Ep. 28: Feeding Performance Horses in the Summer

  • Résumé

  • Maintaining optimal weight and peak performance in horses, especially those used for high-intensity athletic activities, can be a delicate and ongoing challenge for even the most experienced equestrian. Throughout the various seasons and demands of the competition calendar, a horse's nutritional and exercise needs are in constant flux, requiring vigilant monitoring and adjustment to ensure they retain their competitive edge. Factors like changes in training load, seasonal shifts in forage quality, and the stresses of travel and competition can all contribute to weight loss and performance deficits. It can be difficult to strike the perfect balance. Even when a horse is maintaining their weight, these stressors can lead to subtle changes in muscle tone, energy levels, and overall attitude that impact performance.

    In this episode we discuss these factors and others that may contribute to loss of weight and performance in our competition horses and share steps you can take to keep your equine athlete in top form.
