Effective horse trainers strive to improve the performance of their
horses while preserving the integrity of the musculoskeletal
apparatus. Biomechanics and Physical Training of the Horse supplies
an anatomical and functional overview of the topic, enabling
trainers to optimize the different exercises their horses undergo
during training and competition. Following a brief description of
the biomechanics of the muscles underlying equine movement, the
book discusses the muscles of the forelimb, hindlimb, and neck and
trunk. These fundamentals have direct bearing on the later
chapters, which focus on training and the core exercises for a
horse. This text is illustrated throughout by the author's
top-quality photographs, diagrams, and his own beautiful anatomical
drawings. The book is of lasting value to all professionals and
well-informed amateurs who work with horses: veterinarians,
trainers and riders, researchers, physical therapists, and
educators in equine courses.
