Excellent for sore horsesAug 01, 2003
I found this book to be excellent for my back sore horse and horses recovering from stall rest. It certainly cannot hurt for horses that you don't want to end up back sore or on stall rest. I have seen major improvements in the suppleness of my horses. The spiral bound format also allows you to keep it set up ringside for quick refrence and it won't close on you unexpectedly!

Great book for anyoneFeb 28, 2006
By S. Whitehead I purchased this book to help keep my 30 year old Morgan supple. Some of it can get technical and some of the sections are oriented towards the jumping horses, but you can defintely piece together a nice stretching rountine for your horse, no matter what your goal.

An Important Step to Riding WellMay 09, 2007

"Author, Equinomics: The Secret to Making Money with Your Horse Business"
One of the greatest mistakes riders make is not preparing their horses to rider. They just jump on and go. They don't warm the horses up or stretch them after they have worked to keep muscles supple. Then they wonder why their horses become lame or injured. The stretches suggested in this book are a great way to treat your horse like the athlete he is.

"Elementals Equine Therapies"
As a Equine Sports Therapist I often coach owners and trainers on techniques to maintain their horse. This is the most valuable book I have, it is well written and easy to follow with lots of variety. PERFECT

Great referenceMay 02, 2007
By Sefronia
"Equfillia"
For whoever said there is nothing new in this book you must be a very proficient and contentiousness horse person. I found this book pack full of goodies. Perhaps there is nothing "new" for you, but for most horse owners it is a fantastic book.
It has clear illustrations of all the stretches and explanations about why you do them. I also find this a good book for taking out to the barn and working through with my horses.
They enjoy the change from being ridden and the exercises also make good warm up and cool downs. They are the basic exercises but you don't really need to learn 999 different exercises. Just do the ones in this book well.
