Balance Your Riding in 90 Minutes a Week
Stop me if this sounds familiar:
Posting the trot feels stiffer on one diagonal.
Sitting the canter feels natural on one lead but awkward on the other.
You feel like one stirrup is always longer, even though you’ve checked a dozen times.
Your riding instructor is always reminding you to stick your chest out, find neutral seat, or stop collapsing to one side.
If you try to mount or dismount on the off side, your body won’t cooperate.
You feel like one heel, hip, or shoulder tends to drift forward as you ride.
Long rides or lessons leave you exhausted.
You are not alone.
We all know that our own imbalances are hard on our equine partners, but few of us know how to fix them.
That’s why I created Stable in the Saddle.
Every Rider is Asymmetrical
We all engage in habitual movement patterns, from sliding in and out of the driver’s seat to mounting on the left.
Most of us have old injuries and lingering compensations.
Even our organs are weighted more heavily on the right sides of our bodies!
Generally speaking, humans can get away with some asymmetry in day-to-day life, but we equestrians have to think about our horses’ comfort, too…
…especially when we’re asking them to carry us at speed over 25, 50, or even 100 miles of trail!
Even hours of expensive bodywork and professional training can’t overcome the impact of an uneven rider on her horse’s physique.
Fortunately, change is possible.
In just 90 minutes a week, you can improve your rider symmetry, balance, and core strength for your best-ever season in the saddle.
Are you ready to balance your riding?
Here's how to do it.
Stable in the Saddle is a unique strength training program for distance riders. You will:
Balance your riding with core and symmetry exercises curated specifically for equestrians, by an equestrian.
Make maximum progress in minimum time with just three, 30-minute workouts per week.
Enjoy follow-along workouts with options for different levels. Just press play and I’ll guide you through every exercise.
Explore unilateral (one side at a time) strength and range-of-motion exercises to achieve nuanced control.
…all with minimal equipment you can use right at home.
Become a stronger, more symmetrical, more comfortable rider — for yourself and your horse.
Super-Short Workouts
When you know exactly the right exercises, it doesn’t take hours in the gym to get results. Just press “play” and follow along for three, 30-minute workouts per week, and watch your riding change for the better!
Smart Cross-Training
It’s easy to neglect your own fitness during the busy ride season. But that’s when you – and your horse – need your body to be at its best. SITS will keep you on your game by balancing and enhancing your riding activity.
Lifetime Access
Stable in the Saddle is a program you’ll want to revisit again and again. Spend 6-9 weeks on your first round and enjoy the benefits right away. I recommend returning to SITS at least once a year to balance your physique.
