Accordingly, the position of the arm motion performing unit 150 can be adjusted by lowering or raising the position of the height adjuster 144 after rotating the manually operated screw 145 counterclockwise.

The arm motion performing unit 150 is connected to the high and low pole unit 140 and acts to elastically operate one arm motion of the pilates.

The arm motion performing unit 150 includes a pulley 151 coupled to the elevation pole unit 140 and one end fixed to the fixing bracket 152 of the bed frame unit 110 and the other end fixed to the pulley 151 And a band 154 that is coupled to the exposed end of the elastic wire 153. [ The arm motion performing unit 150 may be provided in a pair so that both hands can be operated.

In this case, pilates are performed while taking a variety of postures such as pulling the band 154 in the sitting position, lying on the bed 120, holding the band 154, pulling the band 154 directly toward the chest using the elastic force of the elastic wire 153, .

The rotary support 170 is coupled to the bed frame part 110 at a position opposite to the arm motion performing part 150. That is, the rotary support 170 is rotatably disposed on the rear portion of the bed frame 110, and has an inclined support bar 171, and serves to support the movement of the shoulder and the upper body of the pilates.

That is, the user can perform the pilates through various postures while holding the rotary support 170 with both hands in a state of lying on the bed 120 or kneeling, while applying force to the upper body.

A support support 115 for supporting the rotary support 170 is further provided at the rear end of the upper portion of the bed frame 110 where the rotary support 170 is positioned.

Finally, the removable dummy bed cushion 180 is made thicker than the thickness of the bed 120 as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, and is a type of cushion disposed on the bed 120. Since the removable dummy bed cushion 180 is disposed at a position higher than the bed 120, it is possible to perform another pilates at a high position.
