The Orgasm Workout?

The Coregasm

Some rumors are irresistible. Like Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal -- cute! Or certain core workouts can make you orgasm. Screech. Wait, you haven't heard that one? Me neither, until certain male friends started whispering about it. (Of course they're the main purveyors of this rumor!)

The tale of the female "coregasm" goes like this: squeeze the right pelvic muscles, dig deep, and blast your way through enough reps of some serious lower ab moves. Then right there in the gym, sweet, innocent, just-getting-in-a-workout you have a big fat orgasm.

Male fantasy? Maybe. But suddenly my usual ab workout motivation -- the dream of a chiseled six-pack -- seemed a little pale in comparison to, shall we say, more immediate rewards. Raring-to-go, I hit the gym to test out all the potentially orgasm-inducing ab exercises I could think of.
