I'm a Marine veteran that's a little busted up, my wife is a lifelong horse rider. I am an incredibly risk adverse, plans and precautions kind of person, but I want to be able to go horseriding with her one day when it's a possibility. I appreciate this video, I'm trying to understand horse psychology better because the part I'm the most afraid of is my own ignorance and ineptitude. Liked & Subbed, glad to be here. Much love from Ft Worth.
These are such great tips. I absolutely love the stability exercises Emily. As a casual rider turning 67 years young soon, I need all the help I can get to be safer in the saddle. Would enjoy seeing more exercises to assist with this. Collaborative videos are very nice. 💕
Oh to have a younger body! 4yrs ago when I was going to get on a horse I wanted to try out to purchase, I was shock to discover I could not swing my leg over the cantle without a lot of struggle! I was 69 yrs. old back then. I had not been on a horse in several years. I did buy the horse who I discovered was on the spooky side and also liked to bolt, so we spent our time together doing ground work. One of my major concerns is I don't trust my body strength to stay on if he even thinks about doing something stupid. I will give these exercise a try. Wish me luck.
Me too! I've been doing strengthening exercises, like taking 2 stairs at a time, squats and lunges, bicep curls, upright rows, bicycling etc etc just to stay in shape so I'm strong enough to ride and handle the horses, and to prevent injuries...
@@calista1280 not just strengthening, need to do lots of slower stretching exercises to stop muscles getting tight and short. Strength and elasticity 😊
Emily’s stability and core muscles tips are great. I know someone who falls off her horses and it’s such an innocuous thing the horse has down, even broke her back. She has done this twice. Just goes to show that there is more to staying in the saddle.
Emily, this is the best clarification of what muscles I should be working on I’ve have come across. Using a barrel is ingenious , wish I had thought of that. I would love to see a more in-depth videos of exercises to strengthen the right muscles for riding - have you done one yet?
I had a video of exercises for riding, if I can find it after moving... Here's an older one to get started: czcams.com/video/nn6yoygYTjU/video.htmlsi=IEOO_hwuvL92WVM-
The timing of this video! 😮 have been preparing to take my boy out on the trail and now have so many things to add to my to do list, including realising I need to go back to basics a bit 🫣 Emily, those exercises are awesome!! Been doing yoga but to hear you break things down and understand more what I need as a rider is so amazingly helpful 🥰 Love a Ryan and Emily collab video!!! Thank you both! Feeling so motivated 🤠
This is such great advice. I have always briefly lunged my horse before I get on to check mood. But you offered lots of information and tips I can use. I have a mustang at the trainer that will be coming home in a few weeks. I will ride her before she comes home beforehand, but this advice is great for when she comes home.
I wish I could retain everything from your videos, but at least I can check the library for refreshers. And thank you to Emily, too-- I will practice those exercises!
Great video! My 4 year old horse is currently in training. His saddle arrived a few days ago and I sat in it and couldn't believe the pain in my hips! I'm 58 and parted with my last horse 29 years ago! So these exercises couldn't have come at a better time. I had to stretch out my hips to be able to side sit 😅. Will continue these exercises over the next 4 weeks before I get on my horse for the first time. Ryan's advice is also timely in my situation.
8/12/24 2:30 pdt I love learning from you two. I'm a dedicated patreon member and appreciate all your help. My horse responds nicely to requests to lower his head and flex when under halter but is resistant when asked from his bit (from the ground) . I do the preride check always but hit resistance with the head giving. Lambo gave so nicely.
This is one of the best videos I have seen about keeping ourselves safer on the rides. Ryan, you are tops, always pointing out the small details that matter the most. Emily, your exercises are exactly what I need to do - thank you both for this valuable video.
I love this channel and Ryan is such an Astonishing Horse Whisperer! He is also such a Lucky Man to be married to such a Beautiful Talented Horse Whisperer Emily! They make such a Dynamic Couple and all of us Horse Lovers are so lucky to have them give us these amazing tips!
I live in suburban Chicago at least here I will never be able to afford a horse so I occasionally take lessons and ride whenever I can, usually when traveling. I now know a few moves to try before mounting so I can learn a little about the horse. I’ve heard Ryan talk about riding “leg on, leg off”. I learned enough to apply pressure on my inside leg when turning but clearly there is so much more. Until Emily I thought that gripping tightly with my thighs and using some core balance was the way to stay on a horse. Emily, more please and suggestions from others are invited. Thank you.
I thought I would never be able to afford a horse also....but guess what. I just got my first horse last week. If you have some land it is affordable. Don't give up on your dreams. 😊
I swear i saw a bit of Sally Swift and Mary Wanless in your exercises, Emily 😊 you have the same wonderful ability to explain difficult concepts using easy imagery. In Germany I follow Sibylle Wiemer who is a great seat instructor.
Love the exercises with Emily to strengthen and increase flexibility of hips!! I will be 70 this month and want to increase flexibility as well as increase core strength.
I really enjoyed Emily & would enjoy seeing more. Btw, I’ve been watching your videos for a few years but also saw you guys at RTTH this year. Really enjoy your training. Keep it up!
Ryan and Emily thank you. Emily please more hip rotation and glutes tutorials. I followed your on-floor exercises and found I need to do more to stay stable on my horse. This was an eye opener from your professional viewpoint. Ryan, I do glean many pointers from your tutorials but it is nice to get pointers from Emily also.
Thanks Emily! (and Ryan) I would LOVE to see more videos from Emily about rider stability AND horse stability. I understand it might be a bit difficult to show horse mobility/stability stuff because each horse is very different but just some general exercises on the ground and in the saddle would be SUPER! My mare needs help with her topline (as many others do I'm sure!) so simple stuff that can be fun for the horse would be great.
Hi Ryan, I'm a big fan of your videos. I am 55 years old and bought my first horse two years ago. He is a gelding (AQH). He finds it very difficult to let go and relax. I would love to come by your place in Wisconsin with him and take lessons, but unfortunately I can't because I live in Germany. But I love your videos. I wish you and your wife much success. Greetings Matthias
I love your ride and guide exercise! That will be very useful for the 4 youngsters I'm starting under saddle this year. And the hip exercises are wonderful!
Very good and educational video about something so important: preparing the horse before a trail ride, and preparing the rider´s body before riding! More of this and more Emily please :) Best regards from Norway
The second part on the ground was so instructive thanks a lot, i'm gonna practice this with a medecine ball. I have almost a 6 packs but it doesn''t translate at all when I ride because I don't use them properly. More often than not it makes me stiff if I engage them .. I have started doing anckle stretching and I've gained some range of motion. It helps a bit to put my heels down. My hips are also not very flexible. Imagine a plank of wood, yeah that's me ! Would love to see more videos like this. Thanks to both or you
While I appreciate this information and many of Ryan's videos, Michael Gascon has been giving similar information on this same approach for quite a while already, and I personally find MG's approach easier to understand and utilize. He also instills a level of confidence by his approach that I didn't find here.
More Emily please!!!! 🙏 I am 53 with many limitations but I want to be able to work my horse from the ground and some day from the saddle, I sit in a chair or on my walker in the field with my 12 horses. Any type of exercise that would help me relearn to stand longer before having to sit would be great my back becomes weak and I can't stand.
I have one to add: make the right decision 😂 I got bucked off last month. Mustang mare, in heat, in water. Backed into the really deep water while going all emotional. I tried to ride her out of it. Big mistake I should have just done a side pull and hold her their until she calms down. Of course currently we don’t have that issue because she is not in heat, but we are still going in and out of water. The moment she gets to excited I do a side pull. Btw the way the water was warm and it was a warm summer day when I got dumped into the water.
Would really appreciate more strength exercises for riding. I have low back pain 4th and 5th vertebrae area... walking, lifting but also looking for strength and flexibility to ride.
I’m from northern Wisconsin where Lyme disease is a huge issue, both with people and horses. A lot of times, the poor horses were fine on the ground, but would come unhinged (because of pain) “ out of the blue” when being ridden. Wondering if Ryan has dealt with some of these horses?
Thank guys for this very informative video. Ryan tips here summarise a lot of information. A question for Emily, during the leg raising exercise do you actively engage the core muscles? Or they will engage passivly? Definitely more explanation would be very helpful.
Hi this is really aimed at your wife. I found those excersizes do interesting . I am 79 ridden all my life and have been complimented on my very tradition seat. It has been described as a classical position. How ever I am now struggling I had 1 hip replaced 21 June 24 and sadly I need the other one replacing. So no riding for me just watching with envy. However I am determined to get back on when I can. I was particularly interested in the muscel group that lays across the lower belly . As I have gotten older this area is now a un shrinkable bag. So is it more saggy muscel than fat. I am definitely going to give all those excersizes ago. But my right hip which need surgery is a bit to painful for all of them. I am a wee bit worried about being to strenuous as I would hate to make it any worse. However, I do need to rebuild my thigh muscel or I won't be able to take my body weight as I stand in 1 stirrup to allow my other leg to swing over. But that is also very informative regarding restarting an unpredictable horse . My horse is actually a very calm exracer is basically well behaved but can stop and snort. Like a huge straw bale stuck by mistake in the middle of our bridle path and ofcourse un ridden for a good almost 2 years. So a gentle warm up and a attitude tester would be the way forward. Maybe a few lunges with out tack but just reinforcing some ground rules would be the perfect approach. Thank you. I'm even considering joining your group 😁😅😉 I am quiet experienced ridden from the age of 12yrs had my first horse when I was 14yrs . Competed poorly unschool very ambitious bully of a father😝 . ❤ However, having bitterly not fulfilled my fathers ambitions I did go on about 15yrs later to ride as a civilians with a brilliant Army Sergeant. I competed and wonva few things Show jumping and cross country on ex race horses it was a blast but I am farmore sadat these days but still love to ride a horse with some energy it makes me feel young again. I have followed you a lot and I am basicslly up to speed with most if it but for you to address avoiding coming of is a great reminder as its one thing my surgeon had warned me against. So thank you again 😂😊
So many are using steps now because they feel "pulling" on your horse when mounting, is bad for them. I see you do the traditional mount. What are your thoughts?
You can't fall off the floor either. And you don't fall off a horse, you have unscheduled dismounts. Dead refrigerator boxes and billy goats are great challenges even with a well-trained horse.
Very nice. However, I always wish we could see some ideas about how to stay in the saddle when a well trained horse bucks unexpectedly ... instead of sending one to the hospital. Some advice in old books are to keep your elbows at your hip bones - no chicken wings - and keep your legs straight. If you see someone come off a. horse it is usually because they curl up in a defensive fetal position. Wrong. That causes you to bounce off. Heels down, head up, elbows at your hip bones. One piece of advice that might have saved me many painful weeks of recovery is - never try to get off a bucking horse. Anyone have some more tips?

Good Grief, that's so untrue.🤦🏻♀️ You think that just because they are calm and unstressed, so they can learn, as they are here for schooling! If they were worried & running around scared, would that make you happier?! These horses are in fine health, mentally, emotionally, and physically! They are super lucky to be with such empathetic & caring trainers who can help their owners understand and communicate better with them. They're turned out to play and even get to go on beautiful, wooded trails, too! 🥰

What a nice horse. Horses in real life never look that calm. Cool.
Isn't this real life ?
My horse does, at least to the left. Still working on his relaxation in the canter to the right.
If you have had replacements or have a corroding hip socket can you do these exercises?
So many are using steps now because they feel "pulling" on your horse when mounting, is bad for them. I see you do the traditional mount. What are your thoughts?
Can I ask Emily if she has her own CZcams channel? Also, what kind of certifications does she have, and how does one acquire them?
Links to Emily's content? Thanks!
Using a mounting block would seem to be a whole lot safer than bouncing around the side of the horse.
Wonder ? Do you have any tips for poor Olympic rider that fell off his horse while riding for the gold ?😮
I really don't understand why have the reins so loose. If you have a problem with that or any horse you have very little control?
He is a pretty boy!
You can't fall off the floor either. And you don't fall off a horse, you have unscheduled dismounts. Dead refrigerator boxes and billy goats are great challenges even with a well-trained horse.
Very nice. However, I always wish we could see some ideas about how to stay in the saddle when a well trained horse bucks unexpectedly ... instead of sending one to the hospital. Some advice in old books are to keep your elbows at your hip bones - no chicken wings - and keep your legs straight.

SOME ONE SAID YOU REALLY STAND ASTRIDE YOUR HORSE
To NEVER fall off again? Stop riding!
😂
That is the most effective way but for most it is not the best way.
The best way to not fall off ... don't get on ... lol
LOL.
HAHAHAHAHA
Nice session , but I cannot really follow your wife. We must ground handle horse mainly
