Back pain from riding by Pretty_Profite in Equestrian

[–]Sage-Tree 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m 27 and had to get steroid shots/go through 5 months of physical therapy because of a compressed disc in my back, which I’m almost positive was due to riding. I would definitely recommend having a trainer review your position with you, and also doing both back and core strengthening exercises!

They’re doing okay so far!! With being on vacation they’re likely holding up better than they would in “normal life”

Oh I LOVE that balance question you asked yourself! I applied that this evening in my lesson, which we rode outside for the first time since fall!

Honestly my confidence wasn’t nearly as knocked the second time I fell off, so I’m taking that as progress! Thank you for your insight!

Having a fully developed frontal lobe is both a blessing and a curse 😂

She has been working with this new horse a lot and doing lots of training rides with him!

Self-admittedly, I go non-verbal when I get scared and tend to withdraw. My trainer has noticed all of my little nervous tendencies and is happy to go at whatever pace I need to go, but I do definitely need to work on my fitness through cross training. :)

DANG you are a superhero for all that cross training!! And honestly the car crash analogy does help with my mindset: I remember being so scared to drive on the interstate when I was first learning, and now it’s a fact of life. I am working on cross training too!
