We have a mega topic on the podcast today: equestrian body image. Regardless of the discipline that you are, regardless of your age, regardless of your socioeconomic status, the majority of equestrians have had to deal with issues surrounding body image at some point or another. In this episode, Katrina talks about everything from her own experience dealing with a negative body image, how social media messes with our perception of what an equestrian should look like, and how to best protect yourself from what can often be toxic ideas that are spread by the world we live in.

Nobody has time to meal plan or meal prep.

She shares tips on how you can fit it into your life and also runs through exactly what she does from week to week.

We have a juicy episode this week: Katrina talks all about why equestrians should not do Pilates if they want to be the best athletes in the saddle that they possibly can be. Many people in the equestrian fitness space tout the benefits of Pilates for people who ride horses, but they do not acknowledge that there are many downfalls to taking this approach and that equestrians can benefit much more from alternative forms of exercise. Listen to find out why Katrina doesn't recommend Pilates for equestrians and what she suggests instead.

On today's episode of the podcast, we are talking horse training in the winter and how you can still make progress training your horse even in the worst parts of winter. I talk about how I'm still making progress with my reining horse, Diesel, and give tips on how you can do the same. If I am able to train my horse in the winter, then so are you!

On today's episode of the podcast, I'm talking about three things that equestrians MUST think about before starting a strength training program. You won't want to miss this episode because, if you miss these three things, you could very well end up with little to no results (as well as messing up your performance in the saddle).

I recommended a couple of different programs that you might want to consider:

Mind Pump: These guys have several workout programs that work for a variety of people. https://www.mindpumpmedia.com/maps-fitness-individual-programs

Jeff Nippard: Jeff is very good about researching what works and what doesn't. His programs work well (I've done his upper/lower program and his fundamentals of hypertrophy program and have gotten great results from both) and they are a bit cheaper than the Mind Pump programs. https://jeffnippard.com/collections

We are back with a brand new episode of the podcast! And, for the first time ever, I am cross-posting it on YouTube as a video podcast!

A few months ago I had posted an episode saying that I was putting the podcast on hold indefinitely so that I could focus on YouTube instead, but I've missed doing the podcast and have decided to bring it back. This week's episode is short and sweet. I discuss my plans for the podcast and give an update on how things are going with Junior and Diesel.
