What is Reformer Pilates?
Reformer Pilates is a controlled and effective workout that uses a specialised reformer machine to enable a wide variety of movements.
Unlike a traditional mat Pilates, the reformer adds resistance to challenge your muscles while supporting your body.
Reformer Pilates builds precision and control in every exercise and is ideal for anyone looking to:
-
Strengthen Muscles
-
Enhance Flexibility
-
Improve Posture
The Reformer Machine
The reformer machine is the cornerstone of Reformer Pilates. It turns traditional mat exercises into a dynamic, full-body workout.
Components of the reformer machine
The machine is made up of a flat, cushioned platform known as the carriage, which slides along tracks within the frame. The carriage is attached to springs of varying resistance levels, allowing you to customise the intensity of each exercise to suit your fitness level and goals.
Straps and pulleys are incorporated into the reformer’s design to engage both your upper and lower body. Handles are used for controlled movements of the arms, while footbars provide stability and support for leg-focused exercises.
The adjustable components of the reformer ensure a precise fit, accommodating people of all sizes and abilities.
Exercises you can do on a Pilates reformer
01
Core strengthening exercises
Core strength is central to Pilates, and reformer exercises like the plank, teaser, and leg circles are brilliant for targeting your abs and obliques. These moves also engage your glutes and back muscles, promoting overall body stability.
03
Low-impact cardio workouts
Many Reformer Pilates classes include high-energy yet low-impact workout sequences. Exercises such as jumping on the reformer’s footbar combine cardio and strength training, offering a great way to burn calories without stressing your joints.
02
Flexibility and stretching movements
The reformer machine is excellent for stretching exercises that enhance flexibility and mobility. With its adjustable resistance, you can practice deep stretches for your legs, glutes, and arms while maintaining proper form to reduce strain on joints.
04
Advanced techniques for athletes
Advanced reformer techniques are great for building muscle endurance, refining technique, and preventing injury. Movements like the pike or single-leg stretches focus on precision and power. These are particularly useful for athletes and people looking to up the intensity of their workout.
How does the Reformer Machine work?
The reformer machine works by leveraging resistance and movement. As you push or pull against the springs and footbar, your muscles are challenged to maintain form, balance, and control.
This combination of strength training and stretching enhances muscular endurance, improves posture, and promotes better body alignment.
Whether you’re performing core-strengthening planks or deep stretches for flexibility, the reformer machine offers an effective workout tailored to your needs.
