Kama Sutra Position of the Week: Yawning

Apolo Ohno yawned before each speed skating competition at the Vancouver Olympics, but it wasn't because he was tired — it was to relax him and get more oxygen into his lungs.

Yawning takes on another meaning when it comes to this Kama Sutra position.

Think of your legs like a butterfly, opening up and spreading its wings — your partner enters while kneeling in front of you. How wide and lifted your legs are is up to you, but experiment to see what feels the best — changing it up can change the intensity. Go with legs straight in the air or bent into your chest. Try sitting upright or lay back — it's all about the legs "yawning."

Why It's Hot: Eye contact? Yes! Deep penetration? Yes! A great view of the action? Yes!

Level of Difficulty (1 to 5): A solid 3 — the more limber you are, the wider you'll be able to spread your legs. 

Where to Try It: It's anything but sleepy, but the yawning position is great for bed. You can also be daring and try it on a picnic blanket in a secluded park or on a desk at your office (he'll be standing).

Apolo Ohno as a partner is totally optional.
