Review: if you only ever buy one horse book - make it this one ! - This is a superb book & helped me to understand why some things were happening with my horse ! The author's style is flowing - much like a friend chatting to you - and the information is easy to understand. I found myself having many "lightbulb" moments ! Wonderful section on stretching & bodywork with clear illustrations. Great inhand & ridden exercises too. And there's handy tear out cards at the back of the book as a quick memory aid at the yard or when riding. I can't recomend this book highly enough. Review: A great "What to do and why" exercise programme for horse riders - An excellent book. In particular, the introductory section explains the principles of biomechanics and the need to regard a horse as a "whole system", rather than focussing on isolated parts of its physiology, if one is to approach fitness and conditioning in the right way. Most importantly, it cautions against assuming that because the horse looks fitter/stronger that its condition is as good as one thinks because sustainable, effective conditioning takes a long time. Very well written and well illustrated. It provides both guidance and clear strategies for conditioning your equine, however old and whatever discipline/activity you engage in. Highly recommended. ## Features - New - Mint Condition - Dispatch same day for order received before 12 noon - Guaranteed packaging - No quibbles returns ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 407,002 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 250 in Horses 335 in Horse Care (Books) 452 in Riding & Horsemanship (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 338 Reviews | ## Images ![Equine Fitness: A Program of Exercises and Routines for Your Horse - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81bC4faTFeL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ if you only ever buy one horse book - make it this one ! *by A***R on 4 January 2013* This is a superb book & helped me to understand why some things were happening with my horse !
