Supplements for sports horses – food with increased effort

Sports horses are exposed to greater burdens associated with regular training, start-ups in competitions and intensive work. Supplements for sports horses may complement daily nutrition with the components needed to maintain good fitness, performance, proper muscle work and the efficiency of the whole movement apparatus.

Appropriately selected preparations help to adjust food to horse activity levels and current training requirements. Depending on composition, they can help regeneration after effort, electrolyte economy, muscle development and maintain proper joint and tendon condition.

Sports horse feeding and training intensity

The horse's need for energy, protein, minerals and vitamins changes with the intensity of work. A horse training several times a week may have different needs than an animal regularly competing in competitions or preparing for greater effort.

The supplements of sports horses should be tailored to the full nutritional dose, the type of work performed and the frequency of training. This makes it possible to supplement food better without unnecessary duplication of the same ingredients.

Preparations for regeneration after exercise

After intensive training, the horse's body needs time and appropriate ingredients to rebuild and return to full fitness. Preparations for sports horses may supplement nutrition in substances important for muscle work, electrolyte balance and regeneration processes.

The correct supply of electrolytes may be of particular importance, especially in horses who are severely sweating during training, competitions or work at high temperatures.

Joints, muscles and sports horse movement apparatus

Regular effort not only burdens muscles, but also joints, cartilage, tendons and ligaments. Therefore, the feeding of a working horse is worth considering comprehensively, given both the performance and the condition of the movement apparatus.

Supplements for horses in training may contain ingredients intended to supplement the diet during periods of increased effort and to support the proper functioning of the structures responsible for movement.

How to choose a supplement for a sports horse?

The choice of the preparation should take into account the discipline, level of effort, age, weight and current condition of the horse. Other needs may be a jumping, dressage or running horse in the WKKW, and another horse located at the beginning of the training.

It is also worth taking into account the period of the sports season. The need for the body may be different during preparation for competitions, during frequent starts, and during lighter training and regeneration.
