Nutrition for the Muscles: Feeding for Strength

Nutrition for the Muscles: Feeding for Strength

When we ride our horses, we ask for a lot. We expect them to be strong, quick, supple, flexible, agile, and adjustable, all while the weight of a rider and the pressure of a saddle is on their back.

We expect the horse to progress at a certain rate to stay on schedule with training and competition.

Regular training should support the muscles to build and strengthen. To meaningfully support the horse, a targeted nutrition plan and support can help balance this cycle of muscle stress and rebuild by aiding a quick recovery from exercise.

Learn how Myofortil can enhance your training and performance in competition.

What is Myofortil?
Myofortil is a powerful supplement that has been gaining popularity among equine athletes for its fast absorption and ability to help reduce inflammation in horses from everyday riding to tough competition. It offers amino acids, magnesium, Vitamin E, and Vitamin B complex to help our equine athletes with muscle inflammation from riding, training, and competition.
Increased Muscle Strength
A relaxed muscle is a fast and functional muscle. Proper recovery is essential for muscle growth and overall performance. Magnesium encourages muscle relaxation, amino acids help build new muscle, and B vitamins support metabolic processes.
Improved Recovery
After a tough workout or competition, if the recovery cycle is out of balance, the horse may exhibit signs such as soreness, tension, lack of impulsion, poor musculature, lack of energy, stiffness, and unwillingness. Helping to speed up the recovery process, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and selenium help remove lactic acid caused by performance demands. The transport oxygen throughout muscle tissue, allows equine athletes to bounce back faster and get back to training sooner.
Optimized Performance
Myofortil has been an excellent aid for riding horses in my veterinary practice. It contains Vitamin E and Selenium to aid muscle cellular recovery from stress. We have seen it create supple, strong horses with improved rideability who can better succeed at their intended use.

Overall, Myofortil is a game-changer for equine athletes and riders who want to improve their training and competition.

It can be fed alongside the daily vitamin Meganutril and all of the other Equina USA products without over-supplementing. Myofortil is designed to complement your horse's existing nutrition plan, providing additional support for muscle strength, endurance, and recovery without causing any imbalance in their diet. 

With its proven benefits for muscle strength, endurance, and recovery, Myofortil is a must-have supplement for serious athletes.
