💪 Back at It – Slowly but Surely! 💪

First full week back into the swing of things after some time off… 😅

Taught my usual fitness Pilates classes this week, and last night I jumped back into teaching a full hour of spin 🚴‍♀️

Let’s just say — it was tough, but also kind of brilliant.
The sweat was real, the legs were on fire, but that post-class feeling? Unmatched. 🔥

It reminded me that:
👉 Coming back after time off is never easy
👉 Your body might protest at first – that’s normal
👉 Progress is in showing up, even when it’s uncomfortable

No need to “go hard or go home” when you’re just getting back — just go. Move. Breathe. Start where you are.

🧠 Your body remembers. You just have to give it the chance to catch up.

I've not been very good at posting on social recently 🙈 I'll get back to it once I'm back from my travels.

For now I am switching on my out of office for 2 weeks. I'll get back to any messages when I'm back on 27th May

🐴 What about your horse's fitness? 🐎

Ready to start a fitness program for your horse? A healthy, well-conditioned horse is happier, stronger, and performs better – whether you're hitting the trails, the arena, or simply enjoying some bonding time. 🌟

Here’s how to get started:

1️⃣ Assess Current Fitness: Know your horse’s starting point! Try & gauge their current fitness level - remember we realistic, better to underestimate than over estimate

2️⃣ Start Slow: Begin with short, consistent sessions walking and start to incorporate more trot work. Gradually increase intensity over the weeks.

3️⃣ Incorporate Variety: Mix up hill work, ground poles, and arena exercises to build strength, balance, and endurance.

4️⃣ Rest & Recovery: Don’t skip rest days – they’re key to muscle repair and mental freshness!

💡 Pro Tip: Pay close attention to hydration and diet, too!
