Commitment - Proper training requires commitment, discipline and time to ensure safety and desired results (consistency is key). Once undertaken, you have to create a good plan and stick to it. This is not a casual fling, you have to be patient and really work at it to get what you want. This means every day…
Work Your Way Up – Start small! A good corset will shape to your natural body type with wear and then your body will shape to the corset. Start off with short sessions. As a general rule, I would begin with one hour daily, tightening to a comfortable level then increase by fifteen minutes per day (gradually increase the duration). You have to gradually tighten over time ensuring you are never uncomfortable. As you continue to wear your corset this will take care of itself. Just follow this simple rule “never pull so tight that it hurts“. You should always be able to move freely without any pain…
Track Your Results – Write down how long you train each day until you are able to wear the corset all day long (keep a journal!) Tracking your tightening is a bit less scientific. I visually inspect the laces, that is I look at how much of the lacing I am able to pull out over time when fully tightened. A good trick is to keep an eye on where you tie off. At first tie in the back, after a while you will be able to wrap the laces around and tie in front, then with more time you will be able to go all the way around yourself and tie off in the back. In between these points just tighten, wrap the laces around and you will gradually see where the ends of the laces lie as they “move” around your waist…
When To Wear - All the time would be great but with work and life in general this may not always be possible. Wear it whenever you can but as a rule you need to follow your natural movements (meaning during the day when you do whatever you do). You can sleep in your corset but this is not as effective because you need to move around in it for it to do its work. Instead, just dream about it while you sleep…
