Performance problems become even more apparent when excessive tension develops unilaterally, meaning more to one side than the other. Some signs of this are:

Refusal to put more weight on a particular hind limb, and resistance to moving on a circle in one direction or the other.

Inability or unwillingness to canter on a particular lead.

Refusal or unwillingness to pick up the foot for cleaning or the farrier (ruling out neurological conditions such as stringhalt, see p. 136).

The horse may appear unsound with no apparent cause.

Or, he may seem imbalanced or excessive tension allowed to remain for too long leads to lameness issues in the joints, tendons and ligaments of the hind limbs.
