Lower Body
The lower body body area covers integrated leg strength, hamstring length, and foot-to-hip control through full ranges on the reformer. Footwork, lunges, side splits prep, and strap lower-and-lift patterns all load the lower body with spring feedback. Lower-body work on the reformer is rarely isolated — glutes, hamstrings, hip flexors, and core stabilisers usually share the load. That integration is useful for building control before adding speed or advanced choreography. Use this page to discover leg-focused exercises, then filter the full library by level or equipment when you want a narrower list.
