If you are riding correctly it should use just about every muscle in you body! It's about the best workout I've ever heard of!

Especially those hard to work muscles of your upper inner leg. Sort of like bench pressing works out your armpit fat. Ha.

In American English, that is called "bareback riding," so perhaps "horseback riding" implies the difference between riding with or without a saddle.
