Reformer Pilates is a type of exercise that allows traditional Pilates movements to be performed using specially designed equipment. Pilates equipment provides resistance to the body thanks to its functional features such as spring and sliding platform. In this way, the body works much more effectively by encountering resistance.

Within the scope of the question of what is a reformer, the reformer, which forms the basis of Pilates, is a type of Pilates equipment. More effort is required to do classic Pilates exercises with the reformer equipment.

The reformer, which has a bed-like frame, can be moved back and forth. There are hand and foot grips on one part of the platform. Such equipment allows exercises to be performed in a much more practical way. On the other hand, there are spring systems on the other part of the reformer equipment. Spring systems allow the body to encounter resistance.

Reformer Pilates is not done using only the reformer equipment. In addition, the Cadillac reformer equipment, which is a much more equipped form of the reformer equipment, the combo chair equipment defined as the Pilates chair, and the ladder barrel equipment known as an advanced chair; are among the equipment used in reformer pilates.
