Posting Trot in Horse Riding

In horse riding, a mastery of the slower, sitting trot can lead to an approach of the posting trot, which allows the horse to open its stride and cover more ground. Learn about using the posting trot as a warm-up with help from a riding instructor in this video on posting trots in horse riding.

You should have mentioned diagonals as well, that's a good thing to be aware of even when beginning to learn posting. When the horse's outside leg comes forward, you should be up, and when that leg is back, you should be down.

If any of you guys were having trouble like I was with diagonals, this is the tecnique you should use. Just look at the outside leg. If you are rising at your highest point when the horses' outside leg is forward, you are correct. See how the rider's knee kid of pops at 0:32?
