For international Grand Prix dressage rider, trainer, and breeder Lara Edwards, every aspect of her daily routine is finely tuned to optimise performance. From managing her renowned dressage business to competing at the highest levels, Lara understands the importance of maintaining balance, focus, and energy in the saddle. As a long-time advocate of AV Edge products, she has experienced firsthand how they have transformed her riding experience and enhanced the well-being of her horses.
Discovering AV Edge
Lara’s journey with AV Edge began when she first encountered the wristbands and horse patches through a recommendation. Initially intrigued by their potential to improve balance and focus, she decided to give them a try. The results were immediate and undeniable.
"I’ve been using AV Edge wristbands and I always wear one while riding. They help me feel more balanced, focused, and in control. It’s become an essential part of my daily routine."
The Impact on Performance
As a professional dressage rider, maintaining balance and precision is crucial. Lara credits the AV Edge wristbands for their ability to recalibrate her body’s natural energy flow, helping her stay centered during training and competition.
"Dressage is all about harmony and precision, and the wristbands give me that extra edge. I feel more connected to my horse, more stable in the saddle, and I can focus better on the finer details of my performance."
Supporting Equine Well-Being
Beyond her personal experience, Lara has seen significant benefits in her horses’ performance and behavior through the use of AV Edge horse patches.
"I put AV Edge horse patches on the bridles of all my horses and it’s amazing how much calmer and more focused they are, whether we’re training at home or competing internationally."
She has noticed improvements in areas such as:
- Reduced spooking and anxiety: Horses that were previously nervous or distracted during competitions now exhibit greater calmness and focus.
- Enhanced balance and mobility: The patches support better movement and overall well-being.
- Faster recovery: After intense training sessions, her horses appear more relaxed and ready to perform again.
Scientifically Supported Technology
Lara’s trust in AV Edge products is backed not only by her personal experience but also by scientific validation. A double-blind study conducted by Dr. Mark Bull PhD demonstrated measurable improvements in performance for golfers using AV Edge wristbands. The findings, including increased club head speed and improved acceleration, suggest potential benefits for equestrians in optimising movement.
A Holistic Approach to Rider and Horse Wellness
Lara appreciates AV Edge’s holistic approach to wellness. The wristbands and patches provide a non-invasive, natural solution for addressing common challenges faced by equestrians, such as:
- Enhancing focus and mental clarity
- Managing physical fatigue
- Improving balance and posture
- Supporting emotional well-being during high-pressure competitions
"Riding at this level requires me to be at my best, both mentally and physically. AV Edge helps me achieve that without relying on invasive solutions or temporary fixes."
