Rider Fitness Unveiled:
A Horseback Workout!
We're all about pampering our horses, but what about us? Let's dive into rider fitness. Riding isn't just a breeze – it's a muscle marvel. Isometric muscles, heart rate dancing, and muscle endurance in the spotlight.
Picture this: cardio and endurance are cool, but muscle endurance steals the show. A study revealed elite riders acing a core stability challenge. Translation: a strong core is key!
Surprise alert: elite versus non-elite riders? Smaller gap than you'd think. Fitness differs in horse land.
Discipline matters! Jumping is a fitness circus, polo pumps that heart, and dressage is the zen master.
Train smart: match your discipline. Buddy up with your horse for fitness success. It's not just muscles – it's conquering stress and riding with a calm heart.
