Pilates Equipment: Spring-Powered Fitness

Groupon’s study of the larger Pilates pieces gives you an up-close preview of your core-strengthening workout.

The Reformer: Despite its intimidating name and daunting springs and pulleys, the Reformer is quite gentle on the body. Its padded carriage slides in and out with customizable resistance—augmented by how many springs are attached—guiding users through movements that simultaneously strengthen and stretch the muscles. The versatile apparatus can support more than 400 exercises. Users control the carriage with their arms or legs using a variety of attachments, including handles, a foot bar, their minds, and a pull-down bar known as the tower. Each of these exercises focuses on elongating the muscles via controlled movements that resist the forces generated by the springs and the user’s own bodyweight.
