Your favorite grid queen is ready to jump into the new season with another Grid of the Day. Lainey Ashker has laid out another great exercise to fine tune your jumping skills.

“Today’s #GOTD is a great exercise to hone your horse’s straightness, tight knees, steady rhythm and focus on the rider’s quiet posture to facilitate all of these things,” she posted.

She’s laid out the distances in the diagram below. Don’t forget: this is a trotting exercise.

She even added a video on how you can adapt this grid for your greenies. She breaks it down into four helpful stages beginning with ground poles and leading up to cross rails.

Here’s a vocal explanation on how to start your greenies over yesterday’s #GOTD courtesy of Snitch!
