Hills do the same thing as good, notice I say good, dressage work, but they
get the results must faster. It forces the horse to get its head down, its
backed rounded and to drive off the hind. Hills are also the closest thing
a horse can do to lifting weights. He has to push his body against
gravity. Hill work strenghtens the hind end, the back and the abdominal
muscles and teaches the horse to carry himself much better frame.
