Any ladies ever try waist training?

They can fracture ribs & thus cause organ damage + obstruct breathing! You're unable to spot reduce, so everything'll return to where it was; once removed! It won't help you lose weight! It's sort of like taking money out of your checking account & putting it into your savings account! You'll still have all of the money but it's just transferred!

Totally get what you guys are saying. And I agree. Like I said in my original post. Organs and bones are positioned a certain way for a reason.

What I'm talking about more is he stretchy "corset like" trainers. Not actual corsets with steel bowing and stuff. Those should be used for costumes and sexy time haha.

I have just seen so many pictures and stuff of women in waist trainers working out. Was wondering everyone else's thoughts on them.
Are they suppose to make you sweat more in the belly area, therefore making people think they lose more weight there?
I dont know what the hype about them is so I was just curious if people had actually used that as a weightloss or body manipulating method.

Just all the curiosity in the world going through this mind ha

A they don't work like the way they claim them to. Plus I would rather be able to breath when I work out. There was a study a while back saying that they actually make people lose some of their stomach muscles by not allowing you to tighten your core while doing you workout and limiting your movements.

Tried it, hated it.. my waist actually got an inch bigger

Ok first of.. it's stupid but here's what's gonna happen if you try it

1. It will steal your core strength - And if you workout wearing it, it will do most of the core workouts for you, planks will be way to easy cause the waist trainer will be doing the hold.. so you're not gonna get any abs or a beautiful toned tummy
2. As soon as you stop wearing it, your waist will go back to normal pretty quickly
3. If you get a waist trainer that's actually tight enough to alter your rib bones and organs you're putting yourself in a lot of danger. It can effect your breathing, make you faint and bruise/break your ribs.

I wore one for a week, just to see what the fuss was about.. When I started it my measurement where 34-25-34but for some reason I got bigger around the waist after wearing it and ended up as 35-26-34.. took about 2 weeks to get my 25 inch waist back and I truly hated wearing it.

Just do a lot of core instead of waisting money on something that's just a marketing thing.

I use latex waist cincher. My waist has actually gotten smaller (an inch). It's comfortable, helps with my posture, and gives me a better shape. It redistributes fat to your *kitten*. It definitely makes me sweat more. Doesn't inhibit my breathing and isn't tight like an actual waist trainer where it would mess up my organs. I think it's helping me. The compression helps reduce my food intake. I like it. I wouldn't recommend a steel boned trainer/corset. Even if it doesn't actually work, I feel better about myself, I look better when I wear it, and it definitely gives my girls a push-up, even in the crappiest of bras.

However you're losing, your core strength, meaning your stomach muscles'll become flabby due to muscle wasting & thus'll eventually look like fat. I thought that that the point of wearing such a thing, was to look better; not worse? This is what happens to astronauts in space, a lack of gravity, prevents the muscles; from having a purpose & thus they'll become useless globs, if they stay; in that environment extensively!

Ive heard those are really bad for you, but have seen celebrities wear them.

Ive also seen people say that it's hard to get the right size one online too.

As long as you don't go crazy with it, you'll be fine.
