I loved this one. I paired it with one of your 10-min inner thigh videos, and it made for a great 30-min reformer session. Quick question for you - do you have any videos where you go over making sure that your reformer is set up correctly? I also have the BB MetroIQ, and sometimes I wonder if my straps are the right length, or if I should move the footbar to a different position. Thanks!

Hey Jennifer! I do not at the moment, but I’ll give you the crib notes version here. For the ropes/straps, the easiest way is to hook the straps around the headrest or the rope pegs if your reformer model has them, and tighten the ropes until they are taught in this position. If your straps are double loops, I would put the long loop over the shoulder block or peg in this case. I choose to keep my ropes a little bit shorter, but that’s based on personal preference. I would recommend starting there, and then adjust your preference. For the footbar, I would position it so that in footwork, the bar isn’t so far away that you don’t feel the resistance immediately when you start pressing into the footbar. If you feel like you’re not getting into your end range of motion as you get closer to the stopper, try positioning the bar a little closer. If you feel like it’s way too close or you’re not able to be in your starting position without compromising the spinal or pelvic position, I would recommend positioning a little further away. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have more questions.
