"One of the most popular trends we see thanks to celebrities is workout waist training. In fact, when many of our customers share their shapewear transformations on social media, workout bands are what we see the most," explains Ruben Soto, CEO of HourglassAngel.com.

Similar to the Active Band Waist Trainer by Amia ($54), a workout waist trainer can instantly slim your midsection while increasing perspiration at the same time. Designed to be worn while you work out, the garment comfortably slims 1-3 inches from your waist while you wear it, ensuring you always look your best at the gym. It helps to keep you motivated and on-track to your long-term fitness goals.

"The Active Band Waist Trainer embodies everything that Amia is known for: innovative approach to design and an unwavering attention to quality," says Soto. "It's made with a durable latex core that's specially designed to increase thermal activity and stimulate perspiration in your midsection, making it the perfect complement to your workout wardrobe." You can also wear the Active Band like a corset underneath other clothing for work or weekend-wear.

Do's and Don't The Corset Diet

With the "Human Jessica Rabbit" creating headlines for wearing a corset 23 hours a day, the corset diet phenomenon ignited by Jessica Alba is trending once again. But, how do you safely try waist training?

"There are plenty of high compression garments that will produce the desired results instantly (general high quality shapewear)," explains Ruben Soto, CEO of leading e-commerce shapewear site Hourglassangel.com. "With that said, there are products that are best to increase thermal activity in the midsection and others that are best for more traditional waist training."
Corsets such as the Amia Cincher are recommended for an instant 1-3 inch reduction of the midsection. This cincher works due to the PowerLatex core that stimulates thermal activity and perspiration in the midsection.

Steel-boned waist training corsets such as our Black Cashmere Underbust Corset are meant to reduce inches over time through high compression from tight-lacing techniques. The result overtime is the readjustment of the lower ribs for a more defined, hourglass waist. Typically, someone would wear the corset comfortably for a short amount of time to build up tolerance. Then to make it tighter and wearing it for a longer period of time.
Do’s

• Wear the garment for a few hours at a time to build tolerance.
• Wear the corset for longer periods after you become comfortable.
• Select a proper fitting item.
• Discontinue use if you feel any discomfort.

Don’ts
Do not continue usage if you experience any of the following:

• Numbness in the legs
• Shortness of breath
• Sharp stomach pains
• Pinching

For accelerated results, we recommend the following:

• Prepare smaller meals for your diet while corseting as you will become fuller faster and with less food.
• Practice core muscle training.

The Corset Slimming Secrets

Let me start by saying, I am not certain regarding the accuracy of this statement, but here goes.

Kim Kardashian has allegedly turned to a weightloss secret Jessica Alba made famous: the corset. A source was reported by Grazia magazine as saying "Kim wants her figure to look absolutely perfect on her wedding day. Wearing a corset at night is extremely uncomfortable but has a proven record of results, and with six weeks to go, Kim is up for anything."

According to HourglassAngel.com, "We suggest that women use shapewear that fits, and that they are comfortable in what they use. Many women make the mistake of buying shapers that are too small in hopes of increasing the compression level of the garment."  They go on to say, "There are plenty of high compression garments that will produce the desired results without compromising comfort. When women use shapewear that is not the proper fit, it leads to being uncomfortable, an undesired feel and poor posture. It is necessary to follow a product's size chart to find the best fit for your body."


What is the secret? The theory is that the science of compression will help support long-term slimming. The latex lining stimulates thermal activity and perspiration, mobilizing fat and toxins. You will see results as soon as you put it on. Add time, plus a healthy diet and active lifestyle and you're going to love the edge a garment like this gives you.

What to wear?  HourglassAngle.com believes their most popular prescription for trimming inches, a power latex core is top pick. For example, the ShapeBand ($54.90) slims your waist dramatically and immediately. Best of all, they have stated that some users wearing it 8-10 hours a day for 30 days report sustained reduction of 1-4 inches in the midsection.

For the record, Apparel Search has not tested this theory in anyway.  We are only reporting on what information has been shared with us by HourGlassAngel.com
