Daily Exercise Steps
01 Leg Circles
Leg circles in Reformer Pilates are a fantastic exercise to improve hip mobility, strengthen the core, and tone the lower body. To perform leg circles, lie down on the Reformer machine with your head resting on the headrest and your feet placed in the straps.
Begin by extending your legs straight up towards the ceiling, keeping them together and your core engaged. Slowly start to draw a circle with your legs, moving them outward, downward, and then back together in a smooth, controlled motion.
The Hundred
02 The Hundred
The Hundred is a foundational Reformer Pilates exercise that targets core strength and stability.
To perform this exercise, start by lying on your back with your legs lifted to a tabletop position and your arms extended alongside your body.
Engage your core, lift your head and shoulders off the carriage, and begin to pulse your arms up and down in a controlled manner while breathing deeply—inhale for five counts and exhale for five counts.
Elephant Exercise
03 Elephant
The Elephant exercise on the Reformer is a key Pilates movement designed to stretch the hamstrings and spine while strengthening the core and improving balance. To perform this exercise, stand on the Reformer with your feet against the shoulder blocks and your hands on the footbar.
With your legs straight and hips lifted, round your back and engage your core as you slowly push the carriage away with your feet, then draw it back in with control. This movement promotes flexibility in the spine and hamstrings while enhancing core stability, making it an integral part of a well-rounded Pilates routine.
Plank Variations
04 Plank Variations
Plank variations on the Reformer are a powerful addition to any daily Pilates routine, focusing on enhancing core strength, stability, and overall body alignment. In these exercises, you'll position yourself in a plank on the moving carriage of the Reformer, challenging your balance and control.
Variations can include holding the plank while moving the carriage in and out, performing knee tucks, or adding arm and leg lifts. It is a simple routine to perform daily.
