Pilates reformer

It is composed of springs, skateboards, cables, wooden frame beds and other configurations.

Among them, due to the skateboard, there is a high requirement for the stability of the overall equipment, because it is necessary to control the skateboard not to move when you do motions, which increases the difficulty. The spring structure will also make the movement more difficult, and it will be more effective for muscle training and sculpture. The use of the cable makes it possible to perform movements that are difficult for Pilates on the mat, making it easier for the practitioner to grasp the movements. The adjustable rope lifter can help users better exert different resistance and strength, and can provide the best adjustment angle for physical therapy and sports training.

Because of the rope, the diversity and control ability of Pilates movements are increased, and the difficulty of the Pilates mat movements is increased or reduced. The track structure can increase the range of motion during exercise, and in conjunction with the instability of the spring, it better enhances the trainer's core control ability.
