“Tight Lacers” - Corset Training by Jessica Suarez, LVN (2)Women that engage in the practice of corset training or waist training are known as “tight lacers.” Tight lacers wear their tightly laced corsets or waist cinchers in an effort to achieve a slim waist and sometimes the shape of the ribcage may be altered as well. Tight lacers wear their corsets for a minimum of 12 hours a day and up to 20 to 23 hours a day, only taking them off to shower and exercise. Celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Beyoncé speak loudly of waist training. As a result, many women and even teen girls have begun to join in on the trend of “waist training” without knowing the negative affects it can have on their body or the proper way to wear a corset.

So here are a few tips to help you to achieve your hourglass body shape. Let’s start with the corset purchase- quality matters! A good, quality corset has multiple layers and panels for strength and durability. STAY AWAY from lingerie designs like Fredrick’s or Victoria’s secret. Go with a shop that specializes in waist training. Otherwise you will waste your money and not get the results you want. Now to the fun part…Wearing it. The key to corset training is to get professional advice before you start to wear it on a daily basis, and getting fitted to find something that fits your body shape well and is not too tight.

Can’t get professional advice? A good corset will shape to your natural body type with wear and then your body will shape to the corset. The key point that most women do not know it’s that it should not be extremely tight to the point where you can’t breathe; it should just be snug enough so it’s comfortable to wear. Also, if you find yourself feeling that it is time to take it off, then do so.

Start with short sessions. A general rule, begin with one hour daily then gradually increase your duration. Most important, DO NOT SLEEP IN IT! A lot of women believe that by sleeping in the corset they will have faster results. That is incorrect; in fact, the corset is not at all effective while you’re asleep because you need to be moving around in it for it to do its work. It actually is important to wear a corset or waist cincher appropriately to avoid any harm to your body. For instance, wearing it excessively will squish your lungs and ribs, which makes it hard to breathe. Some women have actually passed out from wearing one for too long, says Christopher Ochner, Ph.D. And if you keep wearing it for an extended period of time, it’s not pretty- thinkcrushed organs,compressed lungs, and fractured ribs. According to Mary Jane Minkin, M.D., “Medically, it doesn’t make sense that cinching your waist tightly will make it permanently smaller. Once you take the garment off, your body will return to its usual shape.” The efficacy of this waist training trend is clearly debatable. Here are a few positive and negatives to consider before trying a corset:

PROS:

  • Waist training can help create a small waist and an hourglass shape
  • Can help with posture and back support
  • Can help tighten skin after pregnancy or extreme weight loss

CONS:

  • Could create trouble breathing
  • If done in excess and improperly could cause your muscles to weaken leading to muscle atrophy
  • Could possibly reshape the bones
  • Uncomfortable
  • Restricts movements

“Tight Lacers” - Corset Training by Jessica Suarez, LVN (2024)

FAQs

Does Tightlacing work? ›

When you pull the laces tight, the garment provides firm compression at the midsection, which can help the wearer have a flat belly and a waistline that is several inches smaller. This effect only lasts until you take the corset off. The tissues around your midsection are soft and will return to their resting position.

What is the difference between waist training and Corseting? ›

Waist cinchers won't alter your shape semi-permanently like a corset can, but you can wear a cincher to the gym. Exercising is something that you can't do in your corset! Corsets can help you to achieve dramatic hourglass proportions for your next cosplay or big event.

How long does it take to see results from a corset? ›

Just like waist training results in general, how soon you will see changes to your body depends on a ton of factors. We've seen people with changes to their shape in as little as a month, but most take it slow and easy with their waist trainer. The longer you stick with it, the more dramatic results you will achieve.

What are the dangers of tight lacing the effects of the corset? ›

While not usually deadly, wearing a tightly laced corset can be quite harmful to the wearer. They can reduce lung capacity, cause shortness of breath and fainting, produce skin irritations, compress the ribs, weaken back and chest muscles and have even been known to cause organ deformity.

Can corset reduce belly fat? ›

sorry, no. Waist training with a corset doesn't magically melt body fat, but it can make some big changes to your body! Fat loss is achieved when you use more calories than you bring in to your body - through a combination of diet and exercise. Corsets don't target fat loss, as much as we may like.

Where does the fat go when corset training? ›

Scientists think that the fat in the waist region is converted to carbon dioxide and respired out during corset training. More so, when you compress the fats, your body responds by sweating, metabolizing your fats into carbon dioxide. You literally breathe the carbon dioxide out normally.

Can a corset permanently shrink your waist? ›

A common misassumption it that corset training for just a few months can permanently reduce your waist size. Unless you're using it as a weight loss aid then no it can't, sorry.

Does waist training flatten your stomach? ›

Here's the short answer: Wearing a waist trainer on its own will not reduce belly fat. However, wearing a waist trainer in conjunction with routine exercise and healthy eating habits can aid your weight-loss efforts and help your waistline look slimmer and smoother, in addition to other benefits.

Does waist training actually work? ›

Some people may indeed experience weight loss after wearing a waist trainer, Ayim noted — but any pounds dropped are likely to be water weight. The garments are heavy and don't breathe well, so while wearing one, you're likely to sweat more, and weight lost this way will quickly return.

Do waist trainers actually shape you? ›

The name — waist trainer — suggests that the product is literally training your waist over time to become slimmer. But in fact, as Dr. Wakim-Fleming points out, this isn't really possible. And what waist trainers do achieve is only temporary.

What is the difference between tightlacing and corset? ›

Tightlacing (also called corset training) is the practice of wearing a tightly laced corset. It is done to achieve cosmetic modifications to the figure and posture or to experience the sensation of bodily restriction.
