Gait kinematics at trot before and after repeated ridden exercise tests in young Friesian stallions during a fatiguing 10-week training program
The young Friesian stallions showed individually different responses in absolute gait kinematics after exercise and during an intense training program. The increased ROM<sub>withers</sub> and CV of stride characteristics after SETs suggest an acute effect of fatigue on the locomotion pattern. Further investigation is warranted for the pronounced upper body movement asymmetry related to published asymmetry reference values.
