It's really hard to lose weight yet when we heard about celebrities having a slimmer midsection in a short period without much effort, we would surely tempted to try it. Waist training is becoming a trend because Kim and Khloe Kardashian have posted selfies showing the waist-clincher. This might be the solution to have a slimmer figure, but we've decided to list down some of the risks of this waist training.


#1 - The waist clincher would make you hard to breathe as it squishes your lungs and ribs. You might passed out from wearing it for too long. You will also have fractured ribs, compressed lungs, and crushed organs in long-term.


#2 - Experts say the waist training doesn't really work as one cannot reduce the fats stored in one particular area of the body. The fat will go right back to where it was no matter how long your wear the corset.


#3 - Waist training can also damage the nerve in the groin which lead to meralgia paresthetica (painful burning and tingling of the thigh).


#4 - Several studies shown that tight, and constrictive garments cause dermatitis, and abdominal pain.



#5 - Waist training also affect digestive system as it pushes the bowel down, damaging the internal organs.
