A 3000 year old fitness program for horses offers modern trainers the chance to save some
time and money. The program was named after its creator, the Master Mitannian Horse Trainer Kikkuli, whose techniques helped establish a military empire just about 1345 BC.
Performance horses and race horses as a whole continue to be trained by tired old conventional methods. Race times for horses have barely improved in the last few decades (unlike the great improvement in times for human athletes) and lameness disqualifies possibly
outstanding endurance horses and eventers at the beginning of their careers.
Modern science has not provided us with a test to determine performance potential in the primitive horse. Millions of dollars are wasted every year on horses which do not do the grade.
It's time to go back to the ancient training methods of the Mitannians, a horsemaster race of folk whose methods have survived now in the Kikkuli Text.
The Kikkuli Text, a horse training text geological dating to c. 1345 B.C., caused the Hittites to become a powerful "Empire" whose war horses surpassed all others. Hittite horses had to march hard for 4 weeks to the battlefields then gallop all day in battle.
The Hittites noninheritable the services of Kikkuli, a master horse trainer from the land of Mitanni, to train the Hittite horses for war. Kikkuli recorded the Mitannian training in detail and this is acknowledged as the "Kikkuli Text". The Mitannians were the acknowledged world leaders in horse training.
In 1991, then doctorial student Ann Nyland - an Arabian stock breeder and endurance rival - translated the Kikkuli Text, which was written on 4 clay tablets in Hittite cuneiform, into English. On Gregorian calendar month
1991, Ann started a replication of the Kikkuli Text regime with ten Arabian horses, the breed used by the Hittites. The training programme set down by Kikkuli lasts for seven months and the training regime and feeding programme were followed precisely.
The methods used in the Kikkuli Text change modern horses to be trained without injury. One of Kikkuli's techniques was to use long periods leading the horses at the trotting and ride horseback
gaits rather than riding them (or harnessing them). The use of long periods of leading in the 1st half of training strengthens horses without straining them.
By following the manual set down in the Kikkuli Text, you wish be able to produce a superb equine jock without the use of drugs or big-ticket feed additives. Your horse wish remain sound and not subject to frequent bouts of lameness. Above all, your horse wish be happy and confident in its work, thus producing its maximum performance for you.
However, galore folk did not want to put their horses through the whole 7 months of Kikkuli training, so wanted to cognize the Kikkuli principles they could follow in their general training. As a result, Ann Nyland revised the book to concentrate on the Kikkuli principles, nice for anyone to follow, especially busy people. She revised the book and discharged it in 2006 as an Ebook.
