The springs provide resistance from the machine. The rest of the resistance is provided by your own body weight. The springs hook on the spring bar, and different springs can be unhooked to increase or decrease the resistance.
Your instructor will tell you which springs to use for each exercise. Beginning students are never expected to know which springs to use. The carriage is the part you put your body on. The carriage is moved by pushing against the foot bar, or by pulling the straps or ropes at the other end of the Reformer. The carriage glides back and forth along the inside of the frame, responding to the effort you exert and the amount of resistance set up by the springs. Reformer exercises can be done lying down, sitting, kneeling or standing on the carriage.
The straps are connected to pulleys at the top end of the Pilates Reformer. The straps have handles on the end that you can grasp to pull or push the carriage. You may also be asked to thread the straps through the handles in order to work with your feet in the straps. Again, the basic principle is that you will be pushing or pulling yourself on the carriage against the resistance provided by your own body weight and the springs.
"Having taken up Yoga, Pilates and running all in the last 6 months I have a renewed vigour for fitness and feel the combination has helped me to become stronger and more lean and toned having lost 11lbs and dropped a dress size. The shape of my body has changed and I feel more lean and in proportion. The Yoga and Pilates are helping me to improve my strength and felxibility and I just love going to the classes." - Eileen Jackson

"Having sedative job, and as a result not very active lifestyle, I am finding Pilates and Yoga classes a great saviour from giving up on oneself completely. I used to get really bad neck & back pains that would stop me from doing things around the house all the time, and since I started attending Pilates (about 2 years ago), pain has gone. After Yoga and Pilates classes I always feel energised, refreshed and in a better mood. Nisha is a world class instructor, classes are always challenging and interesting, one of those when time just flies by. I wish I could have daily sessions" - Lesia Swain
