Im thinking of training my waist.
But ive heard its dangerous for your health/body.

I wanna get about 10ins off my waist.

Anyone done it and survived without harm?
Or is it as risky as they say?

Help!!!

Do you want kids?
If yes then dont do it simple as!
it warps your insides, gives you back problema and lets just say when on some ancient history tv programme dig up your bones they are going to think you were an alien! lol x

I have a couple of corsets but I have just orderd a custom made one and am hoping to reduce my waist by 4". I probably won't wear it 24/7 to be honest and I have never really thought much of the health risks but I am concerned about it affecting you internal organs if you plan to have children later in life - Can it cause any damage to that extent?

I've done my kids and have taken to wearing corsets as much as I can, I'm definately considering waist training now

I wouldn't advise anyone under about 20-21 to start waist training. I know there are a lot of people who'd disagree with me but really until then, the body is still developing. I personally think the last thing you want to do is mess around with that because you could be letting yourself in for all kinds of problems.
