This depends on what you feel is "a lot." A horse should probably be given a light workout for about half an hour three to four days a week, and worked hard for an hour or so two days a week.

Usually the horse should be lounged before riding. For a horse that gets a little 'bucky' when you first start to ride this is a safe solution. Unless you use lounging as a cool-down I don't see the benefit of exercising a tired horse.

If you had a bad fall of a horse how do you boost your confidance?

Ok well as the saying goes get back on the horse. If riding is something that you are serious about the feeling to ride will overpower your fear of falling off again and if that's not the case and you still feel insecure about riding ride an older or more relaxed horse that is somewhat to easy for you to be riding and eventually you will feel comfortable riding again!
