To all of those who have heard me talk about how important the walk and warm are .. here you go! Proof I'm not just nagging you. 😜

Why are we wasting the walk?! 🚷

You can do a lot of valuable work at the walk. Lateral work, core engagement, extended, collected, poles, sharpening voice and seat cues... you name it!

While it may not be a strenuous cardio workout, it is most definitely strength training. Especially if you’re adding hills or varied terrain. Not to mention it’s low impact and it can also be incredibly beneficial for -but not limited to- green or anxious horses.

Picture this💭

👉🏼Doing 15-20 mins of varied work at the walk

Versus

👉🏼Trot/cantering in circles for 45 mins

If you are only ever doing option 2, then you’re doing your horse a disservice.

I know we all love to ride at the trot & canter, but riding laps around the arena is only going to do so much for your horse.

A typical ride doesn’t have to consist of the same walk, trot, canter routine every time.

Get out of your head and your routine- and GET CREATIVE with your rides!

A sad moment for us in the equine world but thrilled to see Eric thriving in a new role! Wishing you all the best!!

Announcing my retirement from competition comes with a lot of mixed emotion. I always fought hard never believing that cancer would get the better of me but here we are. As sad as I am, I'm also grateful that it comes at a time when I am in a position to lead the Canadian Show Jumping Team to great things. The energy and excitement gives me a new focus and a meaningful way to continue contributing all my knowledge to the sport I love. I will also continue to build Torrey Pines Stable into the best in the world with two great riders, Beth and Nina, handling the reins. Thank you to everyone who has played a role in my career, especially my owners for all of their support. bit.ly/3NC8HNT

This is why I always tell you to walk your horses before and after rides! It's the little things that make all the difference!

Still another reason for a slow, calm walking warm up,

Klaus Balkenol said a MINIMUM of ten minutes of walking, and to use a watch if you are the impatient type, as ten will feel like 20-----

15 minutes is better still.

Don't have time for this PLUS work? Do this instead of work---

Hard to accept? Top trainers are not top trainers because they fail to understand how horses operate----

These two cuties enjoyed their PEMF session last night while at the Iron Horse Silver Series show! Congratulations to Louie, grey, on placing in both classes and winning one!

It takes a village and I'm happy to be a part of it!

How cute is Miss Maize?! This was her first session and despite being skeptical at first, she hopped in the loop herself shortly after! I love that moment when they realize how nice it feels and when their symptoms start to lessen. Feels like magic but really it's just the PEMF!

The US Jumping athlete has also been disqualified from eight events in 2018 and 2019 for using electric spurs on his horses.

To all my fellow friend suffering from headaches and migraines there is hope! Lifewave's Aeon patch is my absolute go to for headaches and specifically in this placement pictured above! Headaches are unfortunately a frequent occurrence in my life which increased after a bad concussion where my neck really took a beating. So while I use the Aeon patch to help with headaches it also helps relieve inflammation and decreases stress which are both very much needed for myself. If you're wanting to try these patches I offer sample packs and a discounted price! DM me for more info!

Ps. Swipe to read a review of the Aeon patch!

This guy's kills me with his b***y wiggles every time, but today they were significantly bigger than usual! Had a temporary mishap with my main loop so I opted to use our mag disk for this hind end treatment. While my go to I'd the big loop I had a feeling this guy would love how specific and deep the mag disk is, I was definitely right!

The mag disk penetrates on a cone shape where the widest part is at the base and then it phases out to a pin point. This makes it the PERFECT attachment for hooves but also for those specific area or injuries. In this case, the horse struggles with his hind end in general but he demonstrates the most relief when pemfing the lumbar region. The disk allowed me to really see what area was most active and possibly agitating him. He also instantly relaxed and the PEMF's do their job! Absolutely love how versatile PEMF can be!

Our small but mighty patches at work again. This gelding is wearing a combination of patches to help with his hind end during his rides and in between his regular PEMF sessions. Super easy to use, just peel and place.

This guy is wearing a combination of Aeon, Icewave and x39 to help reduce inflammation, pain and stiffness.
