Subject to vetting I am now the very proud owner of a new horsey.
He has been turned away all winter but before that was sucessfully jumping 1m+ classes so was very fit.
He is now totally unfit and untoned. How do I go about fittening him up??
He is a bit on the 'slim' side so obioulsy don't want to work him too hard to start with as want him to put more weight on.
How many weeks of walking would you all suggest? (I haven't ridden on a regular basis for a few years so I need to get fit too!)
Then how to I then increase his workload? What should I be aiming for?
