How Often Should You Use a Pilates Reformer with Tower?

When I first started incorporating the Pilates Reformer with Tower into my routine, I was faced with the question: how often should I really be doing this? After years of teaching and training, I’ve come to understand that Pilates Reformer workout frequency is a personal journey—it depends on your unique goals, experience, and lifestyle.

For beginners, I always recommend starting with 2 to 3 sessions per week. This gives your body enough time to adjust to the resistance, movement patterns, and the unique combination of horizontal and vertical work that the tower adds. It’s consistent enough to build strength and flexibility without overwhelming your muscles.

If you’re more experienced or training for specific results—like improved posture, deeper core engagement, or even rehab—3 to 5 times a week can offer transformative benefits. Just be sure to balance intense sessions with gentler flows focused on mobility and recovery. These could include exercises that focus on stretching, breathing, and slow, controlled movements.

The Reformer with Tower is a versatile tool that empowers you to tailor your workouts to your needs. You can have a power session one day using the tower’s push-through bar for upper body strength, then follow up with a stretch-based tower routine to decompress your spine the next. The key is to listen to your body and adjust your routine accordingly.

At the end of the day, how often to use Pilates Reformer equipment should align with your lifestyle, not stress you out. I’ve had clients who see incredible results training twice a week and others who thrive on daily practice.

No matter your frequency, consistency beats intensity. Whether you’re aiming for better posture, core strength, or mindful movement practice, stick with it.
