Let's Discuss Rider Weight

Following a recent social media post, EquiTeam's Liz Daniels is joined by equine and human physiotherapist Maeve Sheridan, creator of 'Activate your Seat' and EquiTeam member Carolyn Macdonald, previous podcast guest of 'how getting fit and losing four stone changed my life'. After talking about the rider/horse weight ratio at an educational day Maeve was inspired to weigh herself in her riding clothes whilst carrying her tack and was so surprised by the findings that she shared her numbers on social media as an educational post. The post attracted both positive and negative comments and so we wanted to discuss the topic further to find out more.
