The anus is filled with nerve endings, and when properly stimulated, this area turns into a massive erogenous zone that can make your toes curl and cause you to experience some of the most massive orgasms of your life. That goes for both men and women, but you need to know how to properly train your anus to relax, expand and allow pleasurable anal play. The best tool for this job is to use an anal trainer that is designed to slowly and gradually train your anus. It is also why at HotCherry, we prepared the following guide on how to use anal trainers and how to reach the level of safe and comfortable anal play.

What Are Anal Trainers?

Anal trainers are sex toys specially designed for training the anus to expand safely and comfortably. These are shaped like butt plugs, anal beads, and anal dilators and come in progressively increasing sizes. The idea is to start with the smallest size and gradually work your way up until you can take the largest size safely or have your anus prepared for a penis, a dildo, or another anal toy. Now that you know what anal trainers are, let’s continue discussing how to use anal trainers to train your body.

How to Use an Anal Trainer?

First thing first, don’t be afraid to play with your anus and don’t shy away from exploring the treasures you can discover when engaging in anal play. Prepare mentally first, and if you have decided to do this, then you are ready. Make sure you have everything handy before you start playing, and follow this step-by-step on how to safely train your anus with an anal trainer:

Clean up before playtime

The anus is, you know, the place where poop comes out, so you should be comfortable with this before engaging in any type of anal play. Even if some poop makes an appearance during playtime, you should know it is OK, as it means your body is functioning properly. To best prepare for anal play, you should poop and take a shower, cleaning the anus well. If you want to go the extra step, then you can make an at-home anal douche and rinse the rectum. If you opt for this step, do it about 30 minutes before playtime to give your body time to relax and adjust.

Warm Up and Ease In with Fingers

Engage in foreplay if you play with a partner or even when you play alone. Engaging in relaxing, sexy activities will prepare your body for more comfortable play. The point is to not be self-conscious about anal play and to give your body time to relax, as when you are sufficiently relaxed, any anal teasing will be more comfortable, and your body will be less inclined to twitch when the anus is touched. Any sensation will be more pleasurable when you are aroused and will feel better, as the anus tends to relax the more aroused you get. Start the teasing with your fingers and test if your body is ready for insertion.

Lube Up and Go Slow

When you feel you are ready, you need to add a fair amount of lube – when we say fair, we mean a lot of lube. Since the anus is not self-lubricating like the vagina, it needs a lot of lube for things to glide easily. Whether you are using your fingers or are starting directly with an anal trainer toy, lube is your best friend. Rub the lube around the entrance and try to add some in the anus itself, and make sure you coat the entire anal trainer with compatible lube. You can’t go wrong with a larger amount of lube, as it will make things more comfortable both on insertion and when you take out the anal trainer.

Start slowly inserting the lubed-up anal trainer – gently press the toy against the anus and push out, and you’ll feel a gentle stretching of the sphincter muscles as the toy makes its way inside. Your body will slowly stretch and open up to receive the anal toy, and you’ll feel a gentle pressure and intense feeling. You will feel as the anus stretches, and as the anal trainer settles inside, you should feel a pretty intense feeling of fullness.

Let your body adjust to the sensation before you try to do anything else. The intense stretching feeling should ease after a few moments, allowing you to become comfortable. Don’t worry if you can’t get the entire anal trainer inside on your first try. It may be overwhelming at first, but hey, you can take it as a challenge and enjoy every try.

Once the anal trainer is in, you can go about your business while letting it stretch your anus. We advise you to wear it for about 10 minutes at a time and then take it out. You can also play with the anal trainer, like wiggling it around or pulling and pushing it, making small thrusts. It will help you relax and get used to the sensation.

You can experiment with different movements to find out what works best for you. If you are using a soft, flexible anal trainer, you can sit down with it to experience the full sensations. You need to use the smallest anal trainer if you are just starting, and after a while, you can move on to the larger model until you gain enough confidence and level of experience.

Anal Trainer Models

As we outlined above, anal play requires preparation, and the best way to do this is to use an anal trainer set. Here are the anal trainer models that you are likely to encounter:

  • Anal training sets – these are specifically designed toys you can use to train the anus and gradually stretch it and get it used to insert thicker toys.
  • Small butt plugs – the small butt plugs can be an excellent starter toy, and you can use it to ease into anal play to train your anus. The shape and small size are great for non-threatening anal play and gradual stretching of your back door.
  • Anal beads – the anal beads can also be perfect anal training toys that you can use to experiment with. Just select a model with a small bead size, and you’ll have a great toy to train your or your partner’s body.
  • Anal stretchers – these are very good for preparing your body for anal sex. The anal stretchers gradually stretch the anus and allow you to prepare for larger insertions.

Anal Play Safety Tips

We have an in-depth guide on how to stretch your anus and another guide on how to use butt plugs, and we invite you to read these and more from our blog to gain more knowledge on anal play. So, here we will only list the main safety tips we feel you must know so you can safely engage in anal training:

  • Use extra lube – always use extra lube when engaging in anal play. Also, make sure the lube you use is compatible with the material of your anal training toys. Use water-based lube with silicone toys and use silicone-based lube with glass and metal anal toys. We recommend you avoid using lubes with numbing agents, as these can cause more harm than good.
  • Slow & easy – going slow is important, especially when you are trying to insert a foreign object into your booty. Also, don’t try to shove large objects, but only use gradually tapered anal trainers that will open the gates to anal pleasure.
  • Breathe - taking deep breaths is important when you engage in anal play, as when you take deep breaths, your anus relaxes and allows you to more easily insert the butt plug, anal trainer, or even prostate toy.
  • Don’t force it – always take things slowly, and don’t force anything. Forcing things can cause you to tear the soft anal tissues and cause health problems. Your body will tell you when it is time to push for more.
  • Clean before and after play – always start with clean anal toys and wash everything after use. Besides cleaning your body, the anal trainers you use deserve a thorough cleanse. Use soap and warm water or sex toy cleaners to wash them, and occasionally, use a mild bleach solution to disinfect everything.

Final Words

If you feel ready to engage in anal play, choosing anal trainers and sticking to our step-by-step guide above is the most practical option to ensure the process goes smoothly. It’s important to remember that anal play shouldn’t hurt, and with enough practice, it can be the source of the most intensive orgasms of your life.
