Show Notes
Let’s be for real when was the last time you spent as much time (or money) on your own body as you do on your horse’s chiro, massage, and vet bills? 💅
In this episode, we’re sitting down with the queen of rider wellness, Dr. Kari, to talk about why your physical therapy era is actually the secret to leveling up your performance in the ring. We’re deep-diving into the "why" behind common positioning struggles and how your own biomechanics are basically the remote control for how your horse moves.
We’re breaking down those "why can't I just do it?" moments and how PT can fix the stuff your trainer keeps yelling at you about.
Dr. Kari calls us out on taking responsibility for your own fitness makes you a better partner for your horse (because they shouldn't have to carry our crookedness, tbh). No gatekeeping here! You’ll get actual tips you can add to your pre-ride routine so you’re not stiff as a board when you mount up.
If you’ve been feeling a little "off" in the saddle or you’re rready to optimize for your upcoming show season, this episode is your sign to start prioritizing you. Your horse (and your scores) will thank you. 🦄✨
