This workout is perfect for your fitness-minded Pilates participants. It’s a complete workout. Some of the exercises are Traditional Reformer exercises, but many are variations that I really love (and hope you'll like as well). The exercises are mostly intermediate, with some beginner and a few advanced. Remember that not all exercises are for all people, so be sure to pick the exercises that are right for your body. This workout is for trained Pilates Professionals. I highly recommend working, in person, with an instructor if you're not a trained professional. The springs are suggested and may need to be changed depending on the client’s strengths and goals and the manufacturer your using.

I'm so glad I found John Garey on youtube! I'll be honest; I'm not a fan of most of the female led, pilates reformer classes online. The focus is mainly on the "booty" and the reformer gets turned into a TRX machine. John stays within the confines of the classic pilates but he revs it up a few notches by "twists" and "turns" the body makes in order to maximize the sculpting of the torso which I love. I'll definitely be taking more of this classes every other day from now on.

[@JohnGareyTV]

Thank you so much!

[@terrywalker5368]

I am a pilates instructor also & I've been following your workouts for a while & I am a huge fan, and inspired by your teaching. Hope to get brave enough to post some of my own soon,

[@katwooton3693]

Thanks John! I love your workouts on Pilates Anytime. As an instructor myself I like your athletic approach to your reformer workouts. Def, my style!

[@TheJulbug]

I think John, this was one of your best intro reformer videos!! You presented relaxed and flowing materials that made me more aware of muscles I am facilitating rather than trying to look pilates picture perfect!! More Please!!

[@Raingar94]

Thanks for another great workout! I'm a retired Physical Therapist and now instructing my husband, getting him ready for a Total Knee Replacement!

[@POPPINROBIN]

super helpful! i only have resistance cable/bands that u attach to doors in my home and i try to set them up to mimic a lot of reformer style moves. your instructions on what muscles are being worked, and which ones to activate, is super helpful for me to maintain proper form and make sure i'm doing the exercises right! thanks!

[@mintzportraitstudiollc2257]

Awesome Workout! After 4 years of reformer classes I purchased a Merithew Stott Home reformer and your online classes are perfect. Great verbal cueing and clear videos!

[@stevebernihansen1190]

Thank you so much for this. I’ve been doing the same Pilates Reformer workout for over 10 years off and on. So excited to find another one to do. Love this.

[@malapaul1601]

I m so happy to find this video. I have been using a reformer for a few weeks but nothing has woken up my muscles like this workout, look forward to using more of your workouts I m hooked and know will see results!! Thank you!

[@barbarawheeler8091]

love the fact that you give us the strength of the springs you are using. Enjoy the variations and the time to get set up for the next exercise thank you

Gracias!!!! John!!!

[@marthaleatherman8429]

Great, great workout. My new favorite!

[@amyalonzo3050]

Mr Garry, I have learned so much with your sessions and really like the variations. I am also an instructor as well as student of other instructors, so always try to find new ways to do exercises. Wonderful instructions and especially like that you always give instruction on breathing. Thanks! Am

[@carrieblunt2426]

My new go-to at home work out! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Your style is refreshing!

[@daniellew.7810]

Great workout !! Thank you.

[@helenereid4865]

enjoyed the unilateral work. We forget that it helps trigger balance. Thank you!

[@sarisigridbantola5426]

I always love how you put exercises together!!!

[@Kazzy01]

Love your videos. You explain everything, the muscles it helps, how to breath, the right position etc, and you give time to let us get into position👍🏻 Thankyou😊

[@JohnGareyTV]

[@ester.odeia49]

thank you ! i love your worouts, you are a greate teacher!

[@MauiCarma]

Love working out with you! Thank you!

[@barbdunn8886]

John, I'm always in awe of your content and even more, your rapport with us, even though we're separated electronically. That's so difficult to do and you shine. Like you, I have a very heavy strength and conditioning background (was the first female powerlifter at the U.S. Naval Academy) and transitioned from group fitness to pilates (thru Stott), which is my primary focus. When I saw that you were a master trainer for Stott, it all made sense. I had seen an evolution in Stott's programming from traditional mat/reformer to strength/conditioning (and more) incorporating the essence of pilates and it all made sense after I realized you were an influence! I'm always grateful when I get to learn from you. I saw your article mentioning your USMC dad and how he influenced your fitness outlook; I bet he's beaming with pride, be he here in the physical with us or in the spriritual realm. BTW, would you believe I still have a VHS from about a hundred years ago with you and Pat Wade when I was learning how teach high/low aerobics?! And here I am 25 years later watching your pilates videos! Thanks for all you do - you've made a difference!

[@kathyday6964]

Hi John! Luv, luv, luv your workouts! A favor...I'm a year out from total knee replacement and looking at getting the other one replaced soon😱. I'm back on my reformer but obviously I can't ( nor should I)position like I use to. So many videos and instructors never address those who have had TKR or THR with adaptations. It wouldn't take long to mention these dos and don'ts and would keep this population (which unfortunately is getting larger) able to keep up their pilates practice and be safe. Thanks for listening!

[@beatrizpena2060]

Me encanta Muchas felicidades

[@Ana-iz1mj]

You are the best..really

[@starkman78]

I graduated from CSULB in 2002. Back in those days, going to John's studio was an indulgence that I allowed myself. I love his teaching style. Very thorough (especially when it comes to adjusting equipment between exercises) but keeps the pace up. This was a great start to my day this morning. Thanks!

[@JohnGareyTV]

Thank you so much!

[@cdesserich7509]

Loved this awesome workout!

[@paolaperezvillanueva1740]

[@verywendyyoga]

Great video! YOu are an amazing teacher. Thank you

[@JohnGareyTV]

Thank you so much!

[@nelidabianco7434]

Excelente 👌

[@annevanderheyden3539]

Loved the workout !! The one part I struggle with is using the strap on my feet. Its so loose that I can't use it for resistance. I see your heels are at the base of the platform. Mine float in the air. Is there something I am doing wrong? I use the SPX reformer. Thanks :)

[@lisareilly8856]

Excellent videos, 👍

[@JohnGareyTV]

Thank you!

[@kaymoore7581]

Great workout!!!!

[@JohnGareyTV]

Thank you!!

[@mrhalffasteddie]

where do I get machine/ Pilates

[@sherristarr9477]

Great workout but today had lots of ads interrupting the workout. What’s up with that?

[@zeynepbozkurt2982]

Hay John where are you?

[@saraorella835]

Good work out. It would be nice to call the exercises out if it’s an authentic Pilates move like your last exercise on this video, “Eve’s Lounge”. Integrating the authentic work with your exercise experience is a lot of fun.

[@JohnGareyTV]

Noted. I studied with 3 schools and use the names I've learned from them. I do understand that other schools use different names. Thanks for watching and please stay well and safe.

[@sectionhiker]

I'm thinking about buying a reformer for home use because I live about 30 mins from a studio. Which reformer would you recommend. I want something that's high quality with a good resale value, but it doesn't have to be top of the line. Thanks! Reply

[@lynnritchie231]

I don't have a box, so I'll either need to skip this bit, or get a 'box' of some sort......🤔 I've only been doing your 10 min routines, so looming forward to trying something longer.

[@pinky6390]

I enjoyed your video. Could you please tell me how much a pilates bench like this costs?

[@sherripenkacik929]

Look at the Merrithew.com store.

[@barbdunn8886]

Pinky, if you go to the Merrithew store, you'll see different reformers. You might want to look at the "At Home" reformers. I have the SPX version and added an extra set of casters and put PVC cups on the wall to hold it in place in the vertical position. Without these additions, I wasn't able to move the reformer from on the floor to a vertical storage position even though it's advertised for vertical storage as-is. If you end up buying one and need idea, please let me know and I'll send you pics of my modifications. The SPX version will also accommodate other reformer attachments (like the trampoline) that Stott sells. I highly recommend investing in the long box and platform extender because you'll have a lot more versatility. Stott also sells the maple pole John uses in the video. I teach in a studio and to a lesser degree, in my home, but use the reformer a lot for personal use. It was well worth the investment.

[@barbdunn8886]

Oh, one more thing - if you're not mat or reformer certified, I highly recommend that you take some classes at a studio to 1) see if you enjoy the reformer and 2) get qualified instruction before becoming your own trainer. There are quite a few safety and positioning considerations that will ensure you get not only an effective workout, but a safe one too.

[@pinky6390]

Thank you so much for the information. Very nice of you. I am still researching. I have a long spinal fusion in my lumbar so def. need to evaluate it. Unfortunately no pilate studio where I live so will have to travel quit far to take classes but I know it is neccesary. I will contact you if I end up buying one. Thanks once again :-)

[@shannonamend]

I know more about workouts from Unflexal handbooks !

[@lindafiglia6433]

Love all your variations... but where is the flow? One of the 5 basic rules of Pilates?

[@sherripenkacik929]

It followed the repertoire basically. When you add a lot of athletic challenges it can change the flow slightly. I enjoyed it.

[@knatthawut3513]

❤

[@selimkocal935]

Hello dear, How old are you? I'm just wonder it😁

[@kelljA]

Ads drove me a bits nuts so couldn't stay in the zone. Pity.

[@Janneejan]

Why in the world would you monetize a workout video! And so many of ads?! I protest and turn it off.

[@deba.2003]

I used to love this workout but now with the adds popping up all the time I don't enjoy it anymore. Can you please have the adds at the beginning only as it totally ruins the flow of this wonderful workout having them pop up in the middle of an exercise. Instead of feeling good during the routine I end up feeling totally frustrated. I haven't tried any of your other longer workouts in the last couple of months but I guess they too will have these frustrating adds. Please please remove them from the content. Thank you

[@JohnGareyTV]

Hi Deb. You can work out ad free at johngareytv.com with our monthly subscription. Thank you for working out with us and hope to see you inside JGTV soon.

[@deba.2003]

@John Garey TV I know but at the moment I have had to suspend my subscription and was hoping to still do some of your workouts like I did before I subscribed. So was really disappointed to have the ads ruin the flow. Going thru some rough patches with a sick hubby....hence the membership suspension...and find my pilates really helps. Just can't justify the cost at the moment when I can't do it everyday . Hope it is possible to have the ads only at the start as I love your workouts

[@carolebrennan1992]

Love yr work outs so knowledgeable and inspirational with very clear 🙌 instructions and guidance. Ta so much
