The idea that using more springs on the Reformer automatically leads to better results is a common myth.
In this video, I break down the truth about spring tension, and demonstrate how the right resistance—not the heaviest—supports the true purpose of Classical Pilates: gaining deep control over your muscles, joints, and movement patterns.

By moving more intentionally on the Reformer, we build functional strength, flexibility, and core stability, which improves the way we move through life—making everyday tasks feel easier and more supported.

👉 Whether you’re a Pilates beginner, a Reformer student, or a movement professional, this video will help you better understand how to use the springs for maximum benefit without overloading your body.
