Here's the Latest on Equine Exercise Training
Equine exercise physiology has had major scientific advances over the
years due to the availability of high-speed treadmills and techniques
for evaluating body function during exercise. Despite these advances,
many trainers and owners are still using little more than past
experience and intuition to train their horses.
This book sorts fact from fiction for those involved in training and gives
up-to-date information on the latest scientific training techniques.
Covers: biochemical and physiological basics, including fuels for exercise;
exercise and training response, including stress and fatigue; exercise testing
and training techniques; drugs and performance; feeding and nutrition.
Scientific theories are provided in easily understood terms. |
