this video has done wonders for me i get so nervous and i just realized i dont breath i forget to breath and kinda blackout and forget my whole run i have a rodeo in a couple hours and i am so happy i watched this thank you so much!!!!!!!!
You probably won't see this but my problem is the speed. I am afraid of going too fast. I don't know how to fix it. Btw I love you so much your an inspiration.
Usually when there is fear in speed you just need to practice it more and know how to stay balanced:) I will link a video that I think will help. As always don't be afraid to run your horse around the arena for a couple of laps and just focus on relaxing your body. Know that it will take time but it will come! ua-cam.com/video/hBdgXrNXBfQ/v-deo.html Let me know if you have any other questions. -Breanna
Wow! I thought I was the only one that wouldn’t eat when I was at a rodeo 😂 my mom would freak out bc I actually wouldn’t eat the whole week before a rodeo and my mom hated it!
Thanks so much! I don't eat either until after I run. I used to get nervous and throw up but luckly I have out grown that but I still get nervous easily
My daughter is 13 has been riding since 6 and rodeoing since 7 running barrels and poles and has made hundred of runs but she still gets nervous. I still stay in alleyway with her to help her relax and check her tack and tell her her run is not that big of deal. I learned early on if I told her we need a good run for a check or buckle she would mess up but when I would act like it wasn't a big deal she would do better. She doesn't like the competition but just goes in and makes her run quiet and calm.
Your exactly right! Most people don’t go in there and say I have to win this... you have to just go in there and remind your self how to ride and smooth is fast and pays off:) -Breanna
I messaged you on TikTok about this. I absolutely hate bothering my trainer. I live in North Texas. Like in the same town as that person who sells your saddle sack. You never know who’s going to be where you’re at. I’ve had been inches away from NFR qualifiers watching my futurity horse exhibition. Now I have a horse that’s broke and more my speed while the other one is doing her furturity stuff with my trainer but I want to be both of their full time jockey eventually. This is beyond nerve wrecking and it doesn’t help that by virtue of being born where I was born I live in the same area of so many great barrel racers. I’m going to try these tips this weekend when I exhibition this weekend.
I used to hit all three every time, so I worked on not hitting the first barrel, and when I got that down, I started working on not hitting the second barrel consistently. That’s where I’m at right now
This helped a lot! Sunday is my first rodeo and I'm so nervous for it! I try to practice as much as possible, but my grandparents own the horses so I only get to ride once a week. If you have any advice pls let me know!
Omg Thank you so much I am having first race chitters bc my run is tm and this helps so much! Bc even tho this is a local show it still has over 300 ppl running and alot of ppl ik! I am still so nervous but this helps alot!
Thank you for the advice it was very helpful I just got up enough nerve to race again and I went to my first rodeo in 20 years . I ended up leaving and another chick ran my spot with my money. I’m humiliated. But I’m going to try again this weekend thanks
Yesterday was my first day of practicing barrels a little faster than I used to do, to get more comfortable with the speed. And it was a complete disaster ... I was so focused on speed that I completely forgot what I had to do ... I get so nervous when I'm about to run. And when I finish the race and especially when it wasn’t a good run, I feel more nervous than ever ... I loved your video and today I will try to put your advice into practice. I really think that they will help me a lot. Thank you very much.
May Curt glad you enjoyed! Your so welcome! I was a little slow to get it up because of some things that happened so I’m sure I kept y’all in way to much suspense
Your so welcome! Yeah I’ll have to ad that to the list:) all you have to do though is go to your state high school rodeo website, find the club closest to you, contact them and they will give you all the information to get signed up:) does that help?
i dont know if you will see this or no but i get really nervouse and nausis (sorry cant spell) but im not really sure what im so nervouse about i will get nervouse weeks before this helped a lot do you have any tips if your riding a horse your not super familiar with? and cant ride that often before hand?
Tommrow is my first rodeo and I'm running a haflinger cross arabin and people doubted me and her that we would never get there that she would never be able to run
@@Lauren-hc3ck it was ok but my horse wanted to go go go I have another one this Friday I'll probably let the beast loose cause of her nick name beast pony
beauty as you kno it~ Not all runs will be the best. I’ve learned that from experience. My horse (Buzz) hit the second barrel and spooked. But i made him re-do the run. And it was smooth sailing after that! :) Don’t get mad at your horse PLEASE!!! At my rodeos there are some kids who messed up the run and it can be there fault or it’s the horses but either way they blame the horse, that’s so not fair to the poor horse, and they will wip,kick,and yell at their horse like it was only their fault! That makes me so dam mad. So please don’t do what they do. I wish you the best of luck! After the run weather you messed up or not tell your horse they did good and tried there best. Don’t tell your horse good boy/girl if they did not listen to a single order you asked. But beside that, pat your horse tell them they did amazing! And when you walk out of that arena tell yourself you did the best you could. 😁🥳🥳❤️❤️🐴
I am having an issue with Fear of pushing my speed after an accident that fractured my back. This did not happen barrel racing and on a different horse. I trust my barrel horse 100%, but when it is time to run, my mind gets blocked. How can I get past this? It is do frustrating for me and my horse! She wants to go so bad and I pull her up and she gets so angry at me! PLEASE HELP!
I always freeze going to first and don’t push as hard as I need to or don’t check up my horse and we end up taking a trip to Mexico 😂. Then I get everything back and 2nd and 3rd are always perfect. Any tips for this?
This video will have some great tips mentally to help you stay perfect but let me send you a couple of videos to help you as far as riding goes:) -Breanna
Utahbarrelracer ! Yes but I still struggle with it but I haven't even started barrel racing yet it took long enough for me to learn to lope and that wasn't that long enough
@@adelaidecross9051 I'm sorry that video didn't help. It is important to note everything take time and work just like riding and confidence. Let me send you a link to a book that might help:) amzn.to/2C6rDEC
Great video. Such good advise. I use to downhill ski race and I wish someone would have said exactly this to me. Side note, kind of off topic but I’d love to know how you learned to drive a horse trailer. How did you learn to back up? It makes me so nervous I make my husband do it which means I’m super limited by when he’s available.
I’m glad you enjoyed! That’s so cool you did downhill skiing! That scares me haha! I went snowboarding for the first time this year and it was quite the learning curve. I have been driving a trailer for quite a few years. It was kind of a necessity for everything that I’ve done. Best thing you can do is just practice and even find an open space to do that for a while as well. You’ll get it!!❤️
I’m always nervous at rodeos because my friend was killed in a freak accident at a rodeo. Her horse spooked and flipped back on top of her. I’m scared that my horse might slip or rear up and flip over. But it’s only at a rodeo. I’m ALL FOR riding a bucking horse at home and practice, and I’ll go and make a GORGEOUS run at practice. It’s just I’m scared when it’s like 10 people away. Then in the alleyway I’m also nervous. But as soon as my trainer lets me go, I’m completely fine.
i’m just now starting at 52 but so excited and with a lot of your videos
Aww I am so excited for you!
this video has done wonders for me i get so nervous and i just realized i dont breath i forget to breath and kinda blackout and forget my whole run i have a rodeo in a couple hours and i am so happy i watched this thank you so much!!!!!!!!
