Lunging and Riding exercise good for aids and hind muscles
This is a lunging exercise I‘ve been doing for the past couple of weeks, but tweaked a little (and it can be done on saddle too). I trot Nathan over the poles and ask hom to canter immediatley after. I ask him to go back to trot right before the poles and repeat that a few times on both reins. Its an amazing exercise for both listening to aids and hind muscles.

Serpentines with poles
This is an exercise my trainer and I have worked on for a few weeks now. Its used to help with lead changes in canter, but can also help with loosening the horse while trotting

Poles
Polework is great for all seats. Walk, trot and cantering. Encourages good use of leg, proper straightness, and flow.

Grid work
Grid work is so much fun and perfect for building up the hind end and working on the rider's position. Play around the number of fences....poles, X's, verticals and or oxers. Bounces, one stride or two strides. Landing left or right. Working on lead changes.

Jumping with Leg Yields.
The classic jumping / cavaletti exercise to get balance, lateral movement....and is perfect to practice collection and extension. Try a long or short approach and switch it up. Also perfect for lead changes.

Easy setup
I think this pole grid is so easy to set up because you don’t need to think about the distances (At least if you’re me, I always skip the poles at the and and beginning😂 Just the two crosses)

Serpentine bows 👌
Serpentine bowsThis is an exercise that I do almost every riding session👌 Thanks to the changes of direction in the bows, the horse needs to bend its body, which improves the horse's agility and balance.
