How would you use 爬 in the second sentence?

I don't think 爬 is the correct word to be use, althought I do not have a better suggestion.  爬 will be an action of climbing up the leg instead of humping the leg.  However, the description on a movement of hip thrust does fit well

<p>I hope this isn't inappropriate, but neither of my two dictionaries had a proper translation. The closest one was <code>性交</code>, but to my understanding, that's the same meaning as <code>上床</code>. I'm looking for a word that will describe the physical action, whether sexual or not. For example</p>
<blockquote>
<p>He celebrated by humping the air</p>
<p>The guy at the club kept humping my leg on the dance floor.</p>
</blockquote>

I hope this isn't inappropriate, but neither of my two dictionaries had a proper translation. The closest one was `性交`, but to my understanding, that's the same meaning as `上床`. I'm looking for a word that will describe the physical action, whether sexual or not. For example

> He celebrated by humping the air

Hip thrust for instance can be translated as 臀部冲刺. A movement that is pretty similar to the “humping the air”.

Dog humping their owners can be translated as 爬. Which might be more appropriate for the guy at the club.
