Fig. 3From: Monitoring training response in young Friesian dressage horses using two different standardised exercise tests (SETs)Training response assessed by SETA and SETB. Training response was shown by comparing SET BLA results of week 8 with BLA in week 0. SET BLA levels after both canter 1 and after canter 2 are shown. Mean BLA and SD are depicted and significant differences (P < 0.05) are marked by an asterix. Both SETs were compared and it was shown that SETA could distinguish a positive training response sooner, already in week 6, than SETB, which could only show a positive training response in week 8Back to article page
