Hi
I don't have a particularly big frame, and don't have much muscle either. I have recently realised how much this affects my position and riding overall, after riding a horse that was extremely hard work to canter and meant that I would fall onto his neck afterwards because I just couldn't hold myself after it all!
I really want my riding to improve, and to do this I need to strengthen my core muscles and those that I use for riding. I can do plank etc, but can't do sit ups!
Has anyone experienced this problem and got helpful, easy to follow exercises or sports that help?
I know practise makes perfect, but the problem is I don't have a horse to practise on...
All help would be appreciated!
Thanks
