Does anyone know a good Horse Fitness Plan?

Question by Sarah: Does anyone know a good Horse Fitness Plan?
I really want to have a fitness plan to go by to get my pony fit. He is currently 10years, 14hh, clydie x anglo-arab and he is really really fat but semi-fit. Like he can do acouple of rounds at 90cm but is puffing alot after. And he can trot for about 5minutes straight then gets abit tired but he is an extremly active pony! Does anyone have any good sites for me to look at or any plan’s themselves? Thanks.

Personally what I do when a horse needs to be conditioned is to do a lot of work on the flat. Make a strict schedule. Example, if you are riding for an hour, you could try:
-Warm-up walk, ten minutes.
-Trotting, ten minutes.
-Walk break, four minutes.
-Trotting, fifteen minutes.
-Walk break, five minutes.
-Cantering, ten minutes.
-Cool-off, six-ten minutes.
That’s just one thing. I like to do a lot of trot and canter work, nice and forward on the flat. Really get him to reach out in his stride and bend into the corners. Soon enough that should get him conditioned.
But don’t take it too fast and wear him out. If it gets hot where you live, be sure to let him have lots of walk breaks and some water.
Good luck!

** Eat six mini meals a day. Exercise and before every meal, drink two tall glasses of water, (about 16 oz.) this will fill you up and you will automatically eat less. This really works, so be patient. Good Luck to you
