Kevin McNab (Event Rider) - “If you want to compete at the very top of your chosen sport rider fitness is key. I ride so many horses each day and am always on the go so am very fortunate that I keep fit quite naturally but I would definitely recommend classes such as yoga and pilates for stretching and maintaining suppleness. We all work so hard on keeping our horses fit and well so it is important not to forget ourselves.” (Supported by Avant)

Laura Robinson (Showjumper) - “I am extremely health conscious and make sure I have a balanced diet to provide the correct energy levels. I ride and train up to eight horses everyday as well as jobs around the yard which help keep me fit.” (Supported by Equithèmes).

Beverley Brightman (Dressage Rider) - “Having broken my back in an eventing accident 20 years ago, my exercise regime has to take this into account. I start every morning, whether in the horse box or at home, with a half hour stretching and a pilates routine set for me by my physio and equi-pilates instructor to strengthen my core. For the rest of the day, riding and running my yard is enough extra exercise for me!”
