Have you ever wondered what goes on in the body before, during and after you reach that cimax? There is a way your muscles play a big role and help you have an orgasm. Orgasms aren’t just about how you feel, so, let’s see which muscles are involved in making that magical moment happen.

1. Pelvic Floor Muscles (The Main Helpers)

First, let’s talk about the pelvic floor muscles. These muscles are super important when it comes to orgasms. They’re the ones that tighten and contract during an orgasm, giving you that intense feeling. Both men and women have these muscles, and they make the whole experience a lot better. Think of them as the main helpers in your body’s pleasure party. I'm sure you know where your pelvic muscles are.

2. The PC Muscle (Your Pleasure Muscle)

Yesss there's such a thing as the pleasure muscle. The pubococcygeus (PC) muscle a.k.a pleasure muscle, is part of the pelvic floor muscles. This muscle goes from your pubic bone to your tailbone and is really important for sexual pleasure. When you do Kegel exercises, you’re working out this muscle. A strong PC muscle means stronger and better orgasms. It’s like a turbo boost for your pleasure. I guess this is your cue to learn kegelexercises so you can increase your chances of gettting blind blowing orgasms.

3. The Bulbospongiosus Muscle (The Rhythm Maker)

Next is the bulbospongiosus muscle. In men, this muscle helps with ejaculation by contracting during orgasm. In women, it helps make the vaginal opening tight and also contracts during orgasm. Think of this muscle as the beat in your favorite song—it sets the rhythm and makes everything feel more intense. This is the science that explains that contraction you feel all atonce when you're reaching the peak of sexual pleasure.

4. The Ischiocavernosus Muscle (The Pressure Builder)

Did you know that it is the rush of blood in your sensitive areas that makes you feel the erection you feel? Yep! This muscle helps keep erections strong in men and makes the clitoris more sensitive in women by holding blood in these areas. It helps build up the pressure before you reach orgasm. It’s like the excitement that builds up in a great story before the big ending.

5. The Anal Sphincter (The Extra Helper)

Don’t forget the anal sphincter. This muscle is part of the pelvic floor group and also contracts during orgasm for both men and women. It’s not the star, but it helps make the whole experience more intense. This gives you a hint on why some people love anal sex.

6. The Abdominal Muscles (The Core Support)

Your abs, or abdominal muscles, help during sex too. Strong abs help you keep different positions and make muscle contractions stronger during orgasm. They provide support and strength, making the whole experience better. So if you're one of those people who think having an amusement park for a belly doesn't matter, plase rethink. No body shaming here but you can make things better if you build up your abdominal muscles, you don't necessarily need a six pack to perform!

7. Thigh Muscles (The Steady Support)

Lastly, let’s talk about the thigh muscles. These muscles help you stay steady and support you during different sex positions. Strong thigh muscles help you control your movements and keep going longer, which can make your orgasms better. They’re like the strong foundation of a building, giving support and strength. So you know those who work on their legs are not in the gym for the fun of it, they know this secret as well. A lot of pressure is put on your thighs during intercourse so please be intentional.

Wrapping It Up...

So, these are the muscles in your body that help you have an orgasm. From the important pelvic floor muscles to the supportive thigh muscles, each one plays a big role in making your sexual experiences great.
