Welcome to Episode : Part 2 of 2: Developing Core Strength

Tune in with Dr Raquel and Sophie as a follow up to Part 1: Recognising Core Strength- learning the signs of good and poor core health in your horse.

In Part 2 we explore the foundations of how to develop the horses core, postural endurance, and strength at stretch in horses and riders. The discussion emphasizes developing a core that automatically engages, supports spinal alignment, and sustains movement throughout training. We also discuss how flexibility, stability, and mobility must work together for optimal performance and injury prevention.

Key Points Discussed:

• Core Function (and what this really means) 
• Strength at Stretch
• Groundwork & In-Hand Exercises for Core Activation
• Saddle Fit, Rider Awareness & Connection
• Progressive Strength & Endurance Training
