<< Just wanted to mention that amongest all the good articles in TB this
quarter is another one from Tom. I found it interesting because of his
placing horsemanship before pure science. To me, that means "common
sense" should always prevail!
Nope. Horsemanship is not "common sense". It is years and years of trial and
error dealing, practically, with horses and all their problems.
>> It also talks about overdoing the training and pushing on hills etc.>>
Yes, I'm about to suggest some strong exercise and I always precede these
tours into the exotica of exercise physiology with a warning or two--you're
walking a tightrope between work that is stressful enough to deliver a
conditioning effect and work that will cause injury.
>> BTW, he says if we send him our conditioning program, and it is of
value, he would comment on it.
Care to clarify and send us an address, Tom?>>
Be happy to look at them--send to 211 Skye Rd. Washougal, WA 98671 or fax to
