Dabney said "It's completely based on work: the harder/longer, the higher 
the calories and protein. So, after a ride they get all those goodies--how 
much and for how long, dependent on work done."

Bruce said "Dabney, you go girl.  The horses need the carbs and extra 
protein after and during a hard campaign, for the reasons Tom Ivers 
explained here on RC and is his book, Optimized Nutrition. Their bodies are 
ready to receive those nutrients for tissue repair, and the normalization of 
their metabolic hormones, glycogen recovery and glucose levels. Too rich for 
everyday feeding, but good for recovery."

Tom Ivers said "Feed the work."


So Bruce, what do you consume after an "easy" 100?
Just askin'.
