\"\"<\/a>When Joseph Pilates designed the original Reformer, students were built much differently then they are today. Today’s typical Pilates student comes in a much wider range of body shapes and styles than those original pioneers.<\/p>\n

One of the major drawbacks of the original Reformer design is that it doesn’t easily allow for adjustment to the wide variation found in a modern studio’s clients’ height, which can mean a difference of a foot or more!<\/p>\n

Solution: the Revo Adjustment System<\/h2>\n

Our custom built Balanced Body Reformers<\/strong> feature the innovative Revo Adjustment System (see photo inset),<\/strong> a multi-position locking mechanism for quickly and accurately moving the carriage (mat portion) of the Reformer in or out on the chassis, based on a student’s height and range of motion.<\/p>\n

This allows the spring bar (which offers the resistance) to move in unison with the carriage to maintain the proper no-load (neutral) initial spring tension<\/strong><\/em> while performing the exercises and providing the adjustability needed to create the best ergonomically correct position for every client.<\/p>\n

Why Is This Important?<\/h2>\n

Without the Revo Adjustment System, the client that’s 6’2″ and the client that’s 5’3″ must both begin from the same position relative to the foot bar, creating imbalance and an unequal range of motion and spring tension.<\/p>\n

This unique feature means our students get the full benefit of a reformer class without having to compromise form over fit. It’s a perfect combination of comfort and efficiency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
