Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!&nbsp; <br /></p>http://forum.equisearch.com/forums/thread/322420.aspxWed, 20 May 2009 00:00:00 GMT6880bf40-d9e2-4dfd-9289-aa3cb40116d4:322420gerkensaj<p>&nbsp;I have a 7 year old mare that I am training H/J. She has an awesome trot, however when you do a sitting trot she drags her backend. My question is what can I do to help strengthen her back muscles? </p>
