3/17/2023 1 Comment Week 4: Progress and Lessons This week I and Marty had one of our best lessons yet with one of our trainers, Melody. We worked on jumping gymnastics, which makes a horse use all of its muscles and also makes them think about what they are doing. Different gymnastics are set up in a specific way to help strengthen a horse's different muscles and can also help them become more flexible. We did lots of bending lines which helped him stretch out more and use different muscles. I was impressed with Marty during our lesson. Not only was he trying to figure out how to do the gymnastics, but he was also moving forward and we also had some very nice simple changes.
