In traditional riding lessons, the way to obtain more activity always seems to be “more leg”. But that’s not really correct. If you drive more, if you use stronger leg aids, you stiffen your leg muscles, which blocks your hip joints, which blocks the horse’s back and hind legs. Gripping or kicking legs cause the horse to hold his breath and to brace his rib cage, which also kills the impulsion and the back activity.

The secret to better engagement and activity is really not to do anything with your seat that can block or slow down the hind leg movement. “Take the foot off the brake, before you step on the gas” is something I used to tell students who took longe lessons on our horses in the US and weren’t able to keep the horses in the trot. Most of them would immediately kick the horse to keep him going, although they themselves were the reason why the horse fell back into the walk. The less you interfere with the horse’s back movement, the less you need to drive.

When working with a horse coming back from an injury, work very diligently on straightening and balancing the horse, i.e. align the horse precisely on the chosen line of travel and use turns, transitions, and movements to shift the weight towards the hind legs.

Balance and straightness allow the horse to relax.

Flexible hips and stifle joints protect the hocks and the front legs.

A swinging back acts as a shock absorber together with the hip joints, which is why back movers stay sounder longer. Their movements are round and smooth, and their feet touch down gently and noiselessly, whereas leg movers touch the ground loudly, with a hard, jarring impact that damages the joints and tendons.

Straightness keeps the horse laterally balanced, whereas a crooked horse always overloads one front leg.

Antibiotikaresistenz stellt eine der größten Herausforderungen für die öffentliche Gesundheit und die moderne Medizin dar. Laut WHO-Daten waren 2019 weltweit 1,27 Millionen Todesfälle direkt auf antibiotikaresistente Bakterien zurückzuführen, mit weiteren geschätzten 5 Millionen Todesfällen im Zusammenhang mit AMR. Die COVID-19-Pandemie und der wahllose Einsatz von Antibiotika in der frühen Phase könnten die Situation verschärft haben.

Elena Ponzo und ihr Team aus Italien haben in ihrem kürzlich veröffentlichten Artikel im August nocheinmal betont, dass ein 'One Health'-Ansatz, der die Gesundheit von Mensch, Tier und Umwelt berücksichtigt, entscheidend ist, um der Antibiotikaresistenz effektiv zu begegnen. (📚Ihr findet genauere Schlussfolgerungen zu der Review auf vet-magazin.com. 📚)

Internationale Zusammenarbeit ist entscheidend, um Fortschritte zu beschleunigen, Innovationen zu fördern und nachhaltige Lösungen zu gewährleisten. Diese Partnerschaften sind zudem ein entscheidender Schritt für die umfassende Überwachung des Antibiotikaverbrauchs in allen Bereichen. Es ist von größter Bedeutung, den Einsatz von Antibiotika auf therapeutische Zwecke zu beschränken und den prophylaktischen Einsatz sowie die Nutzung als Wachstumsförderer zu minimieren. Zudem müssen strenge Kontrollen eingeführt werden, um sicherzustellen, dass nur eine begrenzte Menge von Antibiotika in die Umwelt gelangt und die Verbreitung resistenter Bakterienstämme eingedämmt wird.

When you are working with a horse that is coming back from an injury, you can use dressage exercises to help him recover. Of course, this is more challenging than regular dressage because there is always a risk of re-injury. There are a few things to consider that can help you in the rehabilitation process. The following list can be applied to sound, healthy horses as well, of course, but it’s even more important with horses that are recovering from an injury.

1. Check the horse’s legs carefully before and after each workout for heat and swelling, if he is recovering from a leg injury.

If a leg is swollen or warm before the workout, it could mean that you overdid the training on the previous day. Sometimes it doesn’t show up until the next day if you worked the horse too intensively or too long.

2. Work closely with a vet, chiropractor, physiotherapist, body worker, farrier, etc., depending on the nature of the injury.

These professionals can help you determine if the horse is still experiencing pain, or if he is fully recovered and should be able to work. Sometimes horses in rehab show certain resistances to engaging a hind leg or supporting the weight with a certain hind leg, and it can be difficult to determine whether the horse is still hurting, or if he expects that it will hurt because it used to hurt during the acute phase of the injury. Another possibility is that the old injury site has developed scar tissue or adhesions that limit the range of motion of the limb and cause discomfort or pain. Depending on the cause of the horse’s reaction, you may have to proceed very differently with the training.

3. Work very diligently on straightening and balancing the horse, i.e. align the horse precisely on the chosen line of travel and use turns, transitions, and movements to shift the weight towards the hind legs.

Balance and straightness allow the horse to relax.

Flexible hips and stifle joints protect the hocks and the front legs.

A swinging back acts as a shock absorber together with the hip joints, which is why back movers stay sounder longer. Their movements are round and smooth, and their feet touch down gently and noiselessly, whereas leg movers touch the ground loudly, with a hard, jarring impact that damages the joints and tendons.

Straightness keeps the horse laterally balanced, whereas a crooked horse always overloads one front leg.

4. Find and eliminate muscle blockages. Stiff muscles create resistances, imbalances, and asymmetries. Muscle blockages limit the range of motion of certain joints. Horses often compensate for this by overusing other muscles and joints. Stiff joints create wear and tear because they can’t cushion the impact of the legs on the ground, and compensatory overuse of a certain leg or legs will also lead to damage.

5. Try to balance and supple the horse without the rider’s weight, e.g. through work in hand or careful longeing, before getting on.

6. Be very mindful of the tempo and speed you ride in relation to the line of travel. If the speed (mph, km/h) is too fast for the turn radius, the centrifugal forces will damage the horse’s tendons. If the tempo (strides per minute) is too fast, the horse will fall onto the forehand and overuse his front legs.

7. Be mindful of how long you work the horse, and how long you stay on one rein, in each gait, and in each exercise. Rather than staying in one gait, arena pattern, and movement for a long time, it may be better to work in short reprises, so that you work specific muscle groups for a short period of time, and then switch to a different muscle group, while the first one can recover again.

8. To supple the horse you may have to ride lateral movements in the walk for a while, and only ride larger arena patterns on a single track in the trot, until the horse has developed enough strength and stamina to do lateral work in the trot as well.

9. Keep a close eye on any signs of fatigue, discomfort, or pain so that you take breaks early enough, and you reduce the demands when the horse shows you that you have reached a certain limit. Be aware of the right time to end the training session for the day.

When muscles fatigue, they stop supporting and stabilising the body, and the tendons have to take over this task, which puts them at high risk of injury.

10. Don’t ride the horse every day. Sometimes, just work him in hand, at the longe line, the double longe line, or long reins. The more time he can spend doing gymnastic work without the weight of the rider, the safer it is.

11. Be mindful of your choice of training exercises. Never ride around mindless. Avoid empty miles on a stiff, crooked, unbalanced horse, as they damage the legs.

🍎 Ritterize Masterclass on Balance
In the Ritterize Membership this month, we are holding a Masterclass on Balance. Balance is interesting because it is central to everything we do in Dressage. There is the left-right (lateral) and front-back (longitudinal) balance of the horse. There is the obvious need for balance from the rider. And there is also the concept of finding balance in the big scheme of training, between focusing on different aspects of the training and keeping an overall balanced perspective of the training. This should be a great one - you won’t want to miss it! The riding exercise and Feldenkrais lesson featured this month are amazing to support your learning and exploration of balance.

🍎 Intermediate Work-in-Hand begins August 23, 2024
This special course continues where the Introduction to Work-in-Hand course left off. You will learn how to use lateral movements such as shoulder-in, haunches-in, renvers, half pass, and pirouette renversée to develop your horse’s agility, suppleness, balance, and collection further. From there, you will then learn to develop the half steps which will eventually lead to the piaffe and passage. We will wrap up the course with introducing work-in-hand with a double bridle and using “living pillars” to develop the collection further. This 8-week beta course includes customized feedback with 6 Live Q&As and 8 weekly HotSeat Sessions.

If you break every movement down into a preparation phase, an initiation phase, the middle part, and the exit phase, you can use the short side and the 1st corner of the long side as part of the preparation phase of the movement that follows on the long side or the diagonal. And you can use the 2nd corner of the long side or diagonal as the conclusion and exit from the movement.
