The resistance created by the Reformer’s pulley and spring system distinguishes it from a traditional Pilates mat class by challenging the strength and endurance unique to individual users. Reformers can produce visible results sooner — firmness and definition in arm, leg and abdominal muscles improve within a dozen or so regular sessions in most students. The Pilates Reformer is the perfect core-strength-building complement to any regular yoga practice.
