WALDHAUSEN Floor work bars 2 pieces

Main features of floor bars

This pack contains two floor work aisles (blue and yellow), each three meters long, measuring 10 cm high and 10 cm wide. Their high-density foam filling with concealed hermetic zipper offers effective protection against dirt and exceptional durability. Thanks to their characteristic square shape, they guarantee maximum stability and won't roll away, even during intensive exercise.

Water-repellent and wear-resistant, floor bars are easy to clean with a damp cloth on any surface. Vacuum-packed, they're light to carry but sturdy to use, with no need for permanent anchoring. The bright blue and yellow colors encourage the horse's attention and make it easy to spot from the ground.

Training benefits for the horse

Exercises on the ground bars significantly improve the horse's coordination and balance by alternately stimulating the limbs. By working on crossing and navigating around the bars, your horse strengthens proprioception and develops better body awareness. The high-density foam absorbs shocks, reducing the risk of injury to limbs during training.

Regular use of the bars encourages suppleness of the back, improves stride and encourages respect for the frame. This gradual progression, from walk to trot to canter, enables harmonious, targeted muscle development. Range of motion improves naturally, as does the horse's cadence and rhythm.

Benefits for riders and training

The versatility of these floor bars saves your training equipment budget. They can be quickly installed on a variety of surfaces: sand, grass or stable floor. Clear visual guidance helps the rider to direct the horse precisely and improve control. You can create courses of 6 meters or more to suit your training needs, easily adapting the configuration to your objectives.

Practical exercises and use cases

Floor bars offer a wide range of exercises to suit all levels. For ground work, use them for slalom courses to hone agility and precision of gait, or organize circle figures to delimit lunging training areas. For jumping work, space out the bars to improve suppleness and jump trajectory.

Under the saddle, these ground bars facilitate dressage exercises such as shoulder-in to reinforce lateral control and rider aids. You can work on lateral neck flexion, straightness and precision on geometric figures. Spaces of 50 cm between sections allow flexible slalom configurations, while the 1-meter spacing is suitable for classic dressage figures.

Use and maintenance

The foam surface provides maximum safety, absorbing shocks and preventing movement even at full speed. Maintenance is simple: a damp cloth is all that's needed, with no specialized equipment required.

Remember to check the integrity of the zipper regularly and clean up after intensive use to preserve the durability of your floor bars. Store them in a dry place to maintain the properties of the foam.
