The Pilates Ladder Barrel is a stealth training tool, providing those "in the know" core and flexibility exercises like no other apparatus. Our double foam padded, and upholstered Barrel offers enhanced comfort, stability, and support for prone exercises like Swan, or side-laying moves like Side Sit up or Mermaid. The solid rock maple frame and ladder holds up beautifully to everyday use. Added innovation: our super easy system for adjusting distance between ladder rungs and barrel. Users simply press the foot pedal, slide Barrel to desired position, and release the pedal to lock it securely in place. This easy adjustability accommodates for different torso sizes and leg lengths, making the Balanced Body Ladder Barrel the #1 choice for studios.
