Which exercise is described as Front Splits (I, II) (III)?

• A. Front Splits (I, II) (III)
• B. Back Splits (I, II, III)
• C. Side Splits w/ Fancies
• D. Mermaid

Answer: (A)

Recognizing how reformer exercises are named and progressed helps you see the right choice. Front Splits (I, II) (III) refers to a front split sequence on the reformer, with the carriage and springs used to deepen the stretch across three progressive levels. The exact wording in the description matches this exercise, so it’s the best fit. The other options describe different movements: Back Splits would target a split in the opposite direction, Side Splits with Fancies focus on lateral opening with extra cues, and Mermaid is a separate side-bending stretch. The progression I, II, III signals the standard three-stage front split sequence, making the chosen option the correct one.
