Ahhhhhhh. Now I understand about half-halting with your core and not with your hands. Wow Flash gets excited when he’s jumping.
I feel like I’ve done 90 minutes of crunches whilst having Jillian Michaels next to me, barking at me “don’t phone it in!”. LOL.
First jump in the lesson was fine but after that he wanted to show me that he can compete with small ponies who are bombing it round a course. So every approach to every jump we did after that was me sitting deep and bracing to hold back a 600kg rocket with my poor abdominal muscles.
He loves his job so very, very much. And I love him for it. Unfortunately for him it’s back to Flatwork this week because I’m doing the dressage on Monday!
