Prepare your horse for the effort : discover our advices
Several factors must be taken into consideration in order to prepare your horse before the effort.
This is the key to success for an optimal performance.
A competition horse must always be put in good conditions several weeks before its performance. This is done first and foremost through proper training: a well-muscled and prepared horse is much less likely to injure itself and will recover more easily.
Regular training is therefore necessary to allow the horse to gain muscle mass and then to maintain it gently.
Taking into consideration the recovery of the horse and giving it special care after the effort is also essential. It is a question of encouraging the return to normal of the heartbeat and ventilation of the horse, while preserving it from aches and pains and pathologies linked to too much effort.
To do this, we strongly advise you to offer your companion an active recovery, by making him walk or trot at a steady pace. You can also help your horse recover passively by applying external care products and massages.

The results with C-600 from Royal Horse
Royal Horse has conducted a study on several horses under real life conditions. We have tested horses having consumed the Royal Horse supplement, and other horses with the classic food. The horses taking the C-600 horse food supplement react better to the effort. A more constant heart rate at rest is observed in the subjects observed.
The horse’s speed at 200 beats per minute or V200 (a parameter to monitor training progress) is also higher than that of horses whose diet does not include supplements.
