This title offers a fascinating 'inside-out' view of how the horse uses
its body, that is presented in a graphic, easy-to-follow way to aid you
in improving all aspects of riding and training. Discover the true
effect of riding and training on each part of the horse by seeing the
skeleton and major muscles painted on the outside. It includes practical
exercises that demonstrate how to improve movement, build the right
muscles and increase suppleness in the horse. It includes step-by-step
guidance on the correct way to warm-up your horse and stretching
routines to help guard against injury. Unlike other books on
biomechanics and anatomy "How Your Horse Moves" is truly applied.
