Here is a fab picture of on the forehand. I can post it without offending anyone because it is one of my horses. This horse had massive balance/cadence problems when I bought her, she could only go in an inverted position and we had to use some very unorthodox methods to change her way of going. She is also built like a boat so nothing comes easily.
The point I was trying to make was that so many riders consider on the forehand to be the normal way of going for their horse, are used to having a brick in each hand when they ride and no lateral movement or stepping under from behind. Horses ridden in this manner for years will often have forelimb and feet issues.
