Wednesday Workout =----->
Workout Wednesday: It's time to get responsive and maneuverable with the Agility Square. Set up 4 cones in a large square, at least 30-meters wide. At each corner, ride a downward transition to walk for the number of strides shown in the diagram, then resume trotting. This is 20 in my book, 55 Corrective Exercises for Horses. www.jecballou.com/store

Workout Wednesday: Count those steps! When a horse travels in any gait without a steady self-sustaining rhythm, his balance is constantly altered. Not only is this a disorganized feel for both horse and rider, it is an inefficient use of energy and muscles. To hone good rhythm, practice counting the number of steps it takes to ride between two points in your arena. Can you repeat the same number consistently?? Can you do this in all gaits?
