Episode 76 // Riding with R+

Remember my social media post where I asked you all what *couldn't* be trained with R+? Thank you to everyone who commented, sharing their take on behaviors they believed would not lend themselves well to an R+-based approach. I decided to go through the comments on my podcast, diving into some myth-busting and explaining how I might teach the behaviors mentioned with R+. The answers might surprise you!
In this episode (part five of this series), I dive into how whether or not R+ can be used in the following situations:

 Proprioception training & building self-awareness
 Movement Science & Intrinsic Motivation
 Cart driving
 Training behaviors in situations where genetics & breed predispositions present challenges

Make sure you catch all 5 parts of this series!
Check out the following videos for examples of R+ being used to train horses to pull a cart.
