The present application relates generally to the field of underwear and undergarments. More particularly, the present application relates to a novel undergarment that induces caloric burn while the person wearing it goes about his or her daily activities. An objective for the underwear is to increase exercise of body muscles used in daily living. In one embodiment, the present application provides a novel undergarment and/or shaper with carefully positioned non-stretch bands, or the equivalent thereof, that are relatively more resistant (i.e., less stretchy or elastic) than the fabric that is used to construct the remainder of the undergarment. These bands have a direct effect on muscles that would normally be activated during regular activity and cause them to be exercised to a further degree, but in a gentle manner. The effect, which in many cases is slightly perceptible, is felt while the wearer goes about his or her daily routine.
