How to do The New Mattress Sex Position

1. Partner A lies flat on their back on a supportive mattress, allowing the body to sink naturally into the surface with arms relaxed at their sides or resting on partner B.
2. Partner B climbs on top, positioning themselves between partner A’s legs while supporting their own upper body weight with forearms or hands placed alongside partner A’s torso.
3. Partner A opens their legs to a comfortable width and can bend their knees slightly to improve alignment and ease of entry.
4. Partner B adjusts hip height and angle until both partners find a rhythm that feels natural, using the mattress surface for gentle leverage and bounce.
5. Both partners maintain close torso contact throughout, allowing for kissing, whispered communication, and gradual adjustments to pace and depth.

Health and wellness benefits

• Core and glute engagement: Partner B activates the core, glutes, and hip flexors throughout the rhythmic movement, providing a low-impact workout that supports muscular endurance and pelvic stability.
• Stress relief through skin-to-skin contact: The full-body closeness inherent in this position promotes oxytocin release, which can lower cortisol levels, reduce anxiety, and foster a deeper sense of emotional security between partners.
• Improved communication and trust: Because the face-to-face orientation allows constant eye contact and verbal check-ins, couples often find this position strengthens emotional intimacy and builds trust over time.

Variations

Elevated Hips

Partner A places a firm pillow or folded blanket beneath their hips to change the angle of contact, which can enhance comfort and sensation for both partners.

Wrapped Legs

Partner A wraps their legs around partner B’s waist or lower back, drawing them closer and adding a sense of enveloping connection that intensifies both physical and emotional closeness.

Slow Tempo

Both partners deliberately slow the pace to focus on sensation and breathing together, transforming the experience into a more mindful, meditative practice that deepens intimacy.

Comfort and safety tips

• If there is a significant difference in body weight between partners, partner B should distribute their weight through their forearms and knees rather than resting fully on partner A, ensuring comfort and easy breathing for both.
• Couples with differing heights can use pillow adjustments under partner A’s hips or head to achieve better alignment without strain on the neck or lower back.
• A medium-firm mattress provides the best balance of support and cushioning — surfaces that are too soft may absorb momentum and cause lower back fatigue for partner B over time.

Frequently asked questions

Is The New Mattress suitable for complete beginners?

Absolutely. This position requires no advanced flexibility or strength, making it one of the most accessible configurations for couples just beginning to explore intimacy together. The natural body alignment keeps things intuitive.

How can we make this position more comfortable for longer sessions?

Partner B should periodically shift weight between forearms and hands to prevent muscle fatigue. Placing a supportive pillow under partner A’s lower back can also reduce strain and allow both partners to sustain the position comfortably.

Does mattress firmness really make a difference?

It does. A mattress that offers moderate support helps partner B maintain rhythm without excessive effort, while giving partner A enough cushioning to stay relaxed. Very soft surfaces can make movement more tiring and reduce the natural leverage both partners rely on.
