I was wondering if anyone else had these concerns....while riding, my instructor gives me good feedback, and tells me i'm lookin good up there and all that. and my boyfriend or whoever else is there watching me says i look good up there. but i feel like my legs are not firm enough. i feel like they're flopping all over the place, especially my lower leg. i don't "cling like a wet cloth."
sometimes i also kind of feel like i have "spaghetti arms" but i'm better about that.
so what are some ways to have a better leg position, should i do thigh and calve exersizes when working out to make them stronger, or are there stretches or something i can do?
another thing is i often loose my stirrups when i'm doing something like asking for a canter. should i push down deeper with my heels or what?
any suggestions?
