What is the role of the springs in Stott Pilates?

The springs in Stott Pilates play a crucial role in providing adjustable resistance for exercises. This adjustability allows individuals to customize their workouts according to their strength levels and flexibility, making it possible to modify exercises and adapt to different fitness goals. The varying levels of tension that the springs can deliver facilitate both strengthening and rehabilitation exercises, supporting a range of movements from foundational to advanced. By enabling the instructor to tailor resistance to the individual’s needs, the springs enhance the effectiveness of the workout and ensure a safe practice environment that promotes proper form and alignment.
