This is a secret that harkens back to the dawn of …er, my relationship with Chris.  But so secret is this maneuver, so insanely cool, that spies and ninjas are fighting each other right now for the opportunity to steal it first.

That secret.  That awesome. (P.S. This is totally safe for work.  Unless the sheer bodacity of the idea explodes your computer, in which case your eyebrows were a small price to pay.)

The Kiss Up

What you will need:

  • 2 love muffins
  • 1 floor
  • high octane attraction

Lay on the floor, preferably somewhere clean.  Have your beloved assume push up position above you.  Commence push ups!

This is where the super secret twist comes in.  Every time he is on the down portion of the push up, you should be the recipient of a kiss!

In the Love Bungalow, we throw down with as many kiss ups as my age plus one for good luck.  Did I mention that I am in charge of counting?  [commence evil laughter]

The Next Level

One could lay there passively, the recipient of the affectionate awesome.  But one could also throw down a little work out of their own.

Behold the Tandem Kiss Up…

As he pushes up, use a crunch maneuver to meet his lips.  While your muffin is working out their biceps, you will be ab-tacular!

You’re welcome.
