For those who visit the gym regularly and have goals to achieve, a short waist trainer is right for you. This trainer style is 8 inches in length and focuses explicitly on the waist, squeezing it inward. Because of this natural squeeze in the core, there is more play in the hips, and your muscles have room to expand.

The 10 inch style is designed for a little more coverage than the 8 but not as much as the 12. It is our most popular torso length and one of the most comfortable to workout in because it is not so long so it provides for better mobility of the body and not so short offering more coverage of the torso. 

The goal is to move through the hook enclosures and make progress inward. For additional compression, you can even layer the 5-inch Mini Squeeze over the top to enhance the focus on the waistline. 

A long torso waist trainer is 12 inches in length, and we recommend following the size chart for accurate overall sizing. The longer length offers more coverage and pairs well underneath clothing as it pulls you in and smooths you over in more areas.

The coverage design provides back support and only a medium compression, so it’s less restrictive while working out. Due to the increased coverage offered, it is best for woman with a longer torso again we recommend following our size guide and measuring to make sure this torso length will fit your body. The targeted areas will experience fat oxidation through sweat and decrease your waist size at a faster rate.

The differences between short and long torso waist trainers come down to the variations offered between styles, either 8 inches or 12 inches. You may wear both in and out of the gym, or while you’re out and about. It’s essential to obtain accurate measurements of your waist before deciding the best style for you to know what size to buy. After that, determine if you prefer an aggressive waist squeeze or a full-coverage compress.
