Horse-Riding: Get Fit,
Burn Fat
Fitness and Fat-Burning
Combined
A horse riding workout is
a reasonable way to boost fitness and burn stored body fat. Horse riding
increases the number of calories burned, and - if combined with a calorie-controlled
eating plan - will cause the body to burn it's stored fat - including
abdominal fat. In addition, horse riding helps to develop the lower body
and butt muscles, so you improve fitness and get into shape.
Horse-Riding Improves Fat
Percentage
About 45 minutes of horse
riding burns about 225 calories. In one year, this daily exercise/fitness
workout/routine burns a total of 82,125 calories per year - about 23 pounds
of stored body fat. This fat-burning improves the body's fat-percentage
- the muscle-to-fat ratio.

Health Benefits
Because it helps to burn
body-fat, a regular fitness workout (like horse riding) contributes to
better health in several ways. It helps reduce abdominal fat, associated
with serious illness; it assists weight loss, thus maintaining healthy
cholesterol levels and blood pressure. Finally, it releases endorphins
the happiness chemicals that improve mood. These health benefits are further
increased by a balanced eating-plan.
