Chapter 1: About the Peak PilateSystem
Thank you for purchasing the Peak PilateSystem (PPS). Available in two models, Deluxe and
Reformer, the PPS is the most versatile and innovative (patent pending) piece of portable Pilates
equipment you can buy. The PPS Deluxe model combines three essential pieces of equipment, the
Reformer, Cadillac (Tower End) and Mat, into one compact, space saving unit. The Reformer model
is the only portable piece of Pilates equipment that can be easily upgraded to include all of the
features of the Deluxe, 3-in-1model without sacrificing its portability. Requiring only one person,
both models easily fold and roll for storage without removing any parts. The PPS machines are
constructed of the highest quality, commercial grade materials and are engineered for utmost
performance and durability. They require little maintenance and will provide you with years of
satisfied use.
Peak Pilates (the leading choice of experienced Pilates professionals) and Life Fitness (the largest
manufacturer of fitness equipment found in health clubs world wide) have created an unprecedented
strategic partnership for global distribution of the Peak PilateSystem. If you have purchased your PPS
