25.01.2022 We came across this hysterically funny and very wise "horse wanted" ad from a mom recently. What would you write in a "horse wanted" ad for YOUR dream horse?

06.01.2022 Chazot Thoughts 58/Classical Umbrella/Part 2 To discover something new, you must be willing to loosen your grip on the old. (Michael J. Gelb) In horses, an...d most other mammalian quadrupeds, 57% of the vertical impulse is applied through the thoracic limbs, and only 43% through the hind limbs. (H. W. Merkens, H. C. Schamhardt,G. J. van Osch, Anton J. van den Bogert, 1993). The findings are in complete contradiction with the fundamental principles of classical equitation; Engaging the hind legs forward under the body, toward the center of gravity allows the horse to propel himself upward and forward into lightness. And now, scientific measurements show that it is in fact our front legs that produce the greatest amount of vertical forces. For us horses, this is not new; we know that since our first step, but for you humans, I can see the confusion. You truly have to consider a paradigm shift. Caesar commented, They are going to have hard time swallowing this one. Basically, you have two solutions, deny or evolution. He told me that when the study was published for the first time, angry dummies violently rejected the measurements suggesting that the group of scientists had an agenda; than they interpreted the data to fit their opinion. Basically, riders blame the scientists for what riders do all the time. He is used to these low class reactions; he meets them each time he explains new scientific discoveries. As a matter of fact, he personally knows Anton den Bogert as they worked together for one research study. He greatly respect Anton as a superiorly intelligent man and a genius in mathematics. He is a scientific researcher in equine biomechanics but he does not ride. He does not have any interest and any opinion in riding and training principles. His team of researchers measured forces produced by the hind and front legs and published the results. With a smile, he told me about an event that occurred during the experiment that they completed together. They placed seven sensors on the horse back and the computer screen showed seven columns of digits. Anton looked at the screen, looked closer a specific number saying, This number is wrong; sensor number two is not working properly. He laughed saying, there are thousand digits on the screen and you can see one number that is not correct? Anton responded, You point out a limb kinematics abnormality and I look at the limb and I can’t see anything. Then I verify through my numbers and realize that you are right, I can see the abnormality though my digits. Our brains work their respective ways but we find the same results. The classical interpretation is that we engage our hind legs forward underneath our body and propel ourselves upward into balance. Measurements demonstrate that in fact our forelegs produce greater upward propulsive force than our hind legs. Let me tell you how we do it and you will understand why your ancestors believed what they believe. Their thought is that our alighting hind leg propels our body upward as soon as ground contact. In reality, we do not propel our body upward as soon as ground contact. Instead, we resist attraction of gravity. Our joint fold under the load of impact forces and our muscles and associated tendons resist impact forces. Scientific studies refer to this sequence of the stride as the braking phase. They use the term braking because our hoof push on the ground in the direction of the motion. He prefers the term decelerating phase. I agree with him. Our alighting hind leg decelerates our body resisting attraction of gravity and inertia forces. Our joints flex and elastic strain energy is stored during this phase in our tendons, aponeurosis and even muscles. This elastic strain energy is used for the second part of the stance, which is the pushing phase. Basically, when our supporting hind leg starts its propulsive activity, our hind limb is no longer engaged forward under our body, but instead, under the vertical of our tuber coxal and moving backward. This kinematics is very well known from serious research studies and since decades. Classical trainers who still believe in propulsive activity as soon as impact are too busy looking in the past for even look at actual knowledge. Decades ago, Schryver and his team concluded talking about the propulsive activity of our hind legs, The net effect is CLICKLINK TO READ ON http://scienceofmotion.com/chazot_s_thoughts_58.html
