Male Masturbation Techniques, Positions & Fun Ways to Jerk Off
Has jerking off become repetitive and boring? Here are some male masturbation techniques that will make you feel great and excited to masturbate again!
Everyone knows that masturbation is normal and healthy. However, many of us don’t invest nearly as much time and energy into figuring out new ways to be inventive and interesting in our solo time as we do when it comes to sex with a partner. So, we’ve put together a list of the hottest male masturbation techniques to put your imagination—and pleasure—into overdrive.
The benefits of masturbation
Before we discuss some of the male masturbation techniques you need to try, let’s talk about why you should even masturbate in the first place.
There will always be people out there telling you that masturbating is wrong. Truthfully, it all depends on your personal beliefs, but you still can’t deny that there are many benefits of getting yourself off on a regular basis.
1. It can lower your risk of certain cancers
One study from 2004 found that men who ejaculated more than 21 times a month reduced their risk for prostate cancer by about 33% compared to ones who did only 4-7 times a month.
In 2016, the researchers followed up with the same group of participants from 2004 and found that those who had orgasms 8-12 times a month reduced their prostate cancer risk by 10%. So yeah, it’s safe to say that masturbation can certainly do more good than harm.
2. It can improve the quality of your erections
As a man ages, he naturally loses muscle tone—even in his penis. But with regular sex or masturbation, a man can slow that eventual process. That’s because sex and masturbation work your pelvic floor muscles, helping to prevent erectile dysfunction and incontinence.
The smooth muscle of your penis needs to have a lot of oxygen. This is delivered when there is a rush of blood to your genitals via having an erection. The best number of times a week to do this is 3-5 times.
3. It can make you last longer in bed
One of the reasons some men don’t last very long in bed or are premature ejaculators is that they haven’t practiced delaying their orgasms. So, masturbation helps you prolong the sex sessions that you have with your partner.
Train yourself using techniques such as edging and time yourself to see how long it takes to orgasm. Every time you masturbate, try to go longer every time. Your sexual partners will thank you for it!

4. It can make your immunities more robust
When you ejaculate, your body increases its levels of cortisol. Usually, people think of cortisol as the stress hormone that can be harmful in excess. But it actually helps regulate and maintain your immune system in small amounts.
So, masturbation can produce the right environment for strengthening your immune system. It can also increase your white blood cell count for up to 45 minutes after you have an orgasm via masturbation, according to one study.
5. It can put you in a better mood
Masturbation also releases a lot of neurochemicals that make you feel good such as dopamine and oxytocin. These hormones make you feel happier, boosts your satisfaction, and activate the reward circuits in your brain.
In fact, having an orgasm is the best way to get a large dose of dopamine without any drugs or other substances! Although you can probably already attest to the happiness boost that comes with masturbation.
6. It can improve your sleep patterns
If you’re struggling with not getting enough quality sleep, masturbation can help you with that too! Having an orgasm releases chemicals in your brain like prolactin, serotonin, and oxytocin. All of these are linked to feelings of happiness and relaxation.
So, if you find yourself not sleeping well enough, try masturbating right before you go to bed. You will be surprised by how much it helps.
7. It can prolong your lifespan
Because masturbating helps release beneficial hormones into your brain and helps you sleep better, it can prolong your lifespan as well. Getting quality sleep helps your body regenerate at night
And since masturbation releases feel-good hormones, you’ll have happier and have a better quality of life too than if you didn’t masturbate as much.
8. It can enhance your complexion
Because orgasms cause increased blood flow to your skin, this makes your blood vessels open up. And for some people, this can result in some rosy cheeks.
Or some people call it a “glow” to the skin. Also, since oxytocin is also released with your orgasm, it can reduce inflammation which makes pimples and rashes not as noticeable.
9. It can decrease your self-conscious behaviors
If you’re young and still get spontaneous erections, they can be embarrassing if they show up at the wrong time.
This can make you very self-conscious and behave in a way that can decrease your self-esteem. Masturbation can decrease this for you and help you gain some more self-confidence.
10. It can optimize your heart health
And finally on this long list that’s making you wonder, “what can’t masturbation do?“, regular orgasms can help protect you from heart disease too.
Findings from the Massachusetts Male Aging Study state that men who had sex once a month or less were 45% more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than men who had two or more orgasms per week.
What a great excuse to masturbate, right?
The male masturbation techniques to master
Not everything works for everyone, so when it comes it male masturbation techniques, it’s all about trial and error to find out which techniques work best for you.
If you aren’t sure where to start, take a look at these male masturbation techniques for inspiration.
1. Pray for pleasure
Simply rub a generous amount of lube on both of your hands and then interlock them around your penis, as if you were praying.
Then start to move your hands up and down in a rhythmic rubbing motion. It’s up to you to find the perfect speed and pressure, but when you do, it’s a pretty heavenly experience!
2. Get creative with Vapor Rub
This sounds like a strange male masturbation technique, but it can be quite pleasurable. Just rub a small amount of Vapor Rub on your hands and get to work.
The amazing hot/cold sensations are pretty intense. Just remember, you don’t need much. Overkill takes the amazing tingle to a more unpleasant burn if you aren’t careful!
3. Use the other hand
Have you ever tried working it with your non-master hand? If you use the other one, it takes more time for your brain to connect that it’s you that’s doing it.
This is where you let your imagination run wild and fantasize about who might be giving you a helping hand—which makes for some pretty hot self-loving, that’s for sure!
4. Watch some porn
An oldie but it never fails! Spice up your masturbation time by sticking on some of your favorite porn.
If you’ve never watched it before, it’s easy to find great free sites with lots of options to browse through. Find out what really gets you going and then sit back, relax, and enjoy!
5. Do it over clothes
You might not think this sounds like an official male masturbation technique, but it is. Dry rubbing yourself over clothes is a great way to build up tension and make the whole experience feel more erotic.
It’s really sensual as you’re almost teasing yourself. Plus, it leads to a pretty intense orgasm. If you can’t handle waiting, you can always start this way and move on to some skin-on-skin action later.
6. Get creative in the kitchen
Have you ever tried doing it in a bag of warm jelly? It might sound crazy to some, but if you’ve got an open mind and you’re willing to experiment, this actually feels pretty amazing.
The warm, wet, soft texture of the jelly is a major turn-on, and the best bit is you can ejaculate right inside and then just throw the whole lot away!

7. Tease yourself
Try rubbing yourself for a while, until you are pulsating with pleasure, and then stopping for a little while until you can’t bear it any longer, then start again.
Do this over and over again until the sensations build up and you can’t take the teasing anymore.
Your orgasm will be intense, long, and take over your whole body—what’s not to love about that?
8. Ball tugging
Remember that when it comes to male masturbation techniques, you need to think beyond just the penis.
Wait until you are just about to climax, and then give your balls a *gentle* pull. Doing so will increase the intensity of your orgasm, and you’ll cum like you never have before!
9. Get in tune with your body
There are so many places to touch yourself that you’ll find hot and horny, so why not spend some time exploring your body, touching yourself all over, finding your different pressure points, and so on.
Touch, rub, and stimulate almost every part of your body. Make sure you do yourself a favor and give your whole body attention when you are indulging in some self-loving!
10. Try different positions
Don’t get lazy with your self-love! Instead, try loads of different positions. You could be on your knees, with your legs in the air, lying on your front—get your body into different positions and use them to enhance your fantasy!
11. Lube it up
Lube is great for some sexy alone time, especially for circumcised men. Lubrication adds a little extra slip-and-slide to the action that feels exciting and stimulates the head of the penis.
Play around with different lubes, such as those with warming sensations.
12. Temperature play
This is kind of a fun male masturbation technique. Just fill up a small bowl with ice water and the other with warm water.
Dip your hand in your desired bowl until it comes to temperature and then use that hand to touch yourself. This is a fun and playful way to spice up the way you jerk off.
14. Grinding
This can actually be a pleasurable “hands-free” option for masturbating. Fold a body pillow in half and wedge your penis inside. Use this as a vagina-substitute as a soft and squishy way to a gigantic orgasm.
Pro tip? Don’t use the pillow afterward. In fact, throw it right into the wash when you’re done with it.
15. Use toys
This male masturbation technique involves sex toys. That’s right, sex toys aren’t just for girls. Incorporate them into your masturbation time by using a vibrator to stimulate your penis head, shaft, and sack as a form of foreplay.
We’ll go into detail about sex toys you men can use to masturbate in just a second, don’t you worry.
16. Kegels, Kegels, Kegels
Exercising your pelvic floor muscles on a regular basis is one of the smartest things you can ever do for your orgasm! These exercises strengthen your pelvic floor, the benefits of which we’ve already touched on.
To find your pelvic floor muscles, pee then stop. The same muscles you use to stop your urine flow are the same ones you’re going to tighten for a whopping three seconds and then release.
After 3-6 weeks of doing Kegels, you should notice your orgasms get stronger. It’s a great male masturbation technique.
17. Play with different strokes
Play with different techniques and find new sensations to add to your repertoire.
One method, the pepper grinder, involves using both hands on your shaft and twisting both hands as though you were grinding a pepper mill. Other men enjoy laying their penises flat and rubbing the head until washed over by a blissful orgasm.
18. Try the ‘squeeze’
The squeeze male masturbation technique is another way that you can delay your orgasm and prolong masturbation. It is also beneficial for premature ejaculation.
In order to do this, you need to get to the point of climax and then back off suddenly by holding the tip of your penis right below the head until the sensations go away. You can do it only once, or you can repeat it several times if you want.
19. Try a hands-free masturbation toy
A hands-free masturbation toy is a device that gives you pleasure with minimal effort. It’s usually powered by batteries or electricity. You will be able to lay back and enjoy the experience of masturbation and sensations and not have to do any work.
Hands-free masturbation toys give you the best of two words. You get to masturbate without wearing your arm out. This is really a dream come true for a lot of guys.
Male masturbation positions
We briefly touched on how changing your positions can make masturbation more interesting for you. But let’s get into the really nitty gritty with these specific positions you have to try.
1. Lying on your back
This is a very popular position for masturbation. It’s classic and allows plenty of room for movement. Plus, it’s comfortable and a good position to close your eyes and fantasize if you want or just concentrate on the sensations.
2. Standing supported
If you like to masturbate in the shower, this is a good position—but you don’t have to be in the shower to enjoy it.
You need a lot of core strength because it can be difficult to hold your standing position when you orgasm. So, make sure you stand against something solid like a wall.
3. Seated stroking
You’ll probably need to sit on the edge of a chair and let your testicles hang down. You could also use a stool if you want.
Seated stroking gives you full-body access to both lying down and standing. It’s also a good position for long masturbation sessions. You’ll also be seated when you orgasm too.
4. The stand-up guy
Standing up gives your masturbation session a sense of freedom.
There’s a different feeling with this position and it allows you to move around while you’re stroking yourself if you want to. The only disadvantage is that it can be tiring if you’re doing more than one session.
5. Lying face down
For this masturbation position, you need to be lying on your stomach. Then, start rubbing your penis against the mattress or a pillow while you’re thrusting.
This allows you to pretend that you’re having sex. You could also thrust in and out of your fist if you prefer.
6. The ottoman assist
An ottoman is a backless chair, and it can let you try a very different position. Sit on the ottoman lengthwise.
Once you’re sitting on the edge with your feet flat on the floor, lay back across it, letting your head dangle off the edge.
7. Upside down
While this is an unusual masturbation position, it can be interesting nonetheless. You should start by lying on your back with your knees pulled in and your butt against a wall.
Then, walk your legs up the wall and raise your butt and push yourself closer to the wall. You should only have the upper half of your torso and your head on the floor.
