[RC] Training techniques for both human and animal - rides2farApplying this knowledge has been the challenge for me, it?s not easy and can > be expensive. So one must do the best they can and continue to work forward > one small step at a time. Maureen, I want to be careful here not to sound smart aleck or anything, because I absolutely do not mean to be. I had been thinking that *maybe* if a person went through all that round the clock heart monitoring, glucose testing, etc. that something like Carbo-Charge might be the "icing on the cake" to take the "fast" horse up to the "horse that can go beyond the norms of fast". So I'm reading your post and thinking, "Maybe this is someone who is trying to do that" and I looked up your record. From your record it looks like you're a very solid back of the pack completer doing lots of 8-9 hr. 50's, something I would think a horse could do off of good hay and quality feed without a whole lot of what you call "not so easy and expensive" technical stuff. I'm just curious as to why you'd do it? Do you hope to push your horses super fast once you figure it out...is the experimentation just fascinating to you, or do you to plan to continue to pace the same but feel this gives you an even bigger safety margin?
