@Zoffiel, I hear you about the horse.
I got up on Friday, beautiful day, but nearly two months with no riding, he was frisky.
We did walk and trot transitions, up and down, faster and slower, lots of halts and back ups. My coach has said they are the most important part of any work, and really work the brain to keep both of you focussed.
Monday I lunged first (he was a fool and actually ended up falling over) then we did ground work, lots of transitions again including trot, fast trot, slow trot, trot to halt. Really good work out for me the very best thing for him. My coach again, if it ain't working on the ground it ain't going to get better on top!
I did ride but no canter until he is reliable again in walk and trot.
Some days I just do groundwork if I am not feeling up to riding.
I really didn't feel like going out to the stables on Friday, but once I got out there it was good.
I hope you can find your motivation too, Mel's idea of the Exercise physiologist is my best bet, I think.
