THANK YOU ❤
You’re welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
Great exercices, I'll try them out with my boy, gotta keep those musckes healthy! That pretty mare looked a lot like a Rocky Mountain horse! Nice dappled belly too ❤
We hope you enjoy trying them with him and see good results! And good eye, our model horse is a registered Rocky Mountain Horse mare!
I’m gonna try these exercises with my mare tomorrow! I’m anxious to see how to she reacts. Thanks for sharing!
That’s great! We hope your mare enjoys your efforts❤
I saw two - did I miss one?
There are 2 variations of the second one so it could be 2 or 3. Hope you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching!
I wonder if you could help me find some good exercises I can do with my Arab. She has a small amount of atrophe in the left shoulder although shows no pain and us always ready to work. But, I am addressing supplemental needs to keep her good and healthy and happy. I need to reverse this wasting in the left shoulder though. I know there are strength building things I could be doing but could really use some help here. Can you please share if I should be applying weights, stretches, ground work or ANYTHING I could do to help build her back up on that side.
So sorry we didn’t see your question previously. We would definitely recommend having your veterinarian do a lameness exam to best evaluate why that area has muscle wasting. We wouldn’t want you to push her to build an area she may be protecting. If your vet finds she does not have pain and it’s more of a training/balancing issue the you could engage a reputable trainer to help with balancing her and building up that area. Hope that helps even though we don’t have a specific answer like you’d probably prefer.
Hello amd thank you fir tne oast correspindance. I wanted to check in woth you and let you know we habeade najor prigress wirh my arabs shoulder. We corrected the arab high low hoof and she ys getting stringer by the day!!!
That’s great news😊
Should i do these, and the carrot stretches, before or after i ride?
You can do them before or after but we recommend warming your horse up with at least a hand walking before doing the stretches so the muscles are warm and pliable.
Hi do you recommend any feed or supplements to help with top line
Great question. We do sometimes recommend some feeds for helping improve a horse’s topline but it is dependent upon the horse’s overall health. We have to consider the horse’s age, health conditions, current weight etc. Some things we might recommend include alfalfa for added protein, supplemental feeds like Nutrena Empower Topline balancer, Purina Enrich Plus etc. Each area of the country and differed stores carry different brands.
How long does it take to see results?x
Thank you for your question. Generally you should see changes within a month if you’re doing the exercises regularly. If not, you may want to have your horse examined by their vet to make sure there is no physical issue.
How often you do this exercise in a Session?
You can do these exercises 2-3 times.
What was the third exercise as I only saw two?
Thanks for watching! There are 2 variations of the second exercise when Dr Courville goes to the hind end of the horse… technically it could be 2 exercises if you only do one of the variations :-)
