Did you know there are exercises you can do at home to help maintain muscle memory and strength for adaptive riding?

Here’s one that is good practice for posting the trot. We call it ‘Wall Posting’:

• Stand against a smooth wall with the back of your head, your shoulders, seat and heels against the wall. Your feet should be slightly more than hip width apart.
• Slowly slide down the wall until your thighs are at about a 45 degree angle.
• Slowly slide back up the wall. On the way up, your hips should come away from the wall.

That’s Wall Posting—the slower you ‘post’, the harder your muscles will work. Give it a try!
