Why Reformer Pilates Is One of the Most Effective Ways to Train

Reformer Pilates has rapidly become one of the most sought-after ways to build strength, improve posture and move with greater control. Unlike traditional gym workouts, the reformer offers constant, intelligent resistance through springs, creating a form of strength training that is low-impact yet incredibly effective.

At Infinity Reformer, we see first-hand how quickly clients begin to feel the difference. The reformer provides support where your body needs it and challenge where it matters most. This makes it suitable for complete beginners, athletes, pre- and post-natal clients, and those returning from injury.

One of the key benefits of Reformer Pilates is how deeply it works through the body without placing strain on the joints. Movements are slow, controlled and precise, allowing you to build true functional strength rather than simply chasing fatigue. Over time, this leads to improved posture, better balance, enhanced flexibility and a noticeable increase in overall body confidence.

Reformer Pilates is also highly effective for improving core strength. Every movement begins from the core, which means you are constantly training your deep abdominal muscles, pelvic floor and stabilising muscles of the spine. This is why many people turn to Pilates to support back pain, posture issues and long-term resilience.

Beyond the physical benefits, there is something uniquely grounding about Reformer Pilates. The focus on breathing, control and mindful movement creates a sense of calm that stays with you long after the session ends. Many of our clients describe it as both a workout and a complete reset.

At Infinity Reformer, our sessions are led by Lauren McAvoy, who brings expertise, warmth and intelligent programming to every class. Whether your goal is strength, recovery, mobility or confidence, Reformer Pilates offers a training method that adapts to your body and your lifestyle.
