Tuesday tip...... try BACKING UP

This low impact exercise can be done in-hand and has many benefits for your horse. When done correctly it will:

✅ Help to lift and flex the back
✅ Condition the core muscles
✅ Strengthen the muscles and structures involved in engagement and carrying the weight of the rider
✅ Stimulate the sacroiliac area
✅ Stretch the topline muscles
✅ Increase flexion of the hindlimb joints

HOW TO DO IT
For maximum benefit ask your horse to back up daily.
1. From halt apply gentle pressure on your horse’s chest and head collar to encourage him to step back. (With practise you’ll find you will need less pressure).
2. Keep his head as low as possible – this helps him to lift his back. If he hollows, use a carrot to encourage him to lower his head.
3. Aim for long, marching backward steps
4. To help your horse get into a rhythm ask for a minimum of 10 steps building up to 20 steps.

Give it a go and let us know how you get on.
