When Peak Performance Counts

Cavalor Peak Performance improves mobility and performance in sport horses by stimulating blood circulation and boosting lymphatic system function. 
The supplement is a balanced blend of essential oils and herbal extracts that improve the horse’s alertness and performance. The natural ingredients promote the efficient transport of oxygen through the bloodstream and ensure that toxins are quickly eliminated by the lymphatic system. The result is more energy and faster recovery times. This focus on the lymphatic system makes Cavalor Peak Performance an innovative way to improve a horse’s general condition and stamina and fight fatigue. It also ensures good health, as the lymphatic system is also an important component of the immune system. 
Cavalor Peak Performance is the ideal supplement for high performance horses.
A fit horse has sufficient stamina, a strong, supple body and is energetic – qualities that are essential for training and competition.
It is important to make sure that your horse takes in energy corresponding to its needs. Provide sufficient concentrate feed if your horse is in hard work, but no more than necessary. Moreover, do not confuse energy with stamina or temperament. A horse that is exhausted after just fifteen minutes does not have stamina. And “hot” horses can also have too little energy.
If your horse is suddenly tiring much faster or seeming less active then look for what may be the cause.

Excellence in the dressage arena from Fleck

Excellence in the dressage arena from Fleck

All dressage riders need a little back up to their seat and leg aids when teaching a horse the more advanced movements. A soft touch is what is needed and what better brand to look for the perfect schooling aid than leading German whip manufacturers Fleck.

Their new ErgoBalance Impuls! Dressage Whip range has perfect style, balance and handling. Carl Hester is a big fan of the whips using the Impuls! Solid whip for teaching his horses to shorten their steps - leading to the start of piaffe. This whip has a solid shaft which is ideal for touching the horse without any risk of additional movement through the length of it. This is preferred by Carl Hester’s training methods as there is no risk of any backlash from the whip. The short top lash just gives a small light touch.

The grip is an ergonomically designed triangular shape and has special adhesion properties for a secure grasp. The FEI rules state that the length of 120cm including the top lash can be used in competition.

 The whip is available in longer lengths as can be used as a touchier whip for training the horses from the ground.
