LEANER STRONGER RIDER - The Sweaty Equestrian

"losing weight" not working anymore?

Let me Guess:

Riding and farm chores used to be enough to keep you fit, but lately, the pounds are creeping on. So you cut calories.

That worked for a while…

Until it didn’t. So you added cardio. You cut carbs, or fat, or both. You even tried intermittent fasting.

That worked for a while…

Until it didn’t. So you slashed calories even more…only to hit a plateau.

Now you’re hungry, fatigued, frustrated, and afraid of gaining it all back the moment you give in to temptation.

You’re tired of fighting your body and staying stuck no matter how hard you try.

Leaner Stronger Rider is the change you need.

Join me for 12 weeks. Change your body composition forever.

Hi! I’m Tamara Baysinger, creator of The Sweaty Equestrian. I’m an endurance rider, NASM-certified personal trainer and nutrition coach, and corrective exercise specialist based in the northwest corner of the United States.

I help horsewomen from all over the world get fit to ride stronger in a day and longer in their lives.

My Leaner Stronger Rider Program gives you 12 weeks of step-by-step guidance to help you trade unwanted bodyfat for lean, strong, metabolism-boosting muscle.

You’ll gain the strength and energy you need to rebuild your confidence and ride better for life.

I’ll guide you through the maze of nutrition advice and teach you workouts that actually move the needle.

We are’t crash dieting or churning away for hours on the treadmill. Leaner Stronger Riders is about working with your body, not against it, to make sustainable change.

Let's make it happen!

Get ready for a complete paradigm shift

Here’s what most riders do when they want to lose weight: They eat less and exercise more.

And that does work. For a while. Pounds come off the scale…but as far as your body knows, you’re in danger. It tries to protect you by matching your energy expenditure to your energy intake. It even cuts back on your muscle tissue!

That’s why you plateau. It’s also why you regain even more weight the instant you give up on your diet.

Leaner Stronger Rider gets you off the rollercoaster.

Over 12 weeks, I’ll teach you how to fuel and exercise appropriately so you can regain true metabolic health. You’ll start sending your body a signal that says it’s safe to quit storing fat. Then you’ll finally be able to move the needle for good.

With just four, 30-minute workouts per week, you’ll build lean, attractive muscle that not only supports your riding, but also enables you to eat MORE quality food and still lose bodyfat.

One rider shared Leaner Stronger Rider with her physical therapist. He said, “I rarely do this, but I give this program two thumbs up. It’s clearly evidence-based and well thought out.”

That’s exactly right.

This is not a rapid weight loss program. It’s a launchpad to set you up for a lifetime of lean, strong riding.

Nutrition

You can’t out-exercise the effects of a poor diet. We’ll implement The Sweaty Equestrian Food Rules as a foundation, then layer on more nuanced tactics to build muscle and lean out. Our methods are science-backed and realistic.

Workouts

When it comes to gaining muscle and losing fat – especially as we age – all exercise is not created equally. We’ll do the exact kinds of workouts you need to rev up your metabolism and build strength to ride for decades to come.

Frequently asked questions

What equipment will I need for the workouts?

All workouts in the Leaner Stronger Rider program are designed to be done at home, but you will need some equipment to really tap into the muscle gain and fat loss benefits.

You’ll need dumbbells (pairs of 10-pound and 15-pound dumbbells are a great place for most horsewomen to start) and either the ability to run outdoors OR a cardio machine like a stationary bike, elliptical, or treadmill.

Tip: You can usually find great deals on dumbbells and cardio machines on websites like Facebook Marketplace. You probably even have a friend who will let you borrow what you need!

How big is the time commitment per week?

Your Leaner Stronger Rider workouts will take 2 hours per week.

The program includes optional, rider-specific extended warm-ups and directions for how to include additional exercise if you wish.

Your program materials (video, audio, and written guidance) will take about 30-40 minutes per week to complete.

I don't have any experience in the gym. Can I do this?

Absolutely! All of the workout videos are follow-along style with the equipment listed above.

I’ll coach you through every exercise, plus harder and easier versions to suit your individual level.

How long will I have access to the program?

Purchasing the Leaner Stronger Rider program gives you lifetime access.

If you decide to become a TSE Member, you’ll have access to Leaner Stronger Rider (plus all other membership benefits) as long as your membership is active.

Is it a good deal to become a member?

The Sweaty Equestrian membership is $55 per month, $138 per quarter, or $228 for 6 months.

You’ll get access to the Leaner Stronger Rider program for as long as you remain a member. You’ll also get direct Q&A email access to me, monthly group coaching calls, a supportive crew of fellow horsewomen in our private Facebook community, group challenges for fun and motivation, plus my comprehensive Essential Equestrian Fitness program, and more.

Is Leaner Stronger Rider just for horsewomen?

While the TSE Membership is especially for women, Leaner Stronger Rider is available to anyone. Just bear in mind that we do cover the material from a predominantly female point of view, including issues related to peri-menopause and menopause.

What about the horse part? Most people in the program and membership ride, and we talk about rider-specific fitness, but family and friends of horsewomen have found great success with The Sweaty Equestrian as well. You’re welcome to join us!

I'm interested in taking a GLP-1. Is Leaner Stronger Rider compatible?

Absolutely. The Leaner Stronger Rider program will teach you key fitness and nutrition concepts to protect your muscle while on a GLP-1. This is key to your long-term success.

The best-case scenario is to do Leaner Stronger Rider before starting the drug because it will prepare your metabolism for optimal results. You’ll also establish crucial lifestyle habits to preserve your leanness after you stop taking the drug.

Can I access the program on my phone?

Yes. Simply download the free Teachable app on Android or iOS. When you log in, it’ll take you straight to your Sweaty Equestrian membership content.
