Fit to Compete with VITALstyle

Finally, the outdoor season has started again! Are you ready to ride fanatically again between the white fences or cross through the woods in the sunshine? A good condition of and extra support for your horse can be nice for this. VITALstyle presents five natural and doping-free supplements to keep your horse FIT to COMPETE! 

The basics: muscle building and condition  
Before you go to a competition, it is important to train your horse properly for it. Transport, unloading, the competition itself and the tension involved demand a lot from your horse's muscles. Muscle Force is specially developed for optimal muscle building and stamina. The mix of protein, antioxidants, vitamin E, selenium and a special melon variety support the muscles during training. The essential amino acids in Muscle Force are indispensable for muscle building. By supporting your horse with Muscle Force, he will be powerful, strong and fit with good condition! 

Supple through the body
A supple musculoskeletal system and resilient joints are an important basis for any horse in work. Both when training and competing, you naturally want your horse to move smoothly and have optimal freedom of movement. SouplesseSyrup is a liquid supplement that provides this daily support. With ingredients such as MSM, glucosamine, chondroitin sulphate, hyaluronic acid, honey and yucca, the maintenance of healthy joints, tendons, ligaments and cartilage is optimally supported. SouplesseSyrup is the daily basis for supple (sport) horses!  

Tension in your horse's muscles and head  
A versatile supplement that supports muscles as well as with stress and tension is Magnesium Citrate. It is THE support for muscle function and natural recovery after exercise. In intensively stressed muscles, Magnesium Citrate helps maintain normal muscle tone by replenishing the horse's magnesium needs. After intensive work, the body consumes magnesium for the muscles, which must then be replenished. Magnesium is also consumed by the body during stress and tension, which can occur at competitions. It is precisely the magnesium deficiencies that then increase the feeling of stress, making the supplementation of Magnesium Citrate especially important. 

Is your horse experiencing competition stress?  
Speaking of stress at competition, this can also be very intense for your horse! Jury booths, flowerpots, brightly coloured obstacles or a loud crowd, all kinds of examples that can cause a lot of tension for horses! To get your horse through this a bit better, you can start with the ChillPill 5-7 days in advance. These almond mushroom pills are natural tranquillisers and make horses less sensitive to stress. They act on the nervous system, improving a horse's concentration and taking the edge off. This way, you not only ensure more inner peace, but also a nicer experience for your horse! 

Replenishing electrolytes after strenuous exercise or during hot weather  
During hot weather or after intense training, your horse may sweat, and this means that your horse loses electrolytes. Electrolytes are important building blocks in the horse's body. It is also known as a collective name for several substances: Sodium, Potassium, Chlorine, Calcium and Magnesium. All-important building blocks for many functions in the horse's body. They ensure proper fluid balance, waste removal and muscle function. It is therefore important to prevent and replenish electrolyte deficiencies. With ElectrolytesMix, you replenish electrolyte deficiency quickly and effectively. 
 

Anna Schukken (@Quintesusanna) talks about the effect of Muscle Force for her mare Nanna  
 "When I bought my mare Nanna, she was almost 4 years old and had not been saddled for very long. So, in terms of training, not much had been done with Nanna yet. After a few months with me, I started feeding Muscle Force. This made her muscles really round and she always felt very fit.   

Of course, I am always curious to see if a supplement really works, so I stopped feeding Muscle Force from about October to January. This was to see what it would do to Nanna. Now the horses were no longer on grass at that time, so I'm sure that was also a factor, but I clearly saw my horse's muscling decrease. When I started again in January, I saw her muscles visibly returning. Every lesson, my instructor keeps being amazed at how fit Nanna is for her young age. And even after a hard training session or a competition, Nanna still feels fit and immensely supple the day after. I really couldn't go without this supplement anymore and it is therefore definitely recommended if, like Nanna, your horse is still growing or if your horse simply finds it difficult to gain muscle mass!"
