Rider Fitness and Performance Suite

Many riders experience weaknesses within their bodies that manifest themselves in their riding ability. This can negatively impact the horse’s way of going.

Specialist sports science advice can help you with this, maximising your performance and providing you with a competitive edge.

Strength, flexibility and cardiovascular conditioning are vital for sporting success, and our Rider Fitness and Performance Suite can help with this.

Whether you are a student or an external client, you will be analysed without the influence and variables of the horse to develop skills that can be transferred when you are riding.

Specialist facilities include:

• Interactive dressage simulators
• Specialist sports fitness, strength and flexibility equipment
• Biomechanical analysis software
• Core stability testing and development equipment

We can also access University Centre Bishop Burton's dedicated Human Performance Laboratory if required to help you further.
