âš Pre and Post Ride Care âš
Training is important, but Iâve learned that what you do before and after the ride plays an equal role in keeping a horse sound, happy, and ready for tomorrow.
My routine often includes:
âą đ§ Ice boots to protect joints and reduce heat after work
âą đȘź Brushing down with coat oils, which keeps the coat healthy and gives me a moment to connect with my horse
âą đ§ Electrolytes to replace whatâs lost through sweat
âą đ€Č Stretching and simple massage at home to keep muscles loose and comfortable
âą đż Mud poultice to help legs recover from the workload
These are small things, but they add up. They make a big difference to a horseâs wellbeing and longevity. For me, caring for them off the saddle is every bit as important as the training we do in it.
We also have a team of experienced industry experts that we can rely on which are just as important! đŽđ«¶đ»
