We’ve teamed up with Dee from Dynamic Sports Performance to bring you a Rider Performance Challenge, to help you become fitter and stronger in the saddle. No matter which discipline, rider strength and conditioning play a huge part in performance.

Combining both her human and equine knowledge, Dee specialises in soft tissue therapy and performance for both the horse and rider. She works with some of the best horses, riders and trainers in the world. Dee’s understanding of the sport and what is required of both horse and rider at the highest of levels enables her to aid optimal athletic performance for both individual athletes and together as a combination. You can find out more about Dee and her work here.

These videos demonstrate how to do all the exercises for the fitness challenge.
