The Right "Stretch"

HorseCoursesOnline.com instructor Betty Lindquist will have a special feature article on "horse stretching exercises" in the Certified Horseman's Association magazine, The Instructor, winter issue which comes out in January.

Lindquist, who teaches Equine Massage, says that many of the exercises being taught are "really conter-productive." You simply do not want to use an exercise which actually "tightens" the muscles. Lindquist explains the correct way to "stretch your horses" for maximum benefit to the horse.
