All you need to know about fisting

Imagine a fat finger plowing your well-stretched ass and massaging your prostate. Now imagine five of them. I’m getting hard just by thinking of it. Fisting can bring you pleasure like nothing else. It causes unique stimulations. But only if you do it right. So, you should make sure you go through all you need to know about fisting before you engage in this activity. Any penetration that involves the whole hand is considered fisting (handballing, fist-fucking). That includes sticking a hand into an asshole, pussy, or mouth, but I’ll focus on anal fisting since I know it’s your favorite.

Pain and pleasure

First of all, I need to say something about associating fisting with pain. It shouldn’t hurt! Fisting is on the borderline of pleasure and pain, but it’s not supposed to be uncomfortable or dangerous. The ass needs to be adequately prepared so it can stretch naturally. When muscles are relaxed, the butt can painlessly open and let the hand in.

That means that you should stop if it starts to hurt. That is why it’s crucial to talk to your partner during fisting. When you’re taking a fist up your ass, always tell your partner how you feel. Tell him if he’s going fast or being too rough. It’s good to take breaks when you need them.

And if you are the one who is elbow-deep inside your partner’s ass, pay attention to your lover’s reactions and stop if he tells you to stop. Generally, you should feel on your hand when the muscles are relaxed and when they’re not.

The feeling of fullness

What’s so great about fisting? For the fistee, this act is very intense. Feeling your skin and muscles stretch is very satisfying. And so is the feeling of fullness. Imagine a big butt plug, only the sensation is even stronger.

Also, many people cum the hardest when they have a fist plowing their asshole. I’ll tell you one thing about fisting orgasms. They’re fucking loud! Fisting is an extreme sex act, so the orgasms it causes sound and feel very strong. Even when fisting doesn’t directly cause an orgasm, it still helps get there.

Fisting is also very exciting for the person drilling someone’s hole with a hand. The intimacy, the element of power, knowing how deep inside of your partner’s body you are – it’s very hot.

Where there’s ass, there’s poop

Okay, maybe ass play doesn’t always involve unintentional pooping, but you still need to have that in mind, so your fist-fucking session is not ruined with an unexpected situation. You should know that there is a slightly bigger chance for this to happen during fisting than during penetration with a cock or a toy. That is because the fist usually goes deeper and reaches to and past a muscle called the distal sphincter, which separates the anus from the upper rectum and colon. Think of it as a lid, behind which the poop is stored. Cock, fingers, and dildos can’t reach that deep, so they have less chance for relaxing that muscle and causing it to open. That’s why I recommend emptying your bowls or douching before fisting.

Practice and go slow

If you think this is all you need to know about fisting, and you can now jump to action, I’ll have to disappoint you. We still need to cover the most important part – how to actually do it.

Preparation is crucial! And it can take a few weeks if you’ve never been fisted before. Compare the size of your hand and the size of an average cock or a toy, and you’ll understand why it’s important to go slow. You might want to start with a dilator set with butt plugs in different sizes. Every size should be used a few times (read: two or three times a week) before moving to a bigger one. After several weeks, your muscles and skin will become more flexible, and you will get used to them being stretched. Only then can you move on to taking a fist in your ass.

How to fist

Let’s move on to some tips for the first-time fister. You can prepare your lover with some rimming or fingering to relax the muscles. Then you move on to fisting.

Despite what many people think, you don’t go in with the whole fist right away. Here’s how you actually start. You know that thing that Italians do with their fingers, when they put together all five fingers in the shape of a cone? It’s called Italian emphasis hand, and that’s what you need to do.

Insert the tip of the cone (fingers) first and then slowly push in the rest. Keep your hand there without moving it for a moment so your partner can get used to the feeling. When you are knuckle-deep and feel the muscles relaxing and not resisting, you can slowly open your hand and curl it into a fist.

Before going into the full fist-fucking mode and shoving your hand in and out, you can try more gentle movements. Slightly open and close the fist or move your fingers. This is less intense, but it still gives powerful sensations. Keep in mind that that can be enough for the first time, as your lover might not be able to take more than that on the first try. It’s okay to limit the first session to those gentle motions and go deeper or rougher another time.

All you need to know about fisting and more

One vital thing is lube. As you know, the asshole can’t lubricate itself. So, it is essential to use a lot of lube so everything can go smoothly. Dryness is unpleasant even when just a finger enters the ass, let alone a whole fist.

Aside from lubricant, it’s helpful when the fister wears latex gloves. They make it easier to slide a hand in the ass and prevent the injuries and small tears that nails or hangnails can cause to the sensitive tissue of the anal wall. Plus, it’s more hygienic that way because you can just toss them away after the play. Don’t forget that there is still an STI risk (although small), especially if there are open cuts on the hand, and wearing gloves can help avoid that.

Fisting can lead to extraordinary sensations and many screaming orgasms, but only if you do it right. It’s wise to have realistic expectations and prepare for this intense act. So, go slow, use a load of lube, and work that gaping hole until you bust your nut.
