Pawing is tricky (especially if they wait until you walk away to do it!) The key to changing behavior is to make sure that all praise and discipline is consistent so (just for instance...) Let's say that when you have her in the cross ties you carry a dressage whip with you (this is not to do anything violent for the record) however when she paws you tap her on the shoulder of the leg she is pawing with and say, firmly, "No." Which is the consistent consequence each time it happens. The purpose of using the dressage whip is you can reach her from far away, not for violence. Now the other side of this is you also have to teach and reenforce good behavior as well. So for starters, when you do a task and she doesn't paw I would take the time to encourage that good behavior as well. You can use treats, but I would only give treats when she makes the decision not to paw after you have worked with her a bit and she chooses not to paw. ((Otherwise she won't associate the 'not pawing' with the treat and then she will just want treats for no reason!)) The reality is that every behavior can be trained, but it takes very consistent and diligent effort. But more importantly the ability to stay patient and not allow frustration to change the rules. The rules have to stay unemotional with a black and white application, so the horse knows: this good & this bad. And never forget you are basically dealing with the cognitive ability of a toddler, so somedays will be easier than others! (That's where the patience comes in haha 🤣 )

This is a test that was designed by psychologists and sport scientists. In the book referenced there was not a variation without the colors as that is part of the test. This is also a very simplistic minimalistic version just to test one's response inhibition.

The purpose of this video is to watch the full length video in which I can go into more details about the application of this simple test and how it is used to guide elite athletes on how to control their brains in high pressure situations. Cheers 🥂

I am glad you like them! ❤️ Many more to come highlighting the Olympics!! Stay tuned 🤠

Ok I didn't know who that was so I looked it up and if I am not mistaken she sounds a little British haha 🤣 I would love that accent!!

You're welcome! I hope you enjoyed the video 🤠 Which was your favorite?

@@HashtagTeamFuego I like all of your videos, especially those on Paris 2024.

@@KannaSugiura-qv7yi I love to hear that!! Good news is more to come! I still have more cross country and stadium to edit 🤠

I love it! This one was fun to make, unfortunately my face always looks like the first half of the video 🤣

In terms of what happened to the horse for the injury, I am not 100% sure, but he did have a tear in his superficial tendon. His injury had a 6 months of rest and 6 months of under saddle rehab. During his rehab I also used the Equiband (which is how this channel got started so there are tons of videos about how to use the Equiband bc of it) In the end, the horse was able to fully heal and I give a lot of credit to the Equiband for his rehab success. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions! 🤠

I am really glad you found it helpful! Injuries are never fun to deal with, so I hope your horse is on his way to recovery! I have many videos on this channel about rehabbing with the Equiband in case your vet recommends that for his recovery too! 🤠

Whoa. This video not about basketball, it's about work ethic and what can be achieved through dedication. Also, the true value of someone's life is the impact they have after they are gone. We could all stand to still learn lessons from Kobe in 2024 and beyond!

I agree she didn't say anything against work ethic; however, backing and public support are both derived from a Kobe like work ethic. "You will be praised in public for what you practice in private." For context, she is also speaking to someone who was the NCAA women's all time leading scorer at one point. Athletic achievements are **always** won in the gym, in the weight room or on the field of practice; regardless of the demographics represented on someone's drivers license. Thank you for your comment 🤠

She was downplaying her work ethic and made it as though her "demographic" and privilege is why she's getting the success that she has. I believe it's the other way around though. She has an incredible work ethic and that "privilege" helps give her a little push - and that's no fault of her own. We all have advantages and disadvantages in life. What is she supposed to do in that situation and what's the point of A'ja bringing it up? It's a tired narrative.

@@MillionaireHoyOriginal A'ja wasn't knocking her for having the privilege though. A'ja was saying the that she liked how Paige acknowledged that she had the privilege. Paige herself has come out and commented on the fact that she doesn't believe the black women basketball players get the same level and respect as the white women basketball players. How is it a bad thing for A'ja expressing respect for Paige being able to acknowledge that. It's weird to me how people will get mad at other people for just illuminating the their own reality. It's not even like A'ja was giving some public speech. She was just having a conversation with another player that she believed was similar to Paige. I'm pretty sure she wasn't even expecting it to become part of the public record.

@@Celestial_Souljah To your point this was said in "private" to Paige, however, it's still a tired narrative. I hear similar things in regard to Eminem, and other non-black people in predominantly black spaces. YES, Eminem was more widely recieved due to his skin color, but that doesn't at all take away from his ability. However, there are still plenty of people in rap/hip-hop that constantly want Em to "kiss the ring" and kowtow, because he's not black - and there are plenty that say that he's a "visitor" in hip-hop and can't be considered one of the best. A'ja is acknowledging Paige's attempt at virtue signaling, which Paige has every right to do, but why not just play the game to the best of your ability and avoid all the identity politics? NO ONE was talking about the WNBA, but now that Caitlin is generating some interest, far too many players are trying to tear her down for it. My opinion, of course.

@@MillionaireHoyOriginal Yes, this is a reoccurring problem in black spaces, but there is history behind that. It's just a fact that white people who are great at something typically dominated by black people get a boost because a lot of white people would rather support that white person than the black people that have been doing it. I personally don't even think there is anything wrong with that. If Caitlin Clark has a bunch of fans that didn't even care about the WNBA until she came along and now they like her because she'd good and white, that's fine. That's their choice. The problem is when those people are elevated and given the crown of being the best just because they have the biggest fanbase. That's the problem a lot of HipHop fans have with Eminem (moreso his supporters). Everyone acknowledges that Eminem is a great rapper. It's just that most true HipHop heads know that Eminem's race is a big factor in his sales and accolades. You may not like the narrative, but I don't see how you can fault people for bringing it up when the people that you're defending, Paige and Eminem, have said themselves that the narrative is accurate.

That's why making videos like this is so important because in a sea of chaos people are actually looking for stability. Merit should be the first, second, and third reason anyone gets a job. Funny how the world's solution today for discrimination, is more discrimination. The world will find balance again ♥

I agree it should be common sense! The video wouldn't even be necessary if the video A'ja made didn't exist. Hopefully at least one person is able to turn their thinking around from this video 🤠 thank you for watching 😃

One of my favorites of the day!

Haha horses are so strong already and the ones that pull are even stronger! Glad you enjoyed the video, and this horse was an easy choice! I'm a sucker for that front leg action 🤠

@@oliverboardman7440 THANK YOU! Americans have to mess up the tradition by putting one hand on their head to keep you sitting up straight to also get the right balance, but THANK YOU! everyone was doing it 😂😂

Happy Equibanding! 🤠 🤣

Chain who/what up? 😂

You are welcome 😊 It's always easier just to watch a demo 😉 glad it is helpful!

?

I used it for a video

@@StrideawayGirl oh cool! Shoot me the link 🤠

I hope it helps! 🐴

@@AndradeFrancoisI absolutely love this version of the song ❤️‍🔥

Haha 🤣 this one was definitely fun to ride!!

Glad to hear I am not the only crazy one 😜 Ultimately though, you explained that exactly how I feel, that XC is a different type of riding altogether and adrenaline is not the point, its just an added benefit 🤠

Since she couldn't ask with words I am not sure what actually asking would have looked like 😂 🤣

That's why I made the video comparing all the flags on this fence because I was curious who else (if any) also got flag penalties, I was learning in real time when I recorded the video and found it interesting she was literally the ONLY one with this penalty. (A little sus) I know they assess from a head on video angle, but it was very clear that all these horses made an effort to jump the fence in front of them... This rule lives in the gray area, and I can only hope that they are more consistent with it in the future because luckily for the grand jury this didn't cost GB a metal, but if it had....there would have been an uproar! Thank you for your comment! 🤠 I did this video as an experiment, but it's just a conversation that needs to be had for future consistency!!

I have a suspicious hunch that you probably don't understand any girls haha 🤣 🤠 👧

Since the course was in France and I am in America it would have been quite the commute for that walk haha! For the record I would have LOVED to have been there in person though 🤠 Thank you for your comment 😃

@@offthebeatentrail4476 maybe for you, but for someone who uses an Equiband…that video links to a longer video that is a make or break tool for success with a horse fitness program. Perspective is individual 🤠

YeeHaw!

@HashtagTeamFuego I've had an on and off relationship with my soul mate, they wouldn't sell her, I was moving, everytime I went 'home ' I visited her 1st. She is so particular about who she likes to the point of planting her feet and not moving and I'm not going to say she's never bitten anyone 😂 I ended up getting an OTTB who was amazing, no regrets just always felt I was holding her back so made decision to sell her and she definitely has her forever partner and after 8+ years my horse showed up at Christmas time with a big red bow, they were downsizing and would only let her go if it was to me. She is a 22yo crazy Morgan who, after 2 years can't believe she's mine! They had her hauled from Maine to SC and her and I haven't skipped a beat nor did age slow her down 😂❤️ but I just thought that message you said is so very true ❤️

​@@amybourdeau5311 I love it! Thank you for sharing your story, I have a similar one from after my last horse died and I found my own "soulmate." I love that she came back to you after all those years! ❤‍🔥I am sure she loves it too!! (PS Biting is a form of aggressive love haha)

I actually have two mares (female horses) but this video is with my male horse. Geldings have a reputation for being more easy going and mares have a reputation for being more temperamental. I can promise you from my many years of working with both that either gender can behave well or poorly, and it's all how the horse reacts in the moment... I made this video to demonstrate his stretching routine because as he is showing you, the stretching feels good for his overall body health. Since animals can't speak they have to show rather than tell. For me, it's confirmation he likes stretching. Thank you for the question!

Amen!

So happy I accidentally was recording it too haha😂😂
