My thoughts on using a wide range of movement and movement options during rehab and training

The second part of my review of summer 2022

Something a little different!  Reflection and chat about some amazing opportunities and experiences I have had over the last couple of months.

What should you do in the week or days before a big event. The big event may be the olympics but it may also be a clinic you travel to or a pleasure ride. What ever it may be it usually represents an increase effort compared to your horse's normal day to day level of activity. In this podcast I talk about ways to ensure you are ready for the event, you have the greatest level of performance there and you do not increase the risk of injury for your horse.

We know that to progress and adapt the musculoskeletal system the body has to work a bit harder. But how hard and how do you know if you are working your horse too hard or not hard enough?

In this podcast I talk about the concepts of working to failure and working with 2 reps in reserve.

How do you attach a lunge line to a bridle?  Simple questions but it seems not such a simple answer!

Hand walking is important for rehab so in this episode I talk through a few options to help you decide how to attach a lunge line to a bridle.

What do you put on your horse for ground work - if a) you do ground work and b) you aren't at liberty?!

In this episode I talk through the options - head collar, rope halter, bridle or cavesson. 

I explain which my preferred choice is, but I would rather you did groundwork, in-hand or lunge work with anything than not doing it at all!
