Benefits of Wearing A Waist Trainer

If you're on a mission to achieve a super small waist like your idol, Kim Kardashian or have always dreamed of having a Barbie doll-like body, there are less painful alternatives to going under the knife in a Rib Resection surgery to have a couple of ribs removed.

A less invasive and much cheaper alternative is through waist training, the process of reducing your waist size and accentuating your curves using a waist trainer, a tight-laced corset and shapewear shorts. These garments are meant to give the wearer an exaggerated hourglass figure. Waist trainers or shapewear have been around since 1500 (though known as a bodice then) but was made popular again by the popular Kardashians. Even if you're on the larger size, you can get a plus size waist trainer and you'll see the difference on your body instantly.  Unlike jeans or belts, they are extremely flexible and the stretch of these fibers is up to 500%. 

These are some of the benefits of wearing a waist trainer:

1.  Tucked in. The most obvious advantage of a bodysuit is what they were designed for: they stay tucked in!  There is no need to worry about your blouse or singlet popping out and having to thrust your hand down your skirt or pants to tuck it in place.

2.  Eating smaller food portions. Large meals may feel uncomfortable to consume when your midsection is under compression.  With a waist trainer or shapewear shorts on your body, you'll likely feel more comfortable eating smaller meals rather than large ones.

3.  Improvement in posture.  A waist trainer certainly does not allow you to slouch and keeps your posture straight and after a period of time wearing it, it becomes second nature to you to keep a good posture.

4.  More calories burnt.  When you wear a waist trainer during exercise, you will sweat profusely, especially around your waist area.  With that extra sweat, you will lose some water weight and calories.

Just make sure that you are getting the right size when you purchase shapewear – or any type of clothing for that matter.  If the garment is tight around the hip area especially it can constrict the blood circulation to the lower legs. One should use common sense and if there is discomfort, should attempt a larger size. Also remember not to wear shapewear and waist trainers for extremely long periods of time and never sleep in them.   

If you’d like to cover up those minor imperfections and give your body a more natural shape, a women’s shapewear or bodysuit added into your closet of arsenal attire might give you just the boost of confidence that you need.  To help you safe some money, you can get the best Black Friday deals at FeelinGirl.

Along with a healthy diet, exercise and proper shapewear, you will be on your way to achieving a permanent hour-glass figure 😉.
