Two days ago my new baby arrived! I am head over heels in love. I was from the moment it arrived. My new Balanced Body Combo Chair!!!!! I have used it twice since then and I will use it again this morning. I have been trained to teach it, so I know how to use it. I knew how to set it up. I knew how amazing it would be. But I didn’t realize how amazing it would be to know that this Pilates machine is mine all mine.
We have a very large master bed room. It could really be two rooms. They should have made it a 3rd bedroom in this townhouse. But we don’t own this place and with all luck we will be moving into MUCH more space in a little over a month. The appraisal is today, keep your fingers crossed. Anyway, the 2nd half of our bedroom is used for our exercise equipment. I arranged my Pilates area rather nicely. I am looking forward though to having an entire room for my Pilates stuff.
I do have to move the chair away from the window a bit when using it. So I have full range of motion, but it works. It is my space. I love it. It felt amazing to get back on the chair. I missed it. Things have been so bananas since my grandpa went into ICU and then passed away. I haven’t been into the studio in a while. I guess I have been a little depressed and overwhelmed with everything I have to handle right now. Three days ago I started to feel a bit better overall. I am hoping this keeps up. I think I am coming to terms with his passing. I am still sad but Saturday I had a little release. I cried a bit . Also, exercise helps. And what is better than a brand new toy to workout with? Nothing I tell you, nothing!
Where did you get your chair from? I’d like to buy my own reformer and am curious as to where others are getting their home equipment from. Did you have to put it together also?
I ordered mine on Balancedbody.com. It was assembled. All I had to attach were the wheels. Which was simple. I was definitely happy with the shipment and order in general. It was perfect.
That is great. I wonder how much assembly might come with a reformer. I’ve heard that Balanced Body, Peak Pilates, and 2 others are the best sources for equipment.
I bet if you called the company they could let you know before you purchase. Personally I have been trained on Balanced Body equipment, so I am partial to that company. I am still very happy with my chair. I did a great workout this morning. Since the chair from BB was assembled I am betting the Reformer is also pretty assembled. I had to set up a delivery time and be home for it and sign for it. The box was huge! They put it in the garage for me but my husband and I had to carry it in the house and upstairs. So that would be one thing I would say to consider, you will need a helping hand most likely when it is delivered. The chair was super heavy I am guessing the Reformer is much heavier. Good luck!!! I hope you find one you like. Down the road I also want a Reformer.
