When riding a horse, you use your stomach muscles, your theigh and calf muscles, and your bicep muscles. ^^ yes this is correct however more detailed.... ^^ · The abdominals are used for balance and the centre of control, as by using the abdominals to shift the hips to either side signals that the horse should move in a certain direction. · The calves (or gastronomies) are rested against the horses sides however are used for delivering aids as by applying pressure you are able to turn the horse or ask them to speed up. · The psoas and iliopsoas hold the torso vertical when riding to stop you falling behind the line of gravity which is behind the hipjoints. · The thighs (or quadriceps) are used to grip to the saddle in canter, lots of different muscles that are part of the thigh are used when riding… · The Tensor Fascia Latae Muscles which turn the thighs inwards and open the hips so that the rider is able to sit comfortably and grip to the horse. · The Vastus Lateralis and the Vastus Medialis which both extend the leg, these allow the rider to rise in the trot. · The Rectus Fermoris-this flexes the thigh and extends the leg so that the rider can lift up out of the saddle in jumping etc and also rise in trot. · Because the leg is constantly bent when riding, the thigh needs to grip, the parts of the thigh which allow this to happen are the Gracilis, the Adductor Longus, Pectieneus and the Sartorius. ·

Why would horses help you get exercise?
When you are riding horses, muscles that you never work or use in daily life and even at the gym are used.
