GOOD RIDING POSITION HACK

[butedbcky]

Just make sure you don’t arch your back/butt out too much, you want to press your hip forward for best possible balance

I already arch/hollow my back too much. Careful with this hack, guys.

I’m a PT and I’m just saying that there’s some misinformation here. Good posture means having a neutral spine and mobile hips.

This drill puts your hips into anterior tilt instead of posterior which’ll lead to a lot of lower back issues in the long run. You don’t need to arch your back to have good posture.

A better version of this would be what Jara Dostal mentioned, which is putting the whip in the crook of your elbow in front of your torso.

I’ve explained this pretty briefly so if you have any questions feel free to ask.

My trainer has done that to me before. But another trick she would do is having me rest the wip on my arms in front of me. technically balancing it, to try to keep my hans up, straight and quiter. It is super hard, but totally possible. It's somewhat hard to explain but yes I love that trick and it totally makes my posture better.😄I used to rest my hands on the withers of my horse, now I don't but thats the point. I have a little pony named Blueberry, she is a quarter horse percheron mix. Lol she is also a blue roan. Have a graet day (sorry it was so long)

Don't arch your back too much. I also do this (working on it) and I almost hurt my back very badly when my horse suddenly thought she was usain bolt.

[gracevalleyequestrian]

Ooo thank you for the amazing trick! Defined will try

[lightupmyneondreams]

my issue with this demo is the rider is wayyyy too arched and won’t be able to use her seat at all/it gives the impression over arching is correct position

[josipbakalar]

I learn so much from you yt ty so much❤

[josealdana]

I see! Yes! Your posture looks fabulous!

[Alfie-theirishsportshorse]

I will try it on Saturday for my riding lesson and I love your videos gee and black jack are my fav

[mistren]

Years ago did this exercise a lot....eventualy it made me over-curve my lower back and tilt my hips the wrong way (just like the girl on the video btw) 😔. Still working on correcting this. 😔

Please only do this when you realy need to, and for a short periode.

This was a threat from my trainer when I wouldn’t put my shoulders back lol

[Sweetism]

God ur so pretty! U look amazing! Keep doing wha u love!

[Mayflower-sodq]

I don't own a whip because I just have a feeling that it's just annoying to the horse and the horses actually don't like it and it can actually cause hair loss if you whip in the same area of the thigh every time

[janeregan]

Thanks for the tip, will have to try this
