I recently rode an Arabian gelding and I really loved riding him he was so much fun. one of the instructors wants me to ride him more regularly and get him in shape and try to get him a bit more resoponsive (he really likes to go). well the first think that I need to do to get him in shape is to give him a Butt. I mean he has no butt! lol its just not there. so I was wondering if anyone knows of any exersises I could do to give him a butt lol. I will try to put up some pics

Hill work and work over trot cavalletti are classic "hind end building" exercises.

i agree with kedwards about hill work.

just start by walking up and down hills then trotting up them when and canterine and stuff. even if you go on hacks with a lot of hills thatd b good!
