I am starting to bring my horse back into work after 6 months off. The first 6 weeks were spent on box rest after removing some chipped bone fragments, however the rest of the time he has just been out in the field, as there was no point getting him up and running with nothing going on in lockdown! Before his time off he was at peak hunting fitness.
I'm now getting him fit again for the second half of the eventing season at BE Novice level. As this is the longest time he's ever had off, I'm interested to hear other people's opinions on how many weeks should be spent walking and the length of rides etc, before introducing trot/canter? TIA
