Developing the Athlete: Athlete? My horse? Yes, the horse you use is an athlete! Donna Witt Preskitt of the 5W Ranch, Underwater Treadmill, through her “whole-horse” program can build an athlete “possessing the natural or acquired traits of strength, agility, and endurance that are necessary in competitive contexts,”[1] such as western pleasure, dressage, hunter jumper, cutting, working cow horse, barrel racing, halter, track racing, reining, etc. The 5W Ranch utilizes a unique, customized, state-of-the-art hydrotherapeutic exercise and conditioning device known as the Underwater Treadmill. The Underwater Treadmill is in-ground, 54' long with a 12' stainless steel treadmill housed in a fully-enclosed, climate-controlled environment for year-round operation. The water is appropriately heated to complement the weather. The Underwater Treadmill was built as a permanent, in-ground structure custom-designed and built to Donna Witt Preskitt’s specifications. The flooring is a steady, cushioned surface with all wall and rail corners rounded for the safety of the horses. Handlers are protected by steel railing that allows full access to horses at all times. The operational machinery is located in an underground, sound-proof storage unit. ~ Purnia Mills Donna say's "It is the only feed on the market that consistently provides the high-quality nutrition demanded by the athletes developed on the underwater treadmill. Through the nutrition provided by Purina Mill® and the use of the underwater treadmill, I can make a guaranteed, measureable improvement in 30 days."
