transition position Archives ⋆ All Star Positions

Splitting the Bamboo position might just be one of the most underrated on the entire roster. Sure, unobstructed access to both holes, the potential for DEEP penetration, and many opportunities for clitoral stimulation are all great. But best of all, using this position (the way you’re about to see) makes you the king of “smooth moves’. More on that in a minute.

Splitting The Bamboo position is the ultimate twist on missionary… literally.

To get into Splitting the bamboo, begin in the classic missionary position, straddle one of your woman’s legs, and twist her torso. Lift her upper leg straight into the air and rest it against your chest.

Caution: Avoid putting all your weight on her thigh. It might feel like the path of least resistance, but it can put her leg to sleep and kill any chance of orgasm.

Getting Started: You might find that your naughty bits don’t line up quite right. You might be a little too high (or low) to enter your woman. Try spreading your legs wider to lower yourself to the right height. You can also put a pillow under her butt to lift her up. Just keep in mind that this will change her angle. More on that below.

Optimize for Orgasms

If you’ve been using all star positions for a while, you already know the importance of targeting your woman’s orgasm zones. If you have a particular bend in your penis or your woman is taller than most (for example), you might have to adapt your position in order to make her come.

How?

Test Angles

If you lean over her in a pushup position, it’ll feel completely different from being upright. Try both and see what she responds to best. Lean back a little or twisting your core to one side vs the other. Test a slight shift in her angle. Lying perfectly on her side or mid way between her side and on her butt can make all the difference. The slightest shift in your positions can be the difference between “I was close” and “OMG!! No one has ever made me come so hard!”

Once you nail her position, amplify it.

One of the great benefits you get from splitting the bamboo is the easy access. You both have plenty of access to all her naughty bits with plenty of room to play.

While holding her airborne leg against your chest with one hand, make use of the other. Play with her clit. Grab a boob. Pull her favorite vibrator out the drawer and give her double the pleasure.

If she’s into it, switch hands and use your free one to play with her ass. Lick your thumbpad and lightly rub against her anus. Tease it while SLOWLY and gradually making your way in. Use some anal beads or a butt plug.

Encourage her to play with herself or invite her favorite toy. Heck, you can have her play with her clit, while you toy her anus, grab a boob, and penetrate her deep spot.

Splitting the Bamboo is the Ultimate ‘Smooth Move’

Not much kills the mood like awkwardly fumbling around between positions. It shows a woman that you’re not totally confident and comfortable and it passes those arousal killing emotions on to her. Not good.

Instead, you want to use smooth moves that don’t add any breaks into the mood.

One of the easiest ways to pull this off is by smoothly transitioning between positions. Far too many guys mess this up and it’s such an easy fix.

Splitting the bamboo is the ultimate ‘smooth transition’ position and demonstrates the strategy perfectly.

The way to switch positions smoothly is by making small, subtle, sub movements… one at a time. Trying to flip your woman around, bending her knees, and putting her legs behind her head creates lots of opportunity for you to fumble. Instead, make the smallest movements possible. One. At. A. Time.

For example, you might start in the classic missionary. From here, grab one of her wrists and putt it across her body, twisting her upper body on its side. Enjoy that position for a minute.

Now lift your pelvis, straddle one of her legs and pull her other leg to the same side you did her arm. Now her entire body is on its side.

From here you can easily lift her leg up in the air and enjoy splitting the bamboo.

Maybe you lean forward for a while before returning to the classic version.

Without having to move much at all, you can easily grab her airborne ankle and move it down towards the bed, turning her fully onto her stomach and into the prone bone.

Notice how all these small shifts can lead you from one position to another with very little room for awkward stumbling.

This is what it means to have smooth moves.

Master the Art of Smooth Moves

Now this was just one example of how to go from missionary to prone bone but the fact is that you could run through almost every position on this site by using this same principle.

Now even if you’ve nailed the art of the smooth move, there is 1 mistake almost all men make in bed that ruins a woman chance at orgasm.

HINT: Even the most experienced guys still make this costly blunder.

Try this 30 second dirty thought experiment to find out if you’re making this deadly mistake and what to do instead.

The side straddle sex position is one of the most important in a great lovers sexual arsenal.

Not only does it give unusually unique and pleasurable sensations for your woman, it also creates one of the most important elements of a satisfying romp… smooth transitions.

In this article you’ll learn:

Why “transition positions” are such a key ingredient to being an amazing lover… and why the side straddle is one of these key positions.
How the side straddle automatically prevents one of the most common penetration mistakes men make.
How to use the side straddle to give your woman one of the most pleasurable, exciting, and orgasmic experiences of her entire life.

First, let’s take a look at…

How To Get Into The Side Straddle Sex Position

While your woman is lying on her side, lift her upper leg, and straddle the other. Hold (or even hug) her upper leg against your chest.

Since she’s on her side while you’re on top, it makes you enter her at a very unusual angle… but one that’s deliciously pleasurable.

Since you both have your legs spread and you enter at an angle you’re going to go much deeper inside of her.

Because of this, you’re going to hit all different kinds of deep pleasure zones that she might have never even known were there!

Meanwhile, depending on weather you hold her leg or just let it rest against you, you can have 1 or both hands free to roam.

Grab her ass with one hand while fondling her breasts with the other.

Or use a hand to play with her clit, while you rub her insides with your tip.

It Makes You Last Longer… WHILE Making Her Come Quicker!

Unlike other positions that make it easy for you to thrust straight in and out very fast, this one makes that hard to do.

Inexperienced lovers might think this is a bad thing, but it’s actually one of the keys that makes this position so great!

Why?

It slows you down and prevents you from coming too quick.
It forces you to thrust in a way that makes women come.

See, women don’t often come from the same kind of penetration that men do.

For a guy to come, he just needs to thrust straight in and out. The faster and harder, the sooner he comes.

But women don’t get much stimulation to their “orgasm triggers” from that type of thrusting.

In order for a woman to come, you need to thrust in a way that stimulates the right spots, such as the clit or g-spot.

Notice when a woman gets on top to ride you, most don’t bounce straight up and down on your cock. Unless she’s a pornstar or stripper, this just isn’t what get’s women off.

What does a woman do when they get on top?

She GRINDs you.

She gets on top, and rather than focusing on your dick going in and out, she focuses on rubbing her clit against your pubic bone and shaft… WHILE you’re inside of her.

Bottom line, this position makes it hard to “pump” in and out of her – the kind of stimulation that makes us come…

And it makes it easy to grind her – the kind of stimulation that makes her come!

So when you’re in the side straddle, grind, don’t pump.

Why The Best Lovers Use The Side Straddle Sex Position So Often

If you’ve been studying how to be a great lover for any amount of time, then you know about the importance of variety.

Women NEED a variety of sexual experiences in order to stay hungry for sex.

This applies to

the emotions she feels during sex
the types of orgasms (IE: oral, fingering, vaginal, anal, etc)
the types of stimulation (IE: clitoral, g-spot, a-spot, etc)
the positions you use.

In this article, we’re focusing on positions and emotions.

If you’re always using the same 2 positions, she’s eventually going to get bored.

Most guys know this.

What isn’t talked about as often by sex educators and “gurus” is the importance of smooth transitions from one position to the next.

If you’re fumbling around and clanking heads to switch positions, it’s going to throw her off her game.

It messes with the emotions needed to orgasm.

All that positive, erotic emotion you built up can dissolve in an instant with one bad fumble.

Transitioning smoothly between positions keeps her in an erotic and orgasmic state. And when you do it right, it even amplifies her pleasure and arousal.

So how do you transition from one position to another?

One step at a time!

Here’s an example.

2 of the most commonly used positions are missionary and doggy.

Use The Side Straddle To Transition From Missionary To Doggy

Start off slow in the missionary position to make her feel safe, care for and loved.

Kiss her.

Whisper some sweet nothing in her ear.

Get present and FEEL your arousal build. Because women are so intuitive, it’ll cause her to feel the same.

Now, SLOWLY pull out of her while looking her in the eyes (with a flirty grin on your face) and keep feeling your arousal.

Put a hand on the bed (for support) and lift one of your knees over one of her thighs to straddle her.

Grab her other leg and slowly lift it up towards your chest while gently kissing it a few times.

When you do this, her core will naturally start to rotate and tilt her upper body on its side.

It’ll feel very smooth and natural to her and it’ll build her arousal cause she’ll anticipate what’s happening next without having to think about what to do or what position to get in.

Now rest her leg against your chest, and start to tease her clit with your tip.

Rub it against her clit side to side, up and down, and in circles.

Now rub your tip against her opening for a minute.

Tell her she isn’t ready for it yet to build her desire.

When you’re ready, slowly enter her again.

Now’s the time to start turning up the emotion and arousal a bit more.

Slowly and gradually start to build up the intensity and fuck her a little harder.

Grab her boobs a bit more passionately.

Turn your sweet nothings into slightly dirtier talk.

Feel your arousal getting more intense as your actions follow.

Notice hers doing the same.

Now take her leg off your chest, and move it the other way, towards the other side of the bed.

Try to stay inside of her while doing this.

Now turn everything up to the next level.

Get a little rougher again.

Grab her boobs a little harder (always being careful not to hurt her of course).

Maybe tug on her hair a bit or slap her ass.

Remember, keep dialing up the arousal, dirty talk, and movements all in sync to make the transition as smooth as possible.

Once her emotion is turned on as much as yours…

Grab her upper arm and pull it towards the bed to flip her completely over and take her from behind.

And that’s it!

This is how you use the side straddle sex position to transition from “love-making” missionary to rough from behind doggy.

But these same concepts can be used to transition to and from lots of positions.

Here are the keys to remember.

Do it gradually. In increments.
Find a leverage point to move her around easily (in this case it was her leg)

Make sure to keep the emotions & actions in sync. Don’t make slow, gentle love while pulling her hair and telling her you love how slutty she is. Keep everything congruent!
