WAISTED !!!! The Hottest , Newest "Fitness" trend to hit the scene, Thanks to some A list celebrities and Famous Instagramers. Waist training has become a sensation almost overnight. Women looking to have a Kim K. body or Beyoncé waist are now Snatching it in to create the definition they desire. Vendors are promoting waist trainers as Fitness Equipment, marketing with Filtered models and catchy hashtags like #whatwaist #Waisted and #snatched.
But can you really lose weight by simply Compressing your body in with a Waist Trainer or Waist Cincher ? Can waist training alter your bone structure to the perfect "Hour glass" figure women desire ? Or is this just another Fad to hit the scene, making vendors quick money and leaving customers with little to no results ?
I asked women to share their experiences and results. To no surprise the generally public were all #TeamWaistTrain . To gain a more educated opinion , I ordered a Waist Trainer from a local vendor for $45. (I am a size medium or 34 depending on how the vendor orders them.) The first fitting was very snug and hard to latch, but quickly got very comfortable.
My usual training program combines boxing cardio with body weight plyometric and strength training. I noticed my breathing pattern did have to adjust to the constrictions of the corset but was not unbearable. I can say that my core was more engaged and my posture was corrected for proper technique
throughout the entire workout.
The Vendor Suggested that I wear the Waist Trainer for 8 hours a day for maximum results and a week later I was on the second latch. It was more intense but fit just fine , I could definitely feel the sensations of the trainer more on this latch than before. This change had me questioned this technique more. Did I lose an inch in a week ? Did my corset stretch?
The Results after a workout : I noticed that my core appearance was slimmer , however that is because the waist trainer makes you sweat more = Spot Reduction
Ladies don't allow the temporary lost of water weight get your hopes up. once you take a shower or rehydrate the results would almost instantly disappear. I challenge you to put the same effort into proper nutrition and exercise as you do to
Quick Fix fads and Diets.
My personal Opinion : Waist Training is just another fad, Vendors are making money off of sheer laziness. if you want long lasting results put in the work . Eat healthy, Exercise frequently and get your own results.
My professional opinion : Waist trainers can be helpful when attempting to maintain correct form during weight lifting or performing certain exercises. However Waist trainers will NOT assist you in weight loss, It will NOT alter your genetic bone structure.Waist trainers are undergarments , much like a body shaper or Spanx.
* In some instances Waist training will assist you in molding your core as you workout and eat healthier to drop BODYFAT ! The Core is all about Proper NUTRITION ! Do the work !!!!
Here it is:
“[waist reduction] best achieved with proper diet and exercise…”So you’re telling me that the 2 most important components to weight loss, healthy eating and regular physical activity, just so happen to work EVEN when I wear my corset?
OF COURSE YOU WILL
It doesn’t matter WHAT you wear.
Diet and physical activity will promote overall weight loss(waist included), no matter what. So how about this—and don’t let me lose you now. How about we don’t buy a waist trainer, and ONLY try the exercise and proper eating thing for a while, that way you can save your +$50.
And as for the “before” and “after” pictures you WILL find some sort of weight-loss transformation from these waist training pages, and all of them cite exercise and eating right as major factors in weight loss. So who is to say it was the corset that did the trick?
Wise up ladies !!! Save your money and your time ! There is only one way to get and maintain health inside and out and that is with hard work, exercise and nutrition.
Be Fit. Fine and Flawless
