Training Off Syndrome (Off Feed)
Given that the heart, lungs, and limbs are sound
“TRAINING OFF”
is likely to be caused by:
1. Wrong training methods – see Stress and
Recovery time
2. Incorrect nutrition
3. Use of Corticosteroid Injections etc.
4. Imbalances of Minerals and Electrolytes in
Diet.
The latest research has shown that
quicker responses
to demands and shorter
periods required for recovery
after exertion are
influenced by Dietary Electrolyte
Balance.
5. More often than not:
Serum sodium falls
Serum Potassium rises (sometimes falls)
Serum Chlorides fall
Serum bicarbonates- falls or rises
By including THERADIET in the diet, the objective is to remove those factors due to bad nutrition and mineral and electrolyte imbalance which predispose an animal to
‘TRAIN
ING OFF” and antagonises proper conditioning.
Which results in:
L
ower levels of fitness for shorter periods of time and less potential for peak performance during the training period.
Muscles develop at about 5% per week i.e. about 12-20 weeks to bring a horse up.
