You're probably familiar with a recent study that found much better recovery with feeding a high carbohydrate meal immediately post exercise. I think the research was done on sled dogs. I wonder if it works for horses. Dot's experience would indicate so. What's the difference between a field report and a testimonial? Libby (going to a ride, be back Monday) This is something I have done, and recommended, for a long time. Although I do wait at least one hour after finishing before giving it (that is, after the Best Condition exam) and I break it up into several feedings a couple of hours apart. -- Joe Long jlong@xxxxxxxx http://www.rnbw.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
