Body area
Back
The back body area covers posterior-chain support, spinal alignment awareness, and upper-back endurance on the reformer. Extension prep, long-box pulling, semi-circle, and supported thoracic mobility patterns all engage this area with spring-controlled feedback. Back-focused work here is training for awareness and endurance — not a substitute for medical advice if you have pain or a diagnosed condition. Smaller ranges and lighter springs often teach clearer mechanics than forcing large extension early on. Explore linked exercises for posterior-chain and postural support work, and pair with shoulders-and-arms or core pages when upper-body organisation matters.
