∙ 12y agoAll depends on the person working out. People burn calories faster or slower depending on their weight. For example if you weigh 100 pounds and another guy weighs 200 pounds he will burn twice as many calories as you. That's why you here of people who are like 400 + pounds losing like 200 pounds after 9 months of working out.

∙ 11y agoAn average size horse (1,000lb) should intake around 15,000 calories per day. They should be getting a good amount of those calories from forage (hay/grass). But if that horse is in a good work program his daily caloric intake will probably need to be increased to about 25,000 calories per day. But this also depends on their breed also...if they are typically a "hard keeper" already or not.

∙ 12y agoRiding a horse that is trotting is a lot of work. You are constantly moving up and down over the saddle. Your arms get a real workout just holding the reins and moving them side to side to 'steer' the horse.
Even when the horse is walking, your back muscles are constantly flexing so that your back is vertical.
In a canter or gallop, the muscles in the rider's complete body are exercising hard. If you have ever seen a jockey after even a mile and a half race, you can see that s(he) is exhausted. And jockeys are in wonderful shape!

Horse Riding?
There are many different types of adventure sports to enjoy. Adventure sports range from surfing, to backpacking, skiing and different types of horseback riding. Horseback riding is a very traditional adventure sport. Before you begin your horseback riding adventure, you must decide what type of riding appeals most to you. Different styles or disciplines of horseback riding require different kinds of equipment, instruction and venues. Some of the most popular forms of horseback riding are Western style riding and English Dressage. Western style horseback riding is the most popular form of riding in the American Southwest. One of the hallmarks of Western style riding is the large saddle and horn to grab onto when the horse starts trotting or galloping. The stirrups are also quite large, which enables a novice rider to keep his or her feet more firmly planted in the stirrups. Cowboys in the Old West traditionally ride their horses Western Style. This form of horseback riding is very easy to learn and is a great way to take day trips into the wilderness on horseback. Western Style riding is also a popular competitive form of riding. There are a number of Western Style competitions that an adept rider can enter into during the summer months in the American Southwest. The prize for winning these competitions comes in both the form of money and fame. The horse riding style of Dressage is an English horseback riding discipline. This style of horseback riding is based on traditional European techniques of guiding a horse through a series of intricate maneuvers, such as through posts, around poles and over long and short jumps, as the rider and horse travel along a pre-determined course. Dressage techniques are usually practiced in a formal riding ring or on an established riding course. A dressage rider will learn to use his or her hands, feet and voice to work with and guide the horse along a challenging dressage course. Many dressage riders compete in competitions that increase in levels of difficulty with each ensuing win. The judges of a dressage competition evaluate both the rider and the horse for smoothness through the transitions, contact, relaxation and overall performance. This form of horseback riding is extremely disciplined and precise. A rider who loves an exacting form of competition will thoroughly enjoy the adventure of ascending levels of competitive mastery required to be an excellent dressage rider.
