1. What Is the Prone Bone Sex Position?
The Prone Bone sex position (sometimes called “prone bone” or “prone-entry”) involves the receiving partner lying flat face down on the bed (or mattress) while the penetrating partner enters from behind.

This position blends full-body contact, a different entry angle, and can feel deeply intimate due to the close, skin-to-skin alignment.
2. Why It Works: Back-Entry, Body Contact & Rhythm
- Angle & depth: Since the receiving partner is flat or slightly turned, the penetrating partner has a stable base and can control depth and pace more easily.
- Body contact: With the receiver lying prone, the top partner’s body presses gently against theirs — enhancing sensory feedback and closeness.
- Rhythm over thrust: Because many people find this position less about heavy thrusting and more about sliding, rhythm, and connection, it appeals to both adventurous and intimacy-focused couples.
One commenter noted: “Doggy/prone bone is easiest for me… lying prone”
- Variation friendly: It’s a great base for adding pillows, toys, or raising hips for more targeted stimulation.

3. How to Perform It – Step-by-Step Guide
- The receiver lies flat on their stomach or slightly to one side, on a comfortable surface. A thin pillow under the hips helps elevate the pelvis.
- The penetrating partner positions behind the receiver, aligning their pelvises and supporting themselves on knees or hands to control movement.
- Use plenty of lubrication, especially if there is full-body contact and fewer pauses.
- Start with slow, controlled sliding or rocking movements rather than heavy thrusting; once comfortable, adjust pace and depth.
- Maintain communication — check depth, comfort, angle. If the receiver feels pressure on their stomach, adjust hip elevation or angle.
- Variation: After warming up, you may transition into a higher-angle version: the receiver raises hips via pillow, or the top partner leans in more vertical for deeper penetration.
- Aftercare: Because the receiver is prone (face-down), ensure you spend time flipping over for face contact, cuddling, and recovery.
4. Variations & Enhancements (Including Toy Pairings)
Variations
- Hip-Elevated Prone: Receiver’s hips are raised with a wedge pillow, giving a steeper angle and deeper contact.
- Half-Side Prone: Receiver lies slightly turned (half-side), giving more access for the top partner and less strain on the back.
- Edge-of-Bed Prone: Receiver lies near the edge of the bed, top partner kneels behind and enters — great for height or penetration depth control.
Enhancements & Toys

- Consider pairing with a cock sleeve (see our Cock Sleeve Guide) to add girth or texture for either partner, especially useful for the top partner in control of rhythm.
- Try a vibrating sleeve or ring to allow the receiver or the top partner to feel dual stimulation.
- Use pillows or bolsters to elevate hips or support the upper body to reduce strain on arms/shoulders.

5. Comfort, Safety & Communication Tips
- Because the receiver is prone, face-to-face eye contact may be reduced; compensate with verbal feedback or pauses.
- The top partner’s weight may rest more on the receiver’s back or hips — use hands/pillows to support and avoid pressure points.
- If either partner experiences discomfort in lower back or neck, add pillows under hips or chest.
- Communicate clearly: “How’s the angle?”, “Do you feel too much pressure?”, “Would you like slower or deeper?”
- Use a quality water-based or silicone-based lubricant for smooth sliding and reduced friction.
- If you feel strain or pain, switch to a gentler variant (half-side, hip-elevated) rather than persist.
- Always ensure consent and comfort — this is essential for pleasure.
6. When to Use Prone Bone & Who It’s For

- Couples who enjoy rear-entry styles but want something with more body contact and less thrust intensity.
- When one partner wants to take a more receptive role, lying back and letting the other lead.
- As a transitional position during longer sessions — less athletic, more rhythmic.
- For height or size mismatch couples: raising hips or altering angle can compensate for height difference.
- If you want to switch the mood from fast and wild to slow and sensual.
