Reason #2: The Pilates Reformer- A Technical, Precise, and Versatile Machine! Just what men like!

The Pilates Reformer is the most recognizable and popular piece of equipment in the Pilates menagerie! It's versatile beyond all imagination, and can be adaptable to meet all fitness levels from beginners to experts! The movements performed on the Reformer range from fundamental to extremely advanced, and can be used to target an area for rehabilitative needs, or engage the entire body for a complete fitness workout!

The Reformer is perhaps the most user-friendly apparatus included in the Pilates equipment series. It places the body in a comfortable, non weight-bearing supine position, and recruits the muscles in a balanced fashion. Students have praised its ability to re-balance the body, building strength and flexibility evenly on both the right and left sides, and easing tight joint areas to increase range of motion.

Stretches performed on the Reformer for areas such as the Hip Flexors, Hamstrings, and Adductor muscles cannot be duplicated as effectively on any other apparatus!

Reason #3: The Reformer Workout is Wonderful for Men!

Most men who exercise frequently are strong, but their muscles are incredibly tense. For this reason they likely have difficulty doing a strength and reach test (or sitting straight with their legs stretched out in front of them). This is because the male hamstrings tend to be very tight and inflexible. The answer is Pilates; which sculpts the body from the outside - making tight areas more agile. It also improves and makes many functional activities (things you do in your everyday routine) a lot easier on your muscles and joints. The Pilates Reformer provides an excellent way for men to stretch their tight muscles, while using gentle resistance from the Reformer springs and straps to build strength. Pilate trains seven key physical performance factors including posture, balance, stability, flexibility, coordination, endurance and functional strength – something all men could benefit from.

Pilates is a comprehensive head-to-toe workout, but it’s often misidentified as women’s exercise. In fact, it might surprise you that Pilates was originally created for men.

It was once widely believed that Pilate’s exercises were meant for women only. As compared to men, more women showed genuine interest in the innovative form of physical exercises developed by Joseph Pilates many years ago. The number of women seen at a Pilate’s studio was bigger than those of men. But now there is visible change. Men have realized the significance of Pilates and the number of men performing these special workouts is soaring worldwide. [read more...]
