“I’m in my early forties, a standard-sized man with a 33in waist and a 39in chest. I weigh 78kg and I’m just less than 6ft tall in my socks. Lifting weights, going on the odd run and doing a bit of stretching is how I stay fit and fairly in shape. Yet, for one day, I morphed into Superman with the help of “helix-mapping body-response technology”….When I first pull out what is swiftly becoming touted as “Spanx for men” — Equmen’s core precision undershirt…I’ve sliced 3in off my waistline in 7 seconds. Pulling on my now slightly too-big-for-me clothes, I look normal again, but better: I think I look a fraction taller and just a bit thinner. Leaving my flat, I feel firm and invincible, like a pumped-up football. At the Tube station, I arrogantly barge softer mortals out of the way, like Jelly Babies against a balloon. I’m solid. I’m a rock. I’m Equman!” See "Men are now getting there own body-slimming garments" - The Times |
