Questions & Answers
Daniel, I believe you will find similar exercises in the "Essential book", the "Intermediate Reformer" and the "Advanced Reformer" and a few that are different as well. You would find that purchasing only this book is sufficient if you have a basic knowledge of Pilates.
There is no such thing. The Reformer is the only exercise device
Exercises using the Padded Platform Extender are not included in the Reformer manuals. Modifications to the equipment are covered by the Intensive Reformer or Comprehensive Matwork and Equipment Program (CMP). Courses for instructors in the reformer movement
Selected User Reviews For STOTT PILATES Manual - Intermediate Reformer, 2nd Edition (English)
A stop was necessary. All the post-its have been used. The rest of the article is useful.
As a result of the reviews mentioning the poor quality of the construction of the book, I was afraid to buy this. It has been fixed and now you have a very comprehensive, detailed instruction book with tons of illustrations. I have done studio Pilates for two years, but decided to invest in a machine after reading this manual. This is a very technical manual, but exactly what I needed to do a routine. I did buy the intermediate manual because another reviewer noted that there was repetition from the beginning If you would like to continue your Pilates routine at home, I strongly recommend this book.
My reformer exercises are more effective if I have a great purchase. It shows a Reformer, but I have worked on one with a trainer in the past. Only thing I would caution you about is the terminology as it deals with the muscles in the body. I don't know all the words but I think I can look them up and figure it out. It would be most helpful if there were a diagram with the specific names included. It is a great learning tool and I've found it extremely useful in learning how to do a particular exercise. A bit pricey though Investing is part of my investment strategy.
I found this book on Amazon while I was trying to do some Pilates on the Reformer I pulled out for the Covid isolation. In this book, you will find clear instructions that explain everything in detail A detailed description of each intermediate exercise with a suggestion for modification. As a result of my home Pilates program, I have gotten out of the Covid rut. Plus, I am recovering from recent surgeries. A balanced posture is achieved by gaining balanced strength. It was a pleasure for Stott, Pilates to create this excellent book that can be used at home.
My sincere thanks go out to Apart from that, it's a solid, helpful, and well-designed document A product made by hand.
I haven't tried to find a new Pilates studio after taking it for 15 years. The flow of exercises is clearly written on a laminated card I have along with my own reformer and tower. My memory of a few moves has faded and I forgot details of some moves that were done infrequently or that the class has nicknamed (up stretch = "Titanic"). In addition to that book, there are also books on chair and Cadillac that have well-illustrated photos of how to perform the exercises.
This is an expensive resource, but one that is suitable for anyone who uses a home Pilates reformer. This is a textbook for certification, so I assume it is priced as such. My attention was drawn to this product since I wanted more options than the poster that came with my machine. This book provides a lot more options with step-by-step instructions, photographs, and details on how to perform each task. The method I prefer is this rather than DVD instructions which appear It was a good decision for me to get an intermediate book instead of the beginner book, as it contains all of the basic information as well.
Glad I bought it. Having taken several Pilates classes over the years, I thought I remembered most of the Pilates exercises, so I bought a reformer to use at home. Oh boy, was I ever In this book and in the beginner book there are more exercises than I remember. The book is fantastic! I am so glad I purchased it!.
