can be GOOD or BAD.
Any bolt made of unyielding substance is bad, because the muscles soon discover. that their work is being mechanically done for them and then they tend to throw in their hand and gradually become more atrophic.
The perfect belt, therefore, should give with the abdomi- inal muscles and thus promote their activity and incite them to do their normal work more efficiently.
It is the Charnaux Corset Balt alone which has all these qualifications.
