The OUTTRAKK Exercise Rug is an excellent choice during training or trail riding in winter, since it protects the horse from cool, windy or rainy weather conditions as well as helping to keep the lower back supple and warm.
Back on Track's exercise rugs (or loin rugs) have the dual function of protecting against the elements and reflecting far infrared energy (FIR) generated by the horse's body heat.
This rug also has an eye-catching reflective branch pattern covering the entire surface, making it highly visible in low light conditions. The same shiny pattern recurs as a theme throughout the Outtrakk collection, and the rug will therefore beautifully complement our other items.
The purpose of the rug is to cover the horse's loins and hindquarters before, during and/or after physical activity, in particular during the cold months of the year. This area on the horse's body is a sensitive one that contains joints and muscle groups central to the horse's movements and proper biomechanics.
