Anyone know of any good lunging exercises to increase the engagement of the hindquarters in trot? I can find loads of websites that tell me the mechanics of lunging, but nothing useful on creative lunging exercises.

Have you tried using poles or raised poles on the ground whilst lunging? I find thats quite useful as my boy can get quite lazy with his back end. And it keeps lunging interesting!!

I bring mine onto a slightly smaler circle and then let them out again and ask for an upwards transition as I do. Seems to get my tb pushing more from behind.

I will try raised poles and those transitions tomorrow. I presume 4 poles at the 12, 3, 6 & 9 o'clock positions?
