Which exercise specifies 3 Reps on Each Side?

• A. Tree
• B. Arch
• C. Running
• D. Pelvic Lift

Answer: (A)

Reps per side and keeping work balanced on both sides are essential for building stability and symmetry on the Reformer. Tree is the balance-focused movement that is typically executed with three repetitions on each side. This means you complete three controlled cycles on one leg and then switch to the other, reinforcing even engagement of the stabilizers and precise alignment as the carriage moves. The insistence on repeating on both sides helps ensure that neither side becomes dominant and that your control remains consistent throughout the exercise. Other movements often use different counts or may not prescribe a strict per-side repetition pattern, so they don’t fit the same 3-reps-per-side requirement as consistently.
