Show Horse Warm-Up & Recovery Routine | Draw It Out® Liniment

Show Horse Warm-Up & Recovery with Liniment

During show season, your horse is under more physical and mental pressure than usual. Between hauling, competing, and adjusting to new environments, muscle fatigue and tension are common. That’s where a liniment routine becomes essential—not just for performance, but for your horse’s long-term soundness.

Pre-Show Warm-Up Benefits

  • Promotes circulation: Draw It Out® Liniment preps muscles and joints before performance.
  • Reduces tension: Keeps your horse loose and responsive in the warm-up pen.
  • Enhances focus: A relaxed horse performs with more confidence and rhythm.

Post-Performance Recovery

  • Prevents soreness: Applying liniment post-ride helps prevent muscle tightness.
  • Reduces inflammation: Especially after intense rounds or jumping events.
  • Boosts recovery time: Keeps your horse ready for the next go-round.

Best Practices at the Show

  • Apply liniment to legs, back, and shoulders before and after your ride.
  • Massage gently or use under wraps for overnight recovery.
  • Use with standing wraps or ice boots as needed for extra support.
