Holly, so glad to get another vid from you.You're such a sweet person. Ya, everything you say about stretching horse over back and teaching them to use their body more efficiently is so true. some people don't understand that horses benefit so much from correct training.

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

[@ailbhelee7049]

😍😍😍theres a really good fly repellent you can get in holmstead. Its like €20 i think for 1 litre but its really good. I think its calles horse and cattle fly repellent incase your looking xx

[@natalialovezriding1173]

With the horse I usually ride when I'm doing bounces I have to trot her over the first one then the rest canter or she will just try and gallop

[@eventingtia8512]

Ah Khal is stunning 😍 he looks so mature now!

[@lauramurphy4794]

[@Emma17456]

[@abbyqueenan4127]

You are such an amazing rider! New subscriber btw 😉😉 I rode yesterday and the ride was awesome, just wanted to say that cuz I felt like it 😂😂😂😂 love the vid ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Ah brilliant! Haha it’s nice to share those kinds of things! ❤️

[@sitkaswart7315]

Hi Holly you must try to get a lunging snake Because an elastiek lets them hang olso sidrains are the same And that heps to get them long and low

[@hyunjini7586]

People always mistake my Quarter Horse for a Warmblood because she built so much topline from doing long and low lol. Also, your teeth look amazing! Oh and have you thought about trying chambon? I love them so much! They really help them stretch down and out!

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Thanks! And I’m really happy with the results I get from the aids I use now so haven’t needed to try a chambon ☺️

[@makaylagracy]

Wooh!! Congrats!!

[@northernirishgal2681]

Holly I’ve a chestnut mare to and always rushes fenses to, have u any tips . Love ur videos x

[@SMV1199]

Fiona is beautiful! Jack is great as well, I love the chubby ponies!! You look so effortless when you ride too

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@lilyanderson5879]

Khal is gorg!!! What do you use on him to get him long and low and when he does put his head up he has contact? I have a 5yo mare and she goes round with her like a giraffe😬.. your amazing btw xx

[@susanford6926]

I think you are doing great with Fiona!🐎🍎🥕

[@hayley2457]

You sit beautifully!! Ps I love how you keep your horses like jack not just sell them when you’re bored of them!!

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Thank you! And I couldn’t sell jack because he’s my first pony, but I have sold horses in the past and I completely support responsible horse selling ☺️

[@hayley2457]

Holly Lenahan I am for selling horses but i feel like some people treat them as ‘disposable’ and like how you don’t get rid of them quickly if you get what I mean xx

[@haloeventingvlogs2377]

Do you have any tips on keeping your lower leg still when jumping?

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Try strengthening your leg with no stirrups work :)

[@haloeventingvlogs2377]

Holly Lenahan thank you :)

[@melissamarvel9564]

What stretching techniques do you do my horse needs to open up his stride

[@fabsrichardson7509]

OMG you ride so nicely im so jealous how do you keep such a nice position ? xx

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Thank you! And just practice I guess!

[@fabsrichardson7509]

Holly Lenahan would you be able to do a video exposing how to keep the posture in canter xx

[@shannonsoper2194]

Love you!💞💞🐎

[@luemun]

Yay you're back!

[@cerievangelidis9900]

Loved this video

[@hannahcoral]

Holly: Fat Jack he is called, because he's so fat. Jack: *what did u just say about me*

[@BriaEquestrian]

Jack works for 15 minutes. Holly gives him food and replenishes all the calories Jack spent the last 15 minutes burning off 😂 love ya Holly 😂❤

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Haha I swear I only gave him a handful of feed 😂

[@BriaEquestrian]

what are the reins sorta things you used on Fiona to have her drop her head? I need to get me horse to drop his head to build up his top line, so I want to get something like he thing you have.

[@nipsuyamo]

Horse Crazy i think she said she used elastic bungee, but people use baler twine or leather too. Just be careful and lower it gradually, as you said, he doesn't have the muscle to hold it down so you need to build it up slowly

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

A bungee :) I think it’s also called an elastic training aid in some online shops

[@livhonestly]

How do you longe, I always end up pivoting and then get dizzy, I know you have to walk a small circle while the horse circles around. But I only dod this once, can you give me your input?

[@glazeddonut1148]

If you get dizzy , focus on one point I personally look at her eyeb

[@nevearmstrong3675]

How many hands are all your horses cause in this video I heard u said jack I think it was, is 14hh if I remember right

[@aubreyhouze3721]

What is the bungee thing called? For the life of me I can't remember...

[@myhorseandme]

Can you do a video on the stretches? :)

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

I already have! ☺️

[@cassiby1593]

Just wondering how tall you are to say you've outgrown Jack? I'm 5'2 and my 2 ponies are 12.3 and 13.1 🤣 I'm 21 also so ponies forever for me haha

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

I’m 5”8 haha

[@Annahartleyyy]

hiya, not sure if you can help but i’ve been using a pessoa system on my horse and he doesn’t understand working long and low? in walk he walks with his nose touching the floor but in trot he goes very hollow with his head high in the air. i assume it’s to do with a lack of muscle. do you have any other advice to help build those muscles up faster? x

[@hayley2457]

Anna Cutforth Maybe try an equi-ami which encourages more stretching whereas the pessoa sort of encourages more of a round outline

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

The Pessoa should be encouraging him into a long and low outline, are you sure it’s set at a correct length for him, if its too loose, it won’t have an contact on the bit or his hind end :)

[@olliethehorse2198]

Khal is so uphill ❤❤❤

[@juliusmcmahon1653]

Amazing video

[@libbyclyde2281]

WELBECK!! I love you(and the horses!) Xxxxxx Jacks not fat... He's cuddily. Xxx

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Haha I think he’d appreciate the word cuddly instead of fat ;)

[@libbyclyde2281]

Holly Lenahan lol

[@jennapicard6892]

My horse always trots with his head so high and it’s sometimes uncomfortable to ride to. But in the canter he’s fine, how can I let him lower his head

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Try getting lessons with a good instructor, it’s almost impossible for me to give you advice without seeing the horse, sorry!

[@darbywaund1327]

Omg can I have cal? 😂 love the vid holly!

[@katienicholls6915]

What do you do to build muscle ? I've just gotten a horse who has little to no muscle and am struggling to find a way to get him to build it without losing any weight, any ideas would be greatly appreciated :)

[@kynancapybarafan9964]

horsecrazykatie 12 Jumping is a good way, maybe ask a vet whats good for your horse tho as all horses are different!

[@katienicholls6915]

Katie Hatton okay thanks

[@marissanieves4157]

Lunging on hills, riding up and down hills.. any hill work is GREAT!! Lunge using the bungee that Holly says.. we call it an Awa here. Research supplements.

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

I find lunging and riding in a long and low frame is brilliant. Also lunging and riding over raised trot poles really really helps!

[@myequinelife6447]

What are the reins called you used on kahl? Cx

[@ellie9864]

My Equine Life vienna reins

[@hbshowjumping2735]
