    OP: Waist training with corsets is done with tight lacing, steel boned corsets. To get any real benefit in terms of actual shaping (waist smaller than hips/bust, 'hourglass figure'), one must wear the corset usually for most of the day. Serious tightlacers only take them off for showering, and that is all - they are worn the rest of the 24 hours including in bed sleeping or what have you. This is done for extended periods of time to mold the figure. Again, serious tightlacers wear theirs for years. Really, it is not cut out for most people for the reasons everyone has been mentioning. Do your own research though. Lots of people here have given great information (as MFP peeps always do!), but if you are thinking about this, there is no substitute for research.

    YEP!
    And you might want to look into "body recomposition" - google that!
    I have had some limited, slow results engaging these principles.

    Waist training can give you more of an hourglass figure but it won't give you nice abs or reduce fat obviously... I'm cool with my body the way it is, though. I avoid heavy oblique work to maintain my natural slightly hourglass waist.
