The Science of Equestrian Sports is a comprehensive study of the
theory and practice of the rider in equine sport. While most
scholarship to date has focused on the horse in competition, this
is the first book to collate current data relating specifically to
riders. It provides valuable insight into improving sporting
performance and maintaining the safety of both the horse and the
rider. Drawing on the latest scientific research, and covering a
wide range of equestrian disciplines from horseracing to eventing,
the book systematically explores core subjects such as: physiology
of the rider sport psychology in equestrian sport preventing injury
biomechanics and kinematics coaching equestrian sport the nature of
horse-rider relationships This holistic and scientific examination
of the role of the horse rider is essential reading for sport
science students with an interest in equestrian sport and
equitation. Furthermore, it will be an invaluable resource for
instructors, coaches, sport psychologists, or physiologists working
with equestrian athletes.
