I've seen this in the tack shop then caught that team Fredericks program and was reminded of it!

Im looking to use it just to help improve my horses muscle tone, Just wondering if anyones used it and opinions good/bad! I only plan to lunge in it, dont really like the idea of riding in it..

Thank you!

I think they are good. Not sure if I've used the libby's one but a yard I worked at used to use bungie training aids a lot and they were very good.
 
I don't know, but just wanted to say that I hope you get some infromed replies because I have been wondering about it to! When I'm just lunging (which isn't often these days) I use a pessoa, but I was wondering if the Lungie Bungie might be better for those times when I need to pop her on the lunge before riding at a strange place since I think it can be used with a saddle

The Libby's one is different from a normal bungie cord in that when fitted looks rather more like side reins than draw reins.

I have a Libby's lungie bungie stuffed in the tack trunk somewhere, think I have used it about 3 times. I much prefer the pessoa as I find it makes the horse work from behind and over his/her back more which is what develops the topline.

When it comes to lunging at a strange place before riding if you have some side reins use them instead of spending more money on the lungie bungie IMO.
 
ive got a normal lungie bungie and i love it-my pony has a habit of shortening his neck and poking his nose up and as a result looked upside down muscle wise. i ride in mine about 4 times a week. i attatch it over the head therough the bit and between the legs on the girth. it doesnt pin the head in, infact it encourages them to lengthen the neck and work round, i found i had to use a little more leg to ensure he was using his back up too, but in invaluable piece of kit im my opinion.
 
I have a Libby's Lungie Bungie and it is good as the horses can't be as "fixed" as they sometimes can with side reins- I have to say though that I haven't used it a great deal! - (My own preference is the Pessoa)-
and yes you can use the Lungie Bungie when riding.
