BEGINNER NOV:
Regular work 6 days/week
Can also add hacks either pre or post ride most days
NOVICE
15 min trot every 4th day for 2 weeks, moving upto 20 min trot every 4th day for 2 weeks
Canter work - Start with 20 min trot, then 3 x 2min canters seperated by 2 min walks with a long walk to cool down, every 4th day for 2 weeks
Add 1 min of canter to the sets for the next month until you have performed 2 weeks of 3 x 4min canter sets
TRAINING
Same as above, but add an extra minute until your horse is comfortably doing 3x 5 min canters
PRELIMINARY
Same as above but now also adding in Hillwork. This is quite variable depending on the hill. Ask a professional for advice and err on the side of caution rather than running your horse too hard too fast.
Good luck

Thank you for the nice feedback. We REALLY appreciate it
My showjumping/dressage ponies routine Monday: lunged .Tuesday : 45 mins schooling.Wednesday: 45mins schooling Thursday: day off .Friday : jumping .Saturday : intense hack with my friend (4mile circuit trot canter gallop with small intervals of walk .Sunday: 25 mins schooling then 1 1/2 mile walk hack .Please don’t say any of this is in correct as mike hallows has helped me create this along with his wife and daughter. On a sat or sun I go to a show but not every week
You are by far the best in explaining and covering the details in the most entertaining way! Thanks for awesome videos!
LOVE this one, especially the intro! Very helpful!! If I had a horse of my own I would be ALL over that winter training program. But for now, this is very, very helpful for the kind of work I should be doing with the horses I'm catch riding! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for showing this video! I have my first event tomorrow, and I tried the topics you gave, and it has worked so well! My pony has gotten a lot better into shape! Thank you so much! I love these videos! I wish I lived closer to Aiken!
The intro though... lol
you guys always have the best intros! lol! love your videos. you guys have some really beutiful horses too! ☺
I was just thinking this was one you guys needed to post! You guys are the best :)
Thanks for doing these videos.. You always have great topics, and your tips are extremely helpful! Your winter training program sounds like a great idea, if I lived closer to Aiken I would love to do it! Thanks again for making such awesome videos
keeep posting, I love these and I would love you guys to post a video with a tour barn and a bit of you two riding with with you horses, that would be awesome !
Love all ur videos
This is just what I was looking for! Great video. Here in Quebec, eventing isn't very popular. So.. that's why there's not a lot of event coach. Next show season I was planning to start jumper and eventing in Ontario with my mare but I did not know how to organize a training plan. I'm lucky, on your videos I found everything I needed. Thank yoooou! And keep posting please!!
BTW: Sorry for my English! I'm french :-)
This is so helpful!
Love this video you guys are hilarious!

Thank you so much for creating this videos! They are incredibly helpful and also very entertaining! You're doing great, keep it up! And by the way, yous are an absolutely cute couple! ;)
Could you do a video on reconditioning your horse who is out of shape
Can you do a video on how you groom your horseand what you use? Your horses always look so clean and comfortable!! x
I think they did it
Haha love the intro!
2019 anyone?
this helped, but i go on a saturday to a big hill with hard ground and i canter him the cross country canter, and i do this every saturday or sunday, this depends on what i do on the friday, thanks xx
Jimmie has such a great body figure 😭
My sister loves eventing but works FIFO, so she employs me to get her horse ready for when she gets back. Said horse is an 18h, Trakehner x TB that HATES trotting at the best of times. -_- He's also inclined to canter very slowly and more up and down than forward. She wonders why I prefer SJing!! He's finally almost at Novice fitness by the sounds of it. Wish me luck!? =/ Hopefully this information helps!!
We're pretty lucky cause we have a race track (trotting track so is smaller and sand footing) a 10 min drive from us we can use for only $5, thats really good for interval training, tho will be interesting to see what my ottb does there :P
HAHA the best start clip
is the winter program still going?
2018 anyone???
That intro 😂😂
This will be good after spring... My horse is sooo fat after spring grass, no matter how much I use the jenny Craig paddock! XD
I have an OTTB who is very good and a very good jumper. She doesnt rush jumps, but lands in a full gallop even when starting the jump in a trot over very small jumps (18 inches or so) she can jump 4+ ft, but not safely because of the galloping. Also when i ask her to canter she takes a few gallop strides before slowing into her beautiful working canter. any tips???
How to rate a horses blood count, coming out next month plus 25 fitness documentaries to rate percentages of fitness, cheers Jim
How do u condition your horse for races. if you only go up 3 days a week?
Can somebody please tell me what kind of jacket the gal is wearing in this video? It looks like it has a lot of pockets in just the right places! Thanks!

how do you sit well doing canter bareback please help :)
TheBlondeEquestrian I know I’m not a professional but I went to an Alycia Burton clinic once and she said to relax rather than tensing and absorb the impact with the thigh. It really helps a lot! (As a high-withered thoroughbred owner, trust me haha 😂) hope this helps!
Can someone give me specific details on how to condition a Andalusian/Lusitano for Eventing? He is a big horse and has big controlled strides but gets tired very easily and can't keep up with the other horses. I know he has potential because when we train with the other more experienced horses and riders they are always spooking, refusing and failing jumps, while he doesn't spook at all, he never refuses and clears the jumps like they were not even there. He is a natural at show jumping and dressage but I really need to work on cross country with him because he gets tired so easily. What I do now is gallop up and down a steep hill behind the stables I work at and that seems to be working but I worry for his joints. Honestly, if anyone can help me condition this horse I would be so grateful! He was so expensive but I just had to get him because he is an angel!
Not sure if you found a way to, but here’s what I do for conditioning. I make a few trainings in the usual week about trotting, then work with a lot of grid work. Walking up trails/hills really helps of leg/back strength and stamina. Plus taking in consideration the videos guide lines.
can your horse get well fit in just two weeks? cause I have rodeos coming up in may and my horses still have all their winter fat on.
Can you get ready for a marathon or a UFC fight in two weeks?
sorry, but the slapping was funny
okay lol but work on your fake slaps! :)
