What is a pilates reformer?

A pilates reformer is a specialized machine that consists of a platform that moves along a carriage, springs that provide resistance, straps that attach to your hands or feet, and a footbar that can be adjusted for different exercises. The reformer allows you to perform hundreds of exercises that target different muscle groups and joints in your body. You can adjust the resistance and difficulty of the exercises by changing the springs, straps, footbar, and your body position.
