Tension in your hips has a direct influence on your seat and your ability to follow the horse’s movement effectively. Your core muscles have a harder time firing when there is restriction in your hips.
This can show up as:
🔹a hard time sitting the trot
🔹bouncing in the trot
🔹being left behind in the movement
🔹ineffective half halts
🔹lower back pain
🔹hard time keeping your position straight
Do you experience any of these when you ride?
