What Lies Beneath
Give your body a bogus boost

If you spent the 4th like we did, eating and drinking more than humanly possible, you might have a problem looking put together this week.

Instead, here’s how to look like you’ve spent two months at the gym (by spending the equivalent of two month’s worth of gym fees).

Weight: Spanx Undershirts
Spanx — those spandex sausage casings that girls use to smooth out and slip into into bridesmaid dresses — are now available for men. Compression T-shirt, V-neck, and tank top styles sculpt your gut, make your pecs pop, and are invisible under clothes.
$55-58 at spanx.com

Height: Lift Kits insoles
More Nike Dunks than Dr. Scholl’s, Lift Kits are sporty insoles that boost the Tom Cruise-sized up to a full two inches. The cushioned neoprene gel insoles also relieve pressure on the spine, forcing your back to stand up straighter, adding extra (natural) height.

Girth: Equmen Precision Underwear
Equmen makes briefs and trunks that lift and streamline your junk, giving a Wonderbra-like effect in the pants. Moisture-wicking mesh fabric and anti-microbial properties keep your team dry and chipper.
$49-65 at equmen.com
