Pre-Ride Warm-Up with Liniment
Every great ride starts before you ever put your foot in the stirrup. Warming up your horse’s muscles and joints is key to unlocking peak performance and preventing injury. With Draw It Out® Liniment, your pre-ride routine becomes more than just tradition—it becomes high-performance prep.
Why Pre-Ride Warm-Ups Matter
Just like human athletes, horses need to prepare their bodies for movement. Cold or stiff muscles are more prone to strains, sprains, and uneven performance. Warming up improves circulation, activates key muscle groups, and mentally prepares your horse for the task ahead.
- Boosts blood flow: Warms tissues and supports elasticity.
- Reduces stiffness: Prevents discomfort in joints and muscles.
- Improves performance: Allows for better movement and responsiveness.
How to Use Liniment for Pre-Ride Prep
- Apply Draw It Out® Liniment to the legs, shoulders, and back 10–15 minutes before riding.
- Gently massage into the muscles to activate circulation.
- Pair with hand walking or light lunging for full warm-up effect.
- Use under wraps or boots if extra support is needed.
This simple step can make a world of difference—especially for older horses, hard-working athletes, or those returning to work after time off.
