Bev, I CAN lift 100 lbs. ?I DON'T lift more than 30 lbs unless someone is dying 'cause I don't want a fourth pelvic surgery or any other unnecessary damage. ?As a sports medicine doc, I'd expect you to back me up 100%. ?I don't think I'm fat (?) and I fully intend to ride the BigHorn 100 next year...which is WHY I recommend being less abusive to your body...so you can tear it up doing something you really love :) ?Another unpopular recommendation I have is to take dressage or balanced riding type lessons from a professional. ?If I'd done this when I was 25 instead of 45, my body and my horses' bodies would have benefited greatly.
