Tops working on his balance & strength through a small grid. Even though he is retired from his hunter days, it is good to keep up on his strength and balance with a simple grid exercise.
Why do we still use grids for a retired guy? Gridwork is the ultimate cheat code for fitness. Because the distances are set, it takes the guesswork out for Tops, allowing him to focus entirely on his footwork, lifting his back, and finding his rhythm. It’s a fantastic, low-stress way to maintain core strength, flexibility, and hind-end engagement without putting excess wear and tear on his body.
Speaking of Tops: He had a lot of attention the last month on Instagram. We are happy to report that he has found a loving new home where he will be trail riding and doing lower level dressage with his new owner! We appreciate everyone’s kind comments & interest in Tops. He is a good boy & we will miss him dearly at Orlando Sport Horses!
