Tried out a dressage saddle today. It been about 5 years since I've used one. My back and hips ache!! Is that normal!? Or perhaps it was a morning of clipping that did it!

If you normally ride in a GP / jump saddle in a chair position, you will probably find it a strange sensation and use muscles in a different way when put into a dressage saddle and nearer the ear / hip / heel alignment. Or it could be that the saddle doesn't suit you. Or it could be the clipping!
