CORE by D PAD ONLY
Built on well-established principles in equine training and rehabilitation.
Like many innovations in training and rehabilitation, CORE by D is built on established biomechanical principles. The research available today has primarily studied the effect of elastic training bands as a concept. CORE by D is our own development of this principle, with a focus on function, ease of use, and everyday training.

The pad is designed to work seamlessly with the CORE by D training band system, but also fits training bands from other brands, making it a practical upgrade if you're already using a similar system.
Practical features:
- Dirt-repellent surface for easy care
- Quick-dry interior
- Elevated edges for a comfortable fit during work
- Includes clips and buckles for easy attachment
A straightforward way to vary your training setup while keeping your horse comfortable and well-supported.
Why it works + −
CORE by D was developed in close collaboration with veterinarians and equine trainers. The elastic bands provide a gentle sensory signal — encouraging the horse to engage its core and postural muscles naturally, without force or restriction.
Because the horse responds on its own terms, the muscle activation is genuine and builds over time. The result: better posture, improved symmetry and stronger movement — session by session.
