EXCELLENT BOOK!

Reading this books makes me feel like I'm attending an upper division college level course about conditioning my horse--from heart rates information, a nutrition program, etc., and best of all, it's written for many different disciplines. EXCELLENT information, well presented, and basically enlightening. Thanks for an EXCELLENT BOOK.

Conditioning Sport Horses

Very in depth, Covers all sports. I would have liked a few more exercises that would benefit the horse.

essential reading

A litle gem. Fundamental text and reading for anyone undertaking serious study of horse locomotion and exercise physiology written by the guru of horse locomotion.

Conditioning Sport Horses

Very useful reference book. I'm impressed that it included combined driving.

Fitness doesn't happen easily.

The is the best information I've seen on conditioning. You might need to read it with a medical dictionary, but it is worth the effort. Your horse will live a longer and healthier life if you follow the instructions, and you'll not dread the comments in the vet box!
