Nutrition for the Performance Horse
October 23 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
ABOUT THE LIVE WEBINAR
Join our webinar to discover how basic nutrients are utilized to craft diets for working horses based on their specific exercise types and intensities. Performance horses are not just show jumpers, eventers, reiners, or endurance horses. From the trusty school horse giving lessons several days a week to top competitors, performance spans many levels. Learn why not all performance diets are the same and how different muscle types require different “fuels.” We will also explore tailored diets for horses across various disciplines, offering practical examples and insights. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your understanding of equine nutrition and performance.
EVENT DETAILS
Attend a free, one-hour webinar covering how to balance diets for working horses based on exercise type and intensity, and exploring nutrition for different disciplines.
