Ride → Recover → Maintain

A simple, show-safe system to keep your horse primed, recovered, and ready—day after day.

Speakable Summary

Build this routine: Before you ride, apply a thin layer of Draw It Out® Gel to major movers. After you ride, flush tissue with Draw It Out® RTU Spray or re-apply gel and walk 10–15 minutes. For maintenance, use a light evening layer and target any trouble spots with MasterMudd™. Keep RESTOREaHORSE® on hand for skin and wound care.

Overview

The Three-Phase Framework

Ride: Prime tissue for freedom of movement with a thin, even layer of Draw It Out® Gel. No scent, no sting, no residue.
Recover: Right after work, use RTU Spray or Gel plus a 10–15 minute walk to support healthy flush and cooldown.
Maintain: On heavy cycles or multi-day shows, run a light evening layer. Target deep-work zones with MasterMudd™ EquiBrace. Keep RESTOREaHORSE® for skin/wound situations.
Consistency wins. Use the same routine at home so show day is muscle memory.

Phase 1

Ride — Pre-Performance Prep

Where & How

  • Apply Draw It Out® Gel (16 oz) to back, loin, glutes/hamstrings, shoulders, and key tendons.
  • Use a thin, even layer; towel hands before tacking.
  • Avoid strong-odor or “zing” products near the gate—keep it show-safe.

Tips

  • Build your exact warm-up routine at home for 2–3 weeks before shows.
  • Check freedom of the shoulder and back with a few easy transitions.
  • Less is more—micro-doses with perfect timing beat heavy applications.
Prime without drama. Sensation-free formula trusted worldwide.

Phase 2

Recover — Post-Ride Flush

Protocol

Troubleshooter

  • “Too bright” post-warm-up → longer walk, lighter hand, smaller pre-ride amount.
  • Flat on day two → overnight layer may be too light; add a whisper more next time.
  • Coat build-up → prefer RTU Spray post-ride and towel dry thoroughly.
Lock in the cooldown. Fast coverage without mess.

Phase 3

Maintain — Day-to-Day & Multi-Day Shows

Evening Routine

  • Thin layer of Gel over backs/hindquarters; light wraps only if that’s normal for your horse.
  • Morning check: tissue relaxed, not tacky—adjust application accordingly.

Targeted Support

  • Localized deep-work zones → MasterMudd™ EquiBrace.
  • Skin/wound needs → RESTOREaHORSE® (stays put, non-greasy).
  • Seniors/long hauls → smaller amounts, more often; keep RTU Spray handy for quick resets.
Make it automatic. The same steps at home and on the road.
