Free Guide: Posting Diagonals Made Simple (+ exercises to make it easier for you to do)
Have you ever heard the term "diagonal" in trotting but never fully understood why it matters, even for western riders?
Most riders think posting diagonals are just about looking correct in a show arena but they’re missing the bigger picture.
The diagonal you post on affects:
- Your balance in the saddle
- Your hip symmetry and core activation
- Your horse’s movement and back loading
- Your horse's hind end symmetry and strength
- Long-term crookedness in both horse and rider
If you always post on the same diagonal, you may be unintentionally reinforcing asymmetry, just like only strength training one side of your body.
In this free guide, you’ll learn:
âś“ What posting diagonals actually areÂ
✓ How to quickly tell if you’re on the correct diagonal
âś“ Why posting on both diagonals matters for rider symmetry
✓ How to switch if you're on the incorrect diagonal
âś“ 4 exercises to do to improve your hip motor control to make this easy and more comfortable for you as a rider.
