feeding and nourishing them and more. I have gotten past my disappointment of not being able to lift anytime soon. I also regained my motivation to keep pushing towards my weight loss and fitness goals with a new goal in tow. I will learn how to control and ultimately stop my coregasms. For now I’m learning to #justbe in this phase of my process. Until then I’ll be working out from home afterglow and all.
