The reformer with tower is a pilates machine that combines two popular pieces of pilates equipment: the reformer and the tower. The reformer is a long, narrow platform that slides back and forth on rails, while the tower is a vertical frame with springs and bars that can be used for a variety of exercises. When combined, thereformer with tower offers a very wide range of exercises that can help you build strength, flexibility, and endurance. It's a versatile machine that can be used by beginners and advanced practitioners alike. They allow you to do all the exercises a reformer does as well as 75% of all the other exercises that the traditional cadillac offers. However the towers do not have the overhead bars that run parallel to the mat, the attached trapeze bar that attaches to those bars, and the hanging straps that attach to the bars (all of which are features of the traditional cadillac).
