Getting the balance right between feeding and fitness is essential to maintaining your horse’s health, performance, and welfare. But with busy lifestyles, varying routines, fluctuating workloads, and changes in diet, it can be hard to know if you’re getting it right.
The Equestic Equestrian Tracker, the SaddleClip, takes the guesswork out. It provides accurate data about your horse’s movement and workload, helping you feed for fuel, not fat, and spot the early signs of stress or imbalance before they become a problem.
Here’s how this smart tool supports your horse’s fitness, nutrition, and overall wellbeing.
Why Feeding and Fitness Must Work Together
Horses are designed to graze and move steadily throughout the day. But in modern management systems, we often stable them, feed larger meals, and train at irregular times. If your horse is being fed too little, or too much for their workload, you’ll likely see stress behaviours, weight gain, or gut health issues.
Using the Equestic SaddleClip, you can:
- Monitor how much actual work your horse is doing
- Measures the intensity of your sessions by tracking transitions and the amount of time in each gait.
- Adjust feeding according to changes in workload or condition
This helps you build a feeding plan around your horse’s fitness, not just their appearance.
Using Workload Data to Feed Smarter
Feeding for performance or conditioning is only effective when you know how much your horse is actually doing. The Equestic Equestrian Tracker gives you week-by-week insights into:
- How intense their work is (fast, strength, or light exercise)
- Whether their workload is increasing, decreasing, or inconsistent
With this information, you can come up with a feeding plan consistent with the level of work allowing you to increase feed or forage.
Consistency is key and data from the SaddleClip helps you achieve it.
Feeding to Build Muscle, Not Fat
You can’t always judge condition by eye. A horse might appear ‘well covered’ but be lacking muscle or working far less than expected. That’s where the Equestrian Tracker shines.
It helps you:
- Adjust protein intake to support muscle, not just calories
- Recognise when your horse’s fitness isn’t matching their feed
- Avoid unnecessary diet changes based on assumption
This approach is ideal whether you’re managing a competition horse or a leisure pony.
The Equestic SaddleClip brings clarity, allowing you to make confident decisions that support your horse’s wellbeing at every stage.
