Episode #41: All About Stifles
Join me for this episode where we go in-depth on stifles. It’s a huge information-packed episode, so fasten your seatbelt!
I will run through risk factors for stifle issues (aside from trauma, and birth issues). And, I will go through some symptoms of stifle issues, or behaviours you will notice in training that could indicate that you need to take a look at your horse’s stifles.
A huge focus of this episode is on weakness in the quadriceps. I cover not just anatomy, but how to keep stifles strong and functioning at optimal levels for long-term soundness.
