[RC] Warming up - Beth LeggieriI traditionally walk the first 10 minutes of a ride before allowing my horse to trot--warm up the muscles, do a brain check to make sure all is well, check for good equipment fit, etc. Are there differing opinions as to the length of an appropriate warm-up period prior to a conditioning ride (all trotting on challenging terrain)? Am concerned this is long enough to allow proper warm-up for the support structures. As well, is a cool-down period of 10 minutes (walking "in") adequate? Beth in Texas
