...No not men! The good looking love in my life at the moment, my TBX is able to be ridden again after having a month off from injury. Since xmas I hvae been getting him gorgeously fit with circuits, hill gallops, hacks, schooling, lunging EVERYTHING then an injury has had us twiddlng our thumbs for a month while he got better.

His muscle has all gone and i would love some tips on how to fitten him up gradually as of tomorrow... x x x

I've read some where that it takes 2/3 weeks for horses to loose fitness, so hopefully if your start again slowly and build up like you did after xmas (but it wont take so long) you will have him fit again in no time. My YO's horse was on box/yard rest for 3 1/2 weeks following an injury, she lost all muscle definition and condition, basically she looked crap, anyway shes been back in work now for 2 1/2 weeks and looks like she did before injured, her fitness and stamina are returning very quickly aswell.
