Do you really know? Can women really get a core-gasm from exercise?
Dec 20, 2025
Surprising yet true, women can experience orgasms from exercise! This phenomenon, documented by Alfred Kinsey, reveals that coregasms originate from internal muscle contractions rather than external stimulation. Which workouts are involved? Activities like yoga, weightlifting, and running can trigger this unique experience. Interestingly, studies suggest that around 40% of women have encountered this during physical activities. This highlights a broader understanding of orgasms, indicating they might not be exclusively sexual.

Episode notes
Orgasms Can Be Exercise-Induced
- Exercise can trigger orgasms in women through internal mechanisms rather than direct genital stimulation.
- The phenomenon is called a corgasm and originates in the core and pelvic muscles, not surface nerve endings.
Personal Report Of A Coregasm
- Holly Page described her exercise-induced orgasm as starting internally and then bubbling outward.
- Verywell Fit noted it began in the core and pelvic musculature rather than at the clitoris.
Which Exercises Trigger Coregasms
- Certain exercises engage the pelvic floor and perineum, making them likelier to produce corgasms.
- Abdominal exercises and weightlifting (planking/upper-body) topped the 2011 study's list, followed by yoga, cycling, running, and hiking.
