Show Season Muscle Recovery – Keep Your Horse Feeling Their Best with Draw It Out® Liniment

Introduction:

Show season is right around the corner, and every rider knows winning starts long before you enter the ring. It’s not just about the conditioning and training—it’s about the recovery.

Your horse’s muscles handle a lot—conditioning rides, hauling, performing—and without proper care, even the most talented horse can end up tight, sore, and less responsive when it counts.

The good news? A smart recovery routine with Draw It Out® Liniment can help your horse stay comfortable, sound, and performing like a champion all season long.

1. Start with a Proper Cool-Down

Post-ride recovery starts the second your ride ends—and it all begins with a solid cool-down.

Walk your horse 10–15 minutes after every ride—whether schooling or showing.
✔ Cool-down helps normalize heart rate, flush lactic acid, and prevent muscle tightening.
✔ Prepares muscles for recovery and sets the tone for faster healing.

💡 Pro Tip: Never skip your cool-down—it’s the easiest way to prevent next-day soreness.

2. Apply Liniment Right After the Ride

The post-ride window is critical for recovery—this is where Draw It Out® Liniment works its magic.

Massage liniment into large muscle groups—shoulders, back, loins, hindquarters.
Apply to legs to reduce swelling, promote circulation, and ease strain.
✔ Use standing wraps with liniment if your horse is stabled post-travel or after tough workouts.

💡 Pro Tip: Draw It Out® is non-greasy, odorless, and safe for everyday use—perfect for sensitive horses.

3. Support Recovery Between Classes

✅ Show days mean multiple classes and mounting muscle fatigue—don’t let stiffness creep in.

✔ Apply liniment between classes to keep muscles loose and responsive.
✔ Safe, show-legal, and perfect for quick ringside application.
✔ Helps prevent that dreaded second-round stiffness so your horse stays sharp and ready.

💡 Pro Tip: Pack Draw It Out® Liniment in your show kit—it’s your secret weapon ringside.

4. Keep Muscles Moving

Recovery doesn’t mean standing still—light movement is key.

Turnout or hand-walking after hauling and long show days keeps circulation flowing.
✔ Reduces the risk of stocking up and helps muscles stay loose.
✔ Recovery is about smart, low-impact motion paired with supportive care.

💡 Pro Tip: Even 20 minutes of light walking post-show day can make a world of difference.

Getting your horse to the ring is just half the job—keeping them feeling their best afterward is where champions are made.

✅ Add Draw It Out® Liniment to your recovery routine this show season.
Reduce soreness, prevent stiffness, and support muscle recovery—ride after ride, round after round.

Because the best performances happen when your horse feels their best. 🐎✨
