    [RC] Strengthening a Shoulder - Ridecamp Guest


    Maureen A. Fager trottin27@xxxxxxxxxxx
    Hello All,
    My mare had a pasture injury on May 13, soft tissue injury in her R knee.  I will be able to ride her again soon, and the vet diagnosed her as also being weak on the right side, and in the hind end, and we also noticed some muscle athropy in her right shoulder.  This all seems correct from how she rode before her injury, espceially when fatigued.  She did her fisrt 50 two weeks befor the injury.  I wanted to ask about ideas for strenghtening her shoulder and hind end before she goes back into endurance training.  I think for the hind end poles and calaletti would be good, but I don't know what do for strengthening a shoulder.  Any ideas out there?  I know to start slow and work incrementaly, but I need some ideas on what type of work.
    Also, since the crash of RC I have not been able to post to RC, so any help for that also?  I was signed up as post only, and I still show up as signed up when I look up my record but I still can't post.  Thannks in advance to any suggestions!!
    Happy Trails,
