3 Shortcuts in Your Riding a Pivo Can Help You See & Change

Daily Strides Podcast for Equestrians

Have you ever felt like you’re doing “all the right things” in the saddle - yet not really making progress? Chances are, there might be a few riding shortcuts sneaking into your sessions. And if you're training without a regular instructor… those shortcuts can go unnoticed for weeks or even months.

That’s where Pivo comes in.

In this episode, I'm sharing three of the most common shortcuts riders take—and how using Pivo to film short clips of your rides can help you spot, fix, and finally move past them.

Whether you ride alone or just want to get more from your time in the saddle, this episode will show you how to turn video into your most trusted training partner.

🔍 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

✅ Why rushing or zoning out during your warm-up is holding you back ✅ How to spot “helicopter riding” and give your horse space to learn ✅ The powerful (and overlooked) role transitions play in your training ✅ How to use Pivo to track your rides and train your eye as a rider ✅ Why video is the missing link for riders' training solo ✅ My favorite exercise using 3 short clips to review your ride effectively
