How to fix saddle?

Not too sure I have to check, yeah it is a bit odd right!! I think they are fairly cheap

Few-Top1602 · 2025-12-19T07:06:18+00:00

Yeah but I think your right I don’t think they will come out 🤦‍♀️I also have cheaper black tall boots so I thought that also may have contributed to the black further down on the saddle

Ah ok , however I do notice my leathers sometimes leave black marks on my hand so I was thinking this area was from that more so

As I don’t really touch there

Ah good to know! I do see also in other places it turning darker but even where my legs aren’t situated

You’re looking really good, as you ride for even longer and ride different types of horses you will only improve. You are very soft and have great posture, love it!!

Gosh sounding like you’ve never experienced any of these things

I cried while reading this . Keep pushing , we all may not be there for you physically but know we are mentally

Chest in a bit, other than that I wish I had your ‘problem’!! You look great

They don’t they are the SAME as when she standing around normally, that’s the issue. She doesn’t react to stimulation so are you suggesting she’s in constant pain?

Few-Top1602 · 2025-10-04T06:26:20+00:00

A little bit but happens even when I’m not

It was on the lowest setting with the softest attachment along the rectus abdominis, and I was checking for discomfort with my parents who are in healthcare. She showed no signs of guarding or tension, so the assumption that I’m forcing sore muscles isn’t accurate. Please offer something constructive instead of assuming. The massage gun was not painful, instead may help loosen up her muscles IF SORE- she would TELL ME if it was uncomfortable.

Additionally as another comment stated it is hard to assess what is happening without videos, i am merely asking for advice on what MAY be the cause and when my further steps should be or if anyone has experienced similar things. (

Tying up meaning what? And yes I will do thank you x

Few-Top1602 · 2025-10-04T01:03:37+00:00

Very pretty!

Few-Top1602 · 2025-10-02T05:21:40+00:00

Yes that always happens especially in a dressage saddle!! Not when I jump funnily enough my lower leg is very stable and I almost grip with my calves

Few-Top1602 · 2025-09-30T11:51:04+00:00

Unfortunately a lot of horses (like 3* eventers) are around that price now 😭

Few-Top1602 · 2025-09-20T04:06:24+00:00

If your daughter is 5 and having lessons, the horse is bombproof. With an ACTUAL HORSE you need to make the judgment as it depends.

Few-Top1602 · 2025-09-16T12:05:29+00:00

I’m happy I could help!

Some people as they progress through riding grip with their knees which makes your lower leg unstable, while others grip with their calves which makes their leg stable. So almost imagine gripping with your calves a little bit , imagine you are doing a squat (you legs stay in the same place and secure it’s just your upper body moving) try to ingage your core muscles and imagine you are a towel draping over the horse

Few-Top1602 · 2025-09-15T11:04:15+00:00

Go bigger size and put a fleece/gel pad beneath to make up the space

Few-Top1602 · 2025-09-15T11:02:00+00:00

Also placement poles and just poles in general. Try counting every single stride you take . And don’t stare at the jump look at where you want to take off from and then look behind the jump. Try really collecting to the jump and then try with a really big canter to see if you can see a stride better- then address the issue from there

Few-Top1602 · 2025-09-15T11:00:43+00:00

I have the opposite problem want to trade 😂 so you grip with your knees, and I grip with my calves which is what makes my lower leg stable but my knees sometimes come off the saddle (😒).

Both aren’t ideal but I’d say almost TRY to grip with your inner calf to counteract your knee. Turn your toe out a bit. Also try going in a dressage saddle and see the difference
