RodeoCowgirl4u - 2014-01-07 9:21 PM We have a track here but it's pretty deep so I don't breeze on the track a lot. I do lots of trail riding and up/down hills to build stamina and the hindquarters. Here it has been 80 degrees during the day and 30 at night so I have to be sure to give electrolytes. If I do breeze them its only for a quarter of a mile or I slow lope one of the trails around here. The vet told me that long trotting my teenaged horse was actually detrimental to her joints and to keep her collected and lope instead. I only trot to get her loose before a work-out.
