Do you consider the importance of hydration when your in the arena, or out on the trail? Not just for your horse, but for yourself too. If you don't, you really should.
The following is written by Nicola Jaffrey. Nicola is an Accredited Sports Dietitian and the owner of Embody Nutrition Consulting and I've asked her to help us with understanding how, and why hydration is important to us as horse women.
Read on ..
One of the most common nutrition concerns for equestrian athletes, particularly when training out in the heat, is hydration.
How many of you consider your water intake to be a top priority when preparing to go out on the horse? If you don’t, I hope that I can convince you otherwise in the next few paragraphs!
One of the best ways to see if you body is well hydrated is to monitor the colour of your urine. You should be aiming for a pale yellow colour most of the time (first thing in the morning will always be a little darker).
If your urine is clear, you can back off the water a little but if it is dark yellow or brown, drinking a glass of water should be your top priority!

Really happy with my new riding pants. Light and stretchy ! The color is perfect too (brown) they fit like a glove! Thank you
Lovely design and fabric, chose medium , good fit , love it !
I have been looking for a comfortable pair of pants to wear on the bike on sunday rides. These are amazing. So comfortable and cool to wear plus dang my legs look great in them.
Thanks heaps will recommend them to others
Fit is perfect and comfortable
Thicker material that will be great in winter, can’t wait to use them
I love the subtle non-horsey print. Fabric is very soft, and it does fit as expected.
I want to thank the team for their great service and help during the postal strike in Canada. Allowing me to place order and hold shipping for almost 2 months. Thank you. I have not had the opportunity to wear yet, I do love the feel of the garment and it is so well made. The workmanship is beautiful. Looking forward to the first opportunity to wear.
I have just received my tights in the mail which was delivered quickly after I placed my order. I love the feel of the fabric. I am sure that I will enjoy riding in these tights as the fit feels great. The sizing is generous. Colleen has gave wonderful customer service. 5 stars for her.
The fit is exactly like the description. Love the 4 way stretch. I have short legs so I will need to get a small hem put on them but I love them!
Had such great customer service from Ride Proud Clothing.
With the Canadian Postal Stike on and nothing moving they held onto my purchase so I could take advantage of their sale. Once they were able to ship my jeans they notified me right away to let me know they were finally on there way.
Once they arrived I had to put them on. Didn’t matter I had no where to go as the weather had turned nasty. Once on I didn’t want to take them off so I wore them around the house for the rest of the day. They are so comfortable to wear and the fit is perfect. Love how stretchy they are and how they don’t restrict your movement. These are definitely going to be my go to jeans.
Awesome fit and such beautiful fabric. Very happy with it.

The Trail Gen 2 pants finally arrived yesterday. Because of the Canada Post mail strike they took much longer than expected.
The fit is pretty good. The waist is generous and I have room to wear long johns underneath for winter riding. I am 5,9” and about 145lbs. I ordered the Australian size 14 maybe could have gone with the 12? I am happy with these even though I haven’t had a chance to ride in the them yet!
I love riding on these tops! They fit beautifully, look stylish and wash well. I’m a curvy gal and struggle to find a good fit in riding tops but not any more - as soon as a new colour is launched, I order it and stock up 🤣
Love them ! Straight out of the post box! Straight on the horse ! Great to ride in!
Well made shirt. Great videos to assist in sizing. Shipped immediately.
