Thanks to the Kardashians, waist trainers have taken off. The stretchy, modern-day corsets are touted as a way to get a flatter tummy, improve your posture and cinch in your waist. But are they an unhealthy obsession? Do they undermine, or empower women? Superfad hosts Katie Kenny and Laura Walters explore these and other questions about waist trainers - and strap one on for a week - in the first episode on this new podcast from Stuff.
