Most riders think peaking for a big show is about doing more.More jumping. More schooling. More preparation.

But top professionals share that peak performance comes from planning, consistency, recovery, and knowing the individual horse. In fact, many trainers actually reduce intensity as major competitions approach, focusing on keeping horses physically fit, mentally fresh, and confident in their jobs.
