Mat exercises are only one part of Pilates. Most Pilates postures require the help of professional equipment to complete better. Using equipment to assist not only helps us feel the force, but also may bring better results.

Therefore, for Pilates novices, it is recommended to use large Pilates equipment for practice.

1. Reformer Core Bed
This equipment is an all-round choice for Pilates. It helps to stabilize the core of the body and mind, coordinate the flexibility and strength balance of the whole body, and is very suitable for Pilates beginners.

2. Cadillac Bed (moderate to high difficulty)
Combining mat exercises with strength equipment, it can fully exercise the muscles of the whole body, and is also suitable for fat loss training (the shooting effect is also very good, suitable for taking pictures).

3. Steady Step Chair
Provides a variety of exercise methods for different parts of the body to meet the training needs of different stages.

4. Ladder Barrel
As a more protective choice among Pilates equipment, the movement difficulty is relatively low, which helps to open stiff parts, improve spinal mobility, and enhance flexibility and core strength.

5. Spinecorrector
Also known as Pilates arc, it is suitable for spinal correction, helping to perform forward flexion, lateral flexion and rotation, and helping to improve bad body shapes such as hunched back.
