Waist trainers took Instagram by storm with celebrity endorsed posts. The hypothesis behind these corsets is that they will shrink your waist. Women practicing this routine should wear the garment for around 3 hours; some of them even exercise with it on. But, what harms could the little trend have on your organs?
Let’s discover the pros and cons of waist trainers.
Shaping women
Hollywood celebrities love to waist train as it’s a surgery free alternative for a slimmer, curvier waist. The garment covers the entire core and fits very tight. Sometimes, a lot of women can’t even breathe with it on. Which leads us to think of the effect it has on internal organs. "Once you take the garment off, your body will return to its usual shape. It’s also uncomfortable, restricts your movements, and if you wear it really tight, it can even make it difficult to breathe and theoretically could cause rib damage.” said, Mary Jane Minkin, M.D to Women’s Health Magazine.

Logically, if you’re compressing something together it will accommodate itself. Everything that is practiced to an extreme could be harmful and lead to negative consequences. When you purchase a waist trainer, make sure that it’s a size that properly fits. Overtime, your waist will begin to shrink, but this isn’t going to suddenly happen.
A lot has to do with a healthy diet and exercising – waist trainers are an aid for women who are trying to become slimmer. Keep in mind that our great grandmothers wore corsets all the time and they turned out just fine.
