Our custom in-ground water treadmill is a safe way to condition and strengthen the equine athlete with the added benefits of buoyancy and reduced concussion. The water resistance makes for a great workout and promotes symmetrical muscle development, and increased strength and tightening of the joint capsules, tendons, and ligaments. Water treadmill exercise is a great cross-training tool as well as a rehabilitation and preconditioning tool to prepare for heavier training.

Benefits of Equine Water Treadmill:

• Strengthens muscles
• Enables more rigorous workouts with less concussion
• Improves top line, core strength and hind end muscles
• Increases range of motion
• Reduces recovery time after injury
• Preconditions horses before strenuous workloads
• Improves cardiovascular fitness
• Increases stride length

Horses that will benefit from Water Treadmill workouts:

• Top equine athletes needing to gain that extra strength and winning edge
• Horses recovering from injury or surgery
• Horses with difficulty in collecting exercises
• Horses with weak lead changes or short stride length
• Horses needing low impact cardiovascular conditioning
• Horses with asymmetrical muscle development
• Young horses needing strengthening and conditioning without over-stressing bone and joint structures
• Horses compensating for a weakness from injury
• Horses needing a break from their regular routine
