XPERIENCE THE
DIFFERENCE
RESISTANCE
Pilates
Traditional Pilates reformers typically have only 4-5 springs, offering less variation in resistance. While they also reduce joint stress, they offer a more limited range of muscle toning.
RANGE OF MOTION
TEMPO
Our method emphasizes slow, controlled movements with a tempo of at least 4 seconds in, 4 seconds out. By eliminating momentum, you maintain constant tension on your muscles, activating more muscle fibers, particularly the slow-twitch, fat-burning ones
Pilates
In Pilates, the emphasis is more on the flow and rhythm of transitions between movements, which can be less effective for muscle engagement.
DURATION
Each set in our classes is performed for at least 60 seconds, targeting both fast and slow-twitch muscle fibers. Minimal transitions keep your muscles working and your heart rate elevated.
Pilates
Traditional Pilates involves sets composed of repetitions, with duration influenced by a specific breath pattern.
RESISTANCE
Our state-of-the-art Xformer machines are equipped with eight adjustable springs, allowing for a wide range of resistance levels. This ensures that your muscles are continually challenged, no matter your strength level. The Xformer machine is designed to work with your joints, reducing stress and maximizing muscle engagement.
