Musculature

Musculature

Understanding how muscles work is one of the most fundamental concepts that can influence how we ride and train our horses. Movement is created by the skeletal muscles pulling on the bones to operate the joints. Every bone is moved by a muscle. The muscles cross either one joint or several.

On this course we will learn about the major muscles, how they can affect performance, and what we can do to help.
