Before you can start jumping, you need to be able to control your horse at all speeds while just riding. before you start jumping, you should trot your horse over poles spaced about 10 feet or more feet apart to help your horse get used to adjusting its stride. when you do start jumping, you'll want to start out fairly low, like 1 foot, to get your horse used to it.

I've been show jumping for years. Over the years I find a horse with a good joint supplement and a icey hot rub down after jumping seem to do the best. I also dont jump my horse more then two days a week for no more then 1hr at a time, with a good warm up. As you must know jumping is hard on the horse and they need all the care form you to keep feeling good into there late teens.

If there is an issue where your horse comes up lame while jumping then you need to have the vet out to take a look at the horse to see what the issue is. Not all horses are capable of jumping as it puts enormous strain on their tendons, ligaments, muscles and bones. Your horse may have an old injury that will not allow it to jump, or to jump as much as you would like to. In any case if the horse comes up lame repeatedly then you likely will not be able to use that horse for jumping any longer.
