Pilates Reformer Full Body Workout | 38 Min Intermediate Strength + Balance

Build full-body strength, balance, core control and mobility with this 38-minute intermediate Pilates Reformer workout using a short box and an optional balance cushion or Pilates ball. Welcome to Pilates with Jenn! Today’s intermediate full-body Reformer workout combines controlled strength, balance, coordination and mobility for a challenging but well-rounded class. We begin with deep-core activation and arms in straps before moving into feet-in-straps work, inner-thigh strength, long spine and high frog. From there, we’ll challenge the lower body with standing side lunges and scooters, build stability with single-leg planks, strengthen the abdominals on the short box and finish with unilateral upper-body work, assisted push-ups and a full-body stretch. Class focus ✔ Deep-core strength and control ✔ Inner thighs, glutes and legs ✔ Single-leg balance and stability ✔ Short-box abdominal work ✔ Shoulders, chest, arms and back ✔ Assisted Reformer push-ups ✔ Hip, glute, quad and chest mobility Equipment Required: Pilates Reformer and short box Optional: Balance cushion or Pilates ball The optional cushion or ball can be omitted. I provide alternatives throughout the class so you can still complete the workout without either one.
