Hi. I own my first horse and have been riding for 15 years. I struggle with balance and was hoping you could do a video on a workout to improve balance
Hi there! Balance is tricky for sure. If you go to the main page of this channel and use the search bar and type in 'Balance' you will find a few relevant videos that will hopefully help you 🙂 Lack of balance can be rooted in a need for more core strength so that is a good place to start. Hope that helps and let me know how you get on!
Looks like such a simple workout but it really showed me how much I need to work on strengthening my body to become a better rider. Thank you so much for putting this together!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed the workout. You're right that simple can definitely still be challenging. I hope you start feeling a difference in your riding over time! 😊💪
Hi! I'm a young rider and while riding my dad noticed my legs were really weak and your video helped me A LOT! Thank you for making this video I'm now better at riding and stronger, but I do still somehow get bruises from the saddle when I ride sometimes lol
I am glad to hear the workout helped you! I can relate to bruises when riding. I don't know where you get them but as someone who is relatively skinny I sometimes get them around my seatbones 😊
It took about 5 minutes to die doing this but i'm going to try and finish edit:I finished! it's a great workout, and since I can only ride once a week I need to work out to build and keep muscles for when I do ride. I'll be coming back to this!
Yesterday was no stirrups day, and today I had the great idea to do this workout: my legs are literally shaking lol. The workout is great! Hurts a lot! Recently got back to riding after a year off, and really need to get my strength back, this is super helpful, I could only do 10 mins of it, but I’ll try to gradually do more and more. Thanks a lot!
That's funny - I had a no stirrups day yesterday too and it had been a while. It's hard! Well done for adding a workout on top of it! Keep at it and I'm sure it will feel easier with time 💪😊
Who else loved when she sat down? HALLELUJAH!!!! 😭😭 I’m getting into riding after almost a year and gotta get into shape 😩 love hate relationship with these workouts 😂
Ima beginner horse rider so this will be very helpful! 😅 getting a late start on a dream of mine at age 28 wanting to ride a horse well enough to be a cowboy
I love that - let's keep the dream alive and work towards it! 🙌 Getting into/staying in shape will definitely help you feel more balanced and confident in the saddle. Let me know how you get on and remember to use your dream as motivation when it gets tough! ❤️😊
Hi! Just want to say that yesterday i had a really bad lesson and couldnt control my horse when there were other horses around me. Today i desided to do an equestrian workout and choosed yours. Gotta say im 10 min in and already destroyed my legs. Probably wont finish the workout but will try to do it every day until my next lesson beacause i train once a week. I really believe there will be a huge change and for sure will update u(thanks for the video
My legs are going to be sore for sure before I did this today I haven’t worked out in 2 or 3 years maybe so this is going to help me so much thank you!
Wow that was a really hard workout, I cursed at you a lot 😂😂 didn't make it all the way through but will continue with this workout and hopefully I'll eventually be able to do all of it 😂 thank you!
i have a weak leg lol so im going to try finish this workout! i ride once a week, or once every two weeks because of school and studying, so i want to keep my muscles, and i want stronger legs
Building leg strength is a great goal! Not only will it help your riding but you'll probably feel a difference in your everyday life too 😊 Keep up the good work! 💪
i've been doing it for around 6 months, and my legs are so much stronger than they were before. i'm so happy with these results i definitely recommend this, my instructor saw a huge difference in my aids :))
This is so good the planking is the hardest bit for sure but i really appreciate this thank you so much especially doing so much collection with my horse it requires a lot of leg ❤
I'm so glad you like it Ella. Yes, the leg strength comes in handy for collection, especially on 'heavier' horses, right? Love that you are working on yourself to be an awesome partner for your horse and working towards your riding goals! Keep it up! 👌💪👏
@@HorseLearnerFitness hej Idun thanks for replying, it’s mostly about keeping my core balance in the end of a training session, i train wednesday with jump training and then Thursday dressage training, mostly at the end of the jumping session my body is toast and i train with younger people ( i am 44 years) so i need to work harder to keep up with them 😂 , have been considering extra workouts for a while and now i found your training and i will try it out for some weeks and see if it makes a difference. smiles from Sweden 🇸🇪
This was pretty intense! Only got to around half way through and decided that I’d have a break and cool down! The strengths that you would gain from this would be amazing! Thanks for this! Will definitely come back and give it another go :)
Love your determination! Imagine the satisfaction the day you do get through it (and I know you will). Also, you can always adjust the exercises to make them a little less intense. Let me know how you get on and thank you for working out with me! 💪😊
First time, I couldn't complete six minutes. Second time, I finished 20 minutes. The third time, I didn't realize that I completed the whole exercise! Thanks for your help!
Holy shit 😵 that was amazing, I had to skip 10 secs once and that was on the plank, my back was killing me. Gonna try and do it all, no skips tomorrow😂 wish me luck.
Amazing effort! 👏 A 10 second break is totally allowed (those planks are hard!) , but I commend you for your drive! Let me know how it goes next time! 💪😊
I’m really happy to find this video! I need to be stronger because today while riding I realized my legs where weak….. soon I’m starting with a stricter teacher because my current one is going to College. There is no saying which horse I’ll get. Some of the horses need really strong legs to steer and or get going
I'm so glad you like the channel. Increased leg strength is a great goal for improving your riding - there's plenty of videos that will help you with that 😊🦵
Thank you so much for making all these workout videos! I use them daily, as I'm trying to get into better shape! I was seriously dying during this, but it is such a good workout! And, it's helped me find confidence in my body, even as I try to better myself! You're the best!
I am so glad the videos are helping you reach your goals! Thank you for leaving this comment and letting me know ❤️ If you have any video requests let me know! I'm more than happy to create content tailored to my subscribers! 😊
You have a body, and when you're at the beach you have a beach body. That's all I have to say about that. You're working out and taking care of your health and fitness for both the short and long term - that's the value I invite you to focus on and feel into ❤️ 🤗
Hi Aya! Yes, this is very common. We all have muscular imbalances and we're also built differently. It's great however that you're aware of it so your can start correcting it when you exercise by adding a little more effort on your weaker side. Over time, it will get better! ❤️😊
Hi Julie. How exciting that you're getting back in the saddle! Be kind to yourself in the process of training yourself back up. These things take time and that's OK! If you want a structured program to follow what you which is designed exactly for people in your life your situation that are getting back in the saddle after a break, you can check out the Kick Starter Program. There are 4 20-minute workouts per week and it will help you build the foundational strength, flexibility and endurance for horse riding. Www.horselearnerfitness.com Just make a plan and stay consistent and you'll feel better in no time 😊 I'm rooting for you 🥳
Hi I’m a young equestrian and I am using this workout to become a stronger and better rider for my horse. How many times a week should I be doing this workout?
Hi Juniper. Thank you for following the channel! I always recommend that people vary their workouts so that you avoid focusing on just certain parts of the body of a particular type of training. How often you work out depends on your goals and the time you have to dedicate, but 20-30 minutes 3-4 times per week is a great start 👊
It has taken five minutes for me to get tired but my teatshe says if I want to ride I need to work out I am trying my hardest but this is so hard😢 Edit I can't finish it but I will try to get better I tried my hardest ❤its so hard😢i will keep you posted and see if it gets better I will do it tomorrow to and update you this weare I stopped! 11:27
Hi there! It's great that you're working out to improve your riding, but if you just started then this video is quite challenging! Try some of the other videos on the channel that are shorter and easier and then you can come back to this one (and you'll notice your progress!). Try to be your own cheerleader and give yourself credit for all the effort you are putting in. You got this 💪😊
Awesome workout and it's improving my riding! I love how you don't talk "connecting with the earth" bla, bla, bla. I connect with riding and horses! I love the beeps as well, as it allows me to zone out and know when to tune back in! My favorites series so far! Thank you!
Hi Madeleine. The response is basically the same for all workouts. It really depends on your training goals and how many times you exercise in total per week. But training your legs 2-3 times per week is great!
I love this workout. Straight to the exercise, clear and easy to follow! Great workout that is not too hard that I give up but is giving a strong core and legs. Only 20 minutes so I can handle in my busy day! Great pace too! Thanks!
Wow! Thank you for the lovely feedback. I'm super stoked you enjoyed it and hope you'll be back on the channel to continue working out with me. Let me know if you have workout requests! 😊💪
Nice job! Yes, it can be hard getting out of bed the next day, but over time the soreness will get better and I try to think of it as a reminder of the effort I put in 😁
I just started my equestrian journey in my mid-30s. I know I need to strengthen my legs for riding, but after 10 min of this exercise I was already dying. I have a long way to go! 😆
Congratulations on starting your riding journey - that's super exciting! 🐴😊 I love that you are working on your fitness out of the saddle to ride better! This routine is not an easy one, but make some adjustments in the beginning to make it easier and then work up to doing the whole thing. You got this! 💪
this is one of my favorite workouts of yours. i’ve been following for a while and i can say my riding has improved lots in these past few months, i moved up to the 3 foot recently. LOVE your channel. keep it up!!❤❤
Thank you for the lovely feedback Rachel and I am thrilled to hear you are seeing and feeling improvements in your riding! I'm doing a motivation segment in my newsletter about people like you who are putting in the work and getting results. If you'd like to share your experience with the rest of the HLF community, send me a message at hello@horselearnerfitness.com and we can continue the conversation 😊 Keep up the amazing work! 💪❤️
Amazing work! I love the energy and commitment and I'm sure that if you continue your training you will definitely stay noticing progress in the saddle soon! 💪😊 Keep me posted! ❤️
Well done! 👏 Strengthening your legs and glutes will definitely help you in your jumping! Keep at it and let me know when you can tell a difference when you ride! 💪😊
Hi Alyssa. Planks can be tricky, but what's great about them is that you can adapt them really easily. Have you tried doing them on your knees first? Then, if you're feeling OK doing that you. An start straightening out one leg at a time so only one knee touches the ground. Then you can alternate between plank on the knees, then a few seconds on the toes and then back on the knees. Just make sure you pull your belly button in the whole time to support your lower back. I hope that helps! 💪😊
Squats and lunges can be heavy on the knees and if you're ever in pain, please stop the exercise and try alternative movements. It's unfortunately very difficult for me to assess this for you since I don't know your background, fitness level etc. If you are concerned, I advise you to speak to a physical therapist or medical professional as I am neither of those things ❤️ Hope you get some clarity and continue on your fitness journey! 😊💪
Thanks a lot 😭 that was really good workout i really enjoyed it and it was rlly helpful i just started horse riding i noticed that i have weak legs my posture always wrong 😂 and i can't keep my balance especially while galloping. And i just started following your instructions. I hope i'll get better and i'll keep u updated while getting better
Hi Charif. How exciting that you have started riding 😊 It's such an exciting time and so much to learn - it can feel overwhelming for sure! Be kind to yourself and enjoy the process. We have all been beginners and I'm sure you will make great progress. It's amazing that you are also thinking about how you can support your riding also out of the saddle. I hope you will get benefit out of the videos on this channel and do keep us posted on your horse riding journey! ❤️🐴
Thank you so much for this workout🥰! I thought I was going to look for a workout now and then do it tomorrow, but your workout motivated me so much that I did the whole workout at 1 o’clock in the morning🥵😂
OMG!!!! Absolutely LOVED everything about this workout!!! Timing, graphics, instruction, your personal input and your outfit!!! Perfect for any leg workout!!! 😍
It's been like a week doing these exercises and others from your vids i still have problems with "plank saw" but I am much better than ever before also i noticed that even my riding has emproved , thank you a lot ❤❤
Hi Aya! Super happy to hear you're noticing a difference in your riding 🙌 What is your struggle with the plank saw? Maybe I can give you some tips or pointers? 😊
It's completely normal! It just takes time to build up the strength. Take short breaks if you need and focus on maintaining correct technique. If your hips come too far down it places load on your lower back (which we don't want). Also, you can do this on your knees to make it easier. Experiment with switching between knees and toes. Hope that helps@@AyaCharif-ot5gx
im a beginner ish rider, almost at show level, and my dad kept on saying I cant just do horse back riding and that it requires a lot of muscles, so I'm finally gonna try and workout
This is so good the planking is the hardest bit for sure but i really appreciate this thank you so much especially doing so much collection with my horse it requires a lot of leg ❤
It's been a week since i started doing these workouts and some others however at first it wasn't that easy but now i can say my performance has really improved i hope i'll improve my skills more and i hope this will help me with horse riding 🤭
Just started this today as my riding instructor said I needed work on my leg strength. Got half way through and had to stop but excited to hopefully get through it soon.
Well done! This is a tough routine, but you'll get it! 💪 Keep it up and you will start to feel the difference. Keep me posted on your progress and if your instructor notices change after a while 😊👍
It's quite individual, but you could do this workout twice per week and add on one or two others on other days so you don't end up working exactly the same muscles each time. With variation and consistent workouts I am sure you'll feel a change soon! 👊
When I first did this yesterday, I only got 5 minutes through,and today I pushed and got all the way through. ❤ I’ve been looking for a good equestrian workout because I sadly only ride once a week, and I found one! Thank you for making this ❤
Well done Zoe! 💪 I'm glad you find this helpful and I'm sure you'll find other workouts on the channel that you enjoy too so your legs can get a rest from time to time 😁❤️
It's my first day doing this workout and my legs are shaking terribly but I love it! Huge thanks for such amazing exercises 😍 I'm returning back into saddle the next month, so I need to get into shape urgently
How exciting that you're starting riding again and well done for preparing for it! Happy you liked it. I know it's tough, but it will get easier with time 😊💪
I’m exited to try this I love all sports mainly horse riding and running but I have knee pain when I run or go upstairs and my doctor said it was because my thighs and but muscles are to weak 😂 and the horse I’m ridding needs a little extra pressure to trot and my weak little legs can’t do that so I hope this helps I’ll update you ❤️
Sorry to hear you are having knee pain - that's no fun! I certainly think strengthening your legs and hips can be beneficial, just make sure you listen to your body and stay away from (or modify) exercises that hurt. I hope my workouts can help, and yes - please keep me posted! 😊❤️
I broke my knee cap in half a long time ago and I have started this work out. I realize how much leg strength I have lost especially on my left side. This is an awesome work out. Can't wait to improve my leg strength.
Ouch! That did not sound good but amazing that you're past it and training! 👏 Lots of leg strength videos on the channel for you to use on your journey. Let me know how it goes ❤️👍
I had riding lesson today and i can't believe how much i developed in such a short time ,,all thanks to this channel and all your workouts vids , thanks gurll,i hope i'll get even better
So glad you enjoyed the workout! It's very difficult to answer your question without knowing your goals, what you do otherwise in terms of fitness etc, but personally I try to workout my legs at least twice per week 😊
Question: If I ride once a week, how often should I do this outside of riding? Every other day? Should I gradually increase the amount of Exercise o er time or start heavy and frequent to build muscle?
Hi Madison. It really depends on your goals and how much time you want to dedicate to working out. In general the more often you can include a workout in your week the quicker you will see results. Start at a level that feels good for you but still pushes your limits and then progress from there both in workout duration and intensity 😊💪
Definitely will be using this workout from now on! My left leg is still very weak from acl surgery but I’m determined to make it right still and to make my riding better😄
Thank you for this video! My body is really weak after a long break from horses but I still managed to do 11mins! I will definitely do this workout to gain strenght again!
11 minutes is a great start! Well done! You can also take more breaks or make the exercises a little easier to adapt to the right level for you. Let me know how it goes 😊💪
I have only been riding for two years and I’m still young but I have done this workout a few times and I ride everyday but Thursday Sunday and I ride most saturdays but on the days I don’t ride I do this workout and it has helped me gain strength witch made me more confident in my riding today
Hi Reagan. I'm so happy to hear the workouts gave you more confidence in your riding! I hope you continue using fitness to reach your riding goals and thank you for being on the channel! 🐴😊❤️
im half way through this and wow I can really feel my legs. Im going to try and do this everyday to help increase my leg strength when riding but also to help me lose weight lol
Well done for setting goals and working towards them. If you stick with them I am sure you will notice a positive change in your riding. I'm rooting for you - let me know how you get on! 💪🐴😊
Oh, don't be discouraged - this is a tough one! Try adjusting the exercises a bit to make them a little easier or take longer breaks in the beginning and over time as you come back to it, you will gradually feel the difference. I'm rooting for you! 👏💪😊
I'd say most of the workouts on the channel will be beneficial for jumping because you need leg, glute and core strength plus good balance for jumping 😊
Totally understandable - two pointing is challenging, but I'm sure working on your strength combined with technique will help you. Good luck and let us know how it goes 😊
I've just gotten back into riding after a long hiatus and I could barely get through a third of this routine, but I'm going to persevere! Thank you for the inspiration!
Welcome back in the saddle! 👏 This routine is tough for sure, but I love your commitment! 😊 If you need, there are other videos on the channel that would be good to work up to this one. Keep up the good work! 💪
I was about 18 minutes in when it really started kicking in! I’m a young beginner and I have lessons once a week. this workout was a true workout and I now know how my mom feels in her 45 minute long workouts.😢 thank you! I will be updating tomorrow to see if I improved! :)
I'm glad you felt the burn 😉 Fitness is a long game and you likely won't feel much difference (other then being a bit sore perhaps?) tomorrow, but keep exercising consistently and you will over time notice a difference in your riding 😊 Let me know how you get on and good luck for your next lesson! 👍
It's a process - don't be too hard on yourself. Take it one step at a time and do easier versions until you feel strong enough to do the more difficult ones. You can do it! 💪😊

Is it okay to feel that My right side is weaker than my left one?

It has taken five minutes for me to get tired but my teatshe says if I want to ride I need to work out I am trying my hardest but this is so hard😢
Edit I can't finish it but I will try to get better I tried my hardest ❤its so hard😢i will keep you posted and see if it gets better I will do it tomorrow to and update you this weare I stopped! 11:27
Hi there! It's great that you're working out to improve your riding, but if you just started then this video is quite challenging! Try some of the other videos on the channel that are shorter and easier and then you can come back to this one (and you'll notice your progress!). Try to be your own cheerleader and give yourself credit for all the effort you are putting in. You got this 💪😊
@@HorseLearnerFitness thank you so much what videos would you recommend for a 13 year old?
Awesome workout and it's improving my riding! I love how you don't talk "connecting with the earth" bla, bla, bla. I connect with riding and horses! I love the beeps as well, as it allows me to zone out and know when to tune back in! My favorites series so far! Thank you!
Thank you for the lovely feedback Jamie! I'm so glad you're getting results both on and out of the saddle! 😊💪
Hi! How many times a week to you recommend doing this workout as a young rider?
Hi Madeleine. The response is basically the same for all workouts. It really depends on your training goals and how many times you exercise in total per week. But training your legs 2-3 times per week is great!
This was a great workout! Thanks for sharing it with us, really helps! ^^
Happy to hear you liked it! 👍😊
I love this workout. Straight to the exercise, clear and easy to follow! Great workout that is not too hard that I give up but is giving a strong core and legs. Only 20 minutes so I can handle in my busy day! Great pace too! Thanks!
Wow! Thank you for the lovely feedback. I'm super stoked you enjoyed it and hope you'll be back on the channel to continue working out with me. Let me know if you have workout requests! 😊💪
I did this workout last night and I’m feeling it today 😭 But it’s a great workout!!
Nice job! Yes, it can be hard getting out of bed the next day, but over time the soreness will get better and I try to think of it as a reminder of the effort I put in 😁
I just started my equestrian journey in my mid-30s. I know I need to strengthen my legs for riding, but after 10 min of this exercise I was already dying. I have a long way to go! 😆
Congratulations on starting your riding journey - that's super exciting! 🐴😊 I love that you are working on your fitness out of the saddle to ride better! This routine is not an easy one, but make some adjustments in the beginning to make it easier and then work up to doing the whole thing. You got this! 💪
this is one of my favorite workouts of yours. i’ve been following for a while and i can say my riding has improved lots in these past few months, i moved up to the 3 foot recently. LOVE your channel. keep it up!!❤❤
Thank you for the lovely feedback Rachel and I am thrilled to hear you are seeing and feeling improvements in your riding!
I'm doing a motivation segment in my newsletter about people like you who are putting in the work and getting results. If you'd like to share your experience with the rest of the HLF community, send me a message at hello@horselearnerfitness.com and we can continue the conversation 😊 Keep up the amazing work! 💪❤️
Hi thank you for posting this! I just started taking riding lessons and I kid you not, this video made me sweat up a storm!
Yeah this one is a hard one! Good luck with your classes. I hope the workouts will help you feel more confident in the saddle! 😊
i’m an equestrian and did this today and am going to do this every day! i made it through the whole thing and i hope i see improvement in my riding!
Amazing work! I love the energy and commitment and I'm sure that if you continue your training you will definitely stay noticing progress in the saddle soon! 💪😊 Keep me posted! ❤️
i have been riding for a year and wanted to exile in the core aspect of riding, this video has tested my limits in a great way! Amazing..
I'm so glad you find it helpful Arwen ! 😊 Please keep me posted on your progress both with the fitness and riding 💪🐴
I’m only 6 minutes in and I’m sweating I’m doing to this to jump better with my body and a stable leg
Well done! 👏 Strengthening your legs and glutes will definitely help you in your jumping! Keep at it and let me know when you can tell a difference when you ride! 💪😊
I’m riding next Wednesday today I’m a little sore in the thigh but I’m feeling stronger now!!!
@@Jpcl.equestrian.academy Great to hear! Good luck with your lesson 🏇
anybody got tips for panking? I just cant do it, my feet slip away or I just cant do them I don't know😭
Hi Alyssa. Planks can be tricky, but what's great about them is that you can adapt them really easily. Have you tried doing them on your knees first? Then, if you're feeling OK doing that you. An start straightening out one leg at a time so only one knee touches the ground. Then you can alternate between plank on the knees, then a few seconds on the toes and then back on the knees. Just make sure you pull your belly button in the whole time to support your lower back. I hope that helps! 💪😊
Just curious, will it gives pressure or burden to my lower limb/knees as im currenty 80kg but really want to improve my leg
Squats and lunges can be heavy on the knees and if you're ever in pain, please stop the exercise and try alternative movements.
It's unfortunately very difficult for me to assess this for you since I don't know your background, fitness level etc. If you are concerned, I advise you to speak to a physical therapist or medical professional as I am neither of those things ❤️ Hope you get some clarity and continue on your fitness journey! 😊💪
Thanks for this video i literally need this because my coach mad of me because i didn’t use my leg cause its weak 😂
I hope it helps you reach your riding goals! 💪😊
Greate workout, muscles are burning 🔥 Thanks a lot for such hot exercises!
So happy you enjoyed it! 😊💪
Thanks a lot 😭 that was really good workout i really enjoyed it and it was rlly helpful i just started horse riding i noticed that i have weak legs my posture always wrong 😂 and i can't keep my balance especially while galloping. And i just started following your instructions.
I hope i'll get better and i'll keep u updated while getting better
Hi Charif. How exciting that you have started riding 😊 It's such an exciting time and so much to learn - it can feel overwhelming for sure! Be kind to yourself and enjoy the process. We have all been beginners and I'm sure you will make great progress. It's amazing that you are also thinking about how you can support your riding also out of the saddle. I hope you will get benefit out of the videos on this channel and do keep us posted on your horse riding journey! ❤️🐴
Thank you so much for this workout🥰! I thought I was going to look for a workout now and then do it tomorrow, but your workout motivated me so much that I did the whole workout at 1 o’clock in the morning🥵😂
Wow! A nocturnal workout! I'm glad it inspired you and thanks for working out with me 😊
OMG!!!! Absolutely LOVED everything about this workout!!! Timing, graphics, instruction, your personal input and your outfit!!! Perfect for any leg workout!!! 😍
Wow - thank you for the lovely feedback Cynthia! ❤️ I'm so happy you enjoyed it and hope you'll continue working out with me! 😊
It's been like a week doing these exercises and others from your vids i still have problems with "plank saw" but I am much better than ever before also i noticed that even my riding has emproved , thank you a lot ❤❤
Hi Aya! Super happy to hear you're noticing a difference in your riding 🙌 What is your struggle with the plank saw? Maybe I can give you some tips or pointers? 😊
I can't hold it the whole time is it bc my core is weak?
It's completely normal! It just takes time to build up the strength. Take short breaks if you need and focus on maintaining correct technique. If your hips come too far down it places load on your lower back (which we don't want). Also, you can do this on your knees to make it easier. Experiment with switching between knees and toes. Hope that helps@@AyaCharif-ot5gx
im a beginner ish rider, almost at show level, and my dad kept on saying I cant just do horse back riding and that it requires a lot of muscles, so I'm finally gonna try and workout
Thanks for commenting. I hope you will find it helps you ride even more effectively and that you enjoy working out as well 💪👏😊
Baby sadly
This is so good the planking is the hardest bit for sure but i really appreciate this thank you so much especially doing so much collection with my horse it requires a lot of leg ❤
So glad you enjoyed it! 😊👍 Let me know how that collection comes along! 🐎
My leg has been so much better since doing this workout! Thanks so much!
Amazing! So happy to hear that 👍😊
How Long have u been doing this workout?
you were killing me with those static squats 😰
Sorry 😁 Well done for doing them 👏
Can men also do this exercises
Yes of course! 😊👍
It's been a week since i started doing these workouts and some others however at first it wasn't that easy but now i can say my performance has really improved i hope i'll improve my skills more and i hope this will help me with horse riding 🤭
That's great! Consistency is key - that's when the results come. We'll done and let me know what changes you feel in your riding 😊🐴
@@HorseLearnerFitness i am going today to the horse stall i'll keep u updated about what changes that i make . 💗💗
Just started this today as my riding instructor said I needed work on my leg strength. Got half way through and had to stop but excited to hopefully get through it soon.
Well done! This is a tough routine, but you'll get it! 💪 Keep it up and you will start to feel the difference. Keep me posted on your progress and if your instructor notices change after a while 😊👍
Thanks for putting this together, I’m gonna do this for the next two weeks, see what happens, thanks again
Amazing! Please report back on your progress 😊👍
3min in... legs are burning and shaking lol
The start and end are often the worst part! You'll get there - just keep being consistent with your workouts 😊💪👏
@@HorseLearnerFitness my teen daughters and I are going to be doing this workout a few times a week! Thank you!
@@Lexieplusthree I love that you're doing it together - accountability buddies and motivation all in one! Let me know how it goes! 💪😊
0:32 the start just using jt for myself
👍
How often should I do this workout to get my legs stronger?
It's quite individual, but you could do this workout twice per week and add on one or two others on other days so you don't end up working exactly the same muscles each time. With variation and consistent workouts I am sure you'll feel a change soon! 👊
@@HorseLearnerFitness Ok thank you!
This workout was amazing!!! Thank you!!! I couldn’t do all the exercises on my first time but I’m going to keep coming back and working on it. 🐴❤️
So happy you enjoyed it Rachel! It will get easier over time. Let me know how you get on! 😊💪
When I first did this yesterday, I only got 5 minutes through,and today I pushed and got all the way through. ❤ I’ve been looking for a good equestrian workout because I sadly only ride once a week, and I found one! Thank you for making this ❤
Well done Zoe! 💪 I'm glad you find this helpful and I'm sure you'll find other workouts on the channel that you enjoy too so your legs can get a rest from time to time 😁❤️
Omg! Great channel! I feel in love!
Wow, thank you for leaving such a lovely comment! Looking forward to working out more together! 💪😊
Amazing workout! thank you!!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Let me know if you have any requests 😊💪
It's my first day doing this workout and my legs are shaking terribly but I love it! Huge thanks for such amazing exercises 😍 I'm returning back into saddle the next month, so I need to get into shape urgently
How exciting that you're starting riding again and well done for preparing for it! Happy you liked it. I know it's tough, but it will get easier with time 😊💪
I’m exited to try this I love all sports mainly horse riding and running but I have knee pain when I run or go upstairs and my doctor said it was because my thighs and but muscles are to weak 😂 and the horse I’m ridding needs a little extra pressure to trot and my weak little legs can’t do that so I hope this helps I’ll update you ❤️
Sorry to hear you are having knee pain - that's no fun! I certainly think strengthening your legs and hips can be beneficial, just make sure you listen to your body and stay away from (or modify) exercises that hurt. I hope my workouts can help, and yes - please keep me posted! 😊❤️
I broke my knee cap in half a long time ago and I have started this work out. I realize how much leg strength I have lost especially on my left side. This is an awesome work out. Can't wait to improve my leg strength.
Ouch! That did not sound good but amazing that you're past it and training! 👏 Lots of leg strength videos on the channel for you to use on your journey. Let me know how it goes ❤️👍
I had riding lesson today and i can't believe how much i developed in such a short time ,,all thanks to this channel and all your workouts vids , thanks gurll,i hope i'll get even better

Thank you! Great workout!
Thank you Larry! Glad you liked it 😊
Amazing workout!
So glad you enjoyed it! 😊❤️
I really like this workout, but how often should I do it? Twice a day, once a day, every other day, or once a week.
So glad you enjoyed the workout! It's very difficult to answer your question without knowing your goals, what you do otherwise in terms of fitness etc, but personally I try to workout my legs at least twice per week 😊
Question: If I ride once a week, how often should I do this outside of riding? Every other day? Should I gradually increase the amount of
Exercise o er time or start heavy and frequent to build muscle?
Hi Madison. It really depends on your goals and how much time you want to dedicate to working out. In general the more often you can include a workout in your week the quicker you will see results. Start at a level that feels good for you but still pushes your limits and then progress from there both in workout duration and intensity 😊💪
HEY! Thank you very much! Sepas! Very GOOD one!
Thank you Mohammad. I'm glad you liked it 😊👍
Definitely will be using this workout from now on! My left leg is still very weak from acl surgery but I’m determined to make it right still and to make my riding better😄
Glad to hear you like the workout and that it's helping your recovery and strength development! ❤️💪
Thank you for this video! My body is really weak after a long break from horses but I still managed to do 11mins! I will definitely do this workout to gain strenght again!
11 minutes is a great start! Well done! You can also take more breaks or make the exercises a little easier to adapt to the right level for you. Let me know how it goes 😊💪
I have only been riding for two years and I’m still young but I have done this workout a few times and I ride everyday but Thursday Sunday and I ride most saturdays but on the days I don’t ride I do this workout and it has helped me gain strength witch made me more confident in my riding today
Hi Reagan. I'm so happy to hear the workouts gave you more confidence in your riding! I hope you continue using fitness to reach your riding goals and thank you for being on the channel! 🐴😊❤️
Thank you for repliying to me :)
im half way through this and wow I can really feel my legs. Im going to try and do this everyday to help increase my leg strength when riding but also to help me lose weight lol
Well done for setting goals and working towards them. If you stick with them I am sure you will notice a positive change in your riding. I'm rooting for you - let me know how you get on! 💪🐴😊
This video is so helpful! I realized that my legs are really weak so I decided to workout! (Sry for my bad English bc I learning English now)
I'm so glad you think so! Your English is great - good luck on the learning and fitness journey! 💪😊
@@HorseLearnerFitness thank you!
Are you pulsing slightly in the static squats please?
I sometimes do if I struggle to keep the squat completely static 😊
Thank u for helping us❤️🔥
My pleasure! Happy to know it helps you! 😊❤️
as a 12 yr ld this was verry fun!!
Glad you had fun with it! 😊👍
I get muscle spasms after riding definitely need to go this
I hope the workouts can help you! 😊
Im 3 minutes in and im dying, I guess that means its good 😭😭
Oh, don't be discouraged - this is a tough one! Try adjusting the exercises a bit to make them a little easier or take longer breaks in the beginning and over time as you come back to it, you will gradually feel the difference. I'm rooting for you! 👏💪😊
6:21
Them static squats 🥵
Yup..! They're not gentle.. 😉💪 Good job hanging in there!
Are there any workouts that help with jumping
I'd say most of the workouts on the channel will be beneficial for jumping because you need leg, glute and core strength plus good balance for jumping 😊
@@HorseLearnerFitness thanks I struggle with two pointing so hopefully it helps
Totally understandable - two pointing is challenging, but I'm sure working on your strength combined with technique will help you. Good luck and let us know how it goes 😊
@@HorseLearnerFitness thanks I will
This is great! Thank you so much.
So glad you liked it! Hope to see you back again soon 😊
0:32 is start
Actually I think it might be 0:35 😁
Thanks!
You're welcome 😊 Thank you for being on the channel!
Should I be on diet ???
I'm afraid I can't give out any dieting advice. I'd recommend you speak to a professional dietician or medical professional about this ❤️
Sfdgf
Hi❤ thank you verry much for this workout!😊 i'm so much better in riding now. Thank you soooooooo much❤❤
You are so welcome and I'm delighted to hear it has helped you improve your riding! ❤️💪😊
I've just gotten back into riding after a long hiatus and I could barely get through a third of this routine, but I'm going to persevere! Thank you for the inspiration!
Welcome back in the saddle! 👏 This routine is tough for sure, but I love your commitment! 😊 If you need, there are other videos on the channel that would be good to work up to this one. Keep up the good work! 💪
day 1: got to the second static squat and couldn't go on 🥲
That's a great start! Keep chipping away at it and let me know how you go on day 10! 💪😊
I was about 18 minutes in when it really started kicking in! I’m a young beginner and I have lessons once a week. this workout was a true workout and I now know how my mom feels in her 45 minute long workouts.😢 thank you!
I will be updating tomorrow to see if I improved! :)
I'm glad you felt the burn 😉 Fitness is a long game and you likely won't feel much difference (other then being a bit sore perhaps?) tomorrow, but keep exercising consistently and you will over time notice a difference in your riding 😊 Let me know how you get on and good luck for your next lesson! 👍
I'm still struggling with the planks 🥲
It's a process - don't be too hard on yourself. Take it one step at a time and do easier versions until you feel strong enough to do the more difficult ones. You can do it! 💪😊
