Getting Horses Fit by Sarah Pilliner
To enable a competition horse to give its best performance it is essential to provide the horse with a combination of correct feeding and exercise. The aim of this work is to explain in simple terms the changes that take place in the horse's body during exercise and training; this knowledge can then be used to devise suitable training programmes for disciplines as diverse as long distance riding and three day eventing. This text should be useful for horse owners, where the new edition has been generally updated and includes results of the most recent exercise physiology research.
Sarah Pilliner combines an academic background with extensive practical knowledge as a horse owner, competition rider and equine consultant. A former lecturer in nutrition and exercise physiology at Myerscough College and Warwickshire College, she is the author of Getting Horses Fit and co-author of Breeding the Competition Horse, Horse Care, The Equine Athlete and Equine Science, Health and Performance.
