Welcome to our first in-the-barn video podcast!!!! Please note- this episode's audio quality is not up to our normal standard. We apologize as we live and learn through video podcast production!!! This is a COOL episode. Are you an amateur constantly stuggling with body position? Does your trainer constantly say "PULL YOUR SHOULDERS BACK!!" or "MOVE YOUR HIPS!!" or "SIT BACK!!!", but you're not really sure what that means? Then this episode is for YOU! In the previous episode, personal trainer Ellie broke down the major muscle groups riders use—how they work, and how to stretch and strengthen them. In this episode, we take that knowledge to the next level. Ellie is joined by her trainer, Savannah McGuire of Ambition Performance Horses, for an in-the-saddle demonstration of how those muscles actually function while riding—helping you connect the dots between off-horse training and what you feel in the saddle.Subscribe to Our Podcast Here!Sponsor Us Here!Check Out Our Affirmation Merch Here!Check Out Lopin' Down The Rail Fitness Here!

Welcome to our SECOND ever video podcast!! Host Ellie, personal trainer for equestrians, breaks down the function of each main muscle group in the body. This episode is great for equestrians struggling with how to move and control their own body parts, aren't sure how to stretch or strengthen different muscles, or want to know more about human biomechanics. We recommend watching this episode (available on Spotify and YouTube), but if audio-only is what works best for you, no sweat! Ellie breaks down each movement and concept displayed on screen so you can still tune in while driving to work, walking on the treadmill, or riding your horse!
