best way to get fit for horse riding?

22.February, 2009

Other than actually riding a horse, what are the best things I should be doing to improve my fitness levels. Would power walking up and down steep hills be enough?
I am looking at getting up to 3 to 4 hours in the saddle of pretty fast riding, plus some jumping.

To be honest, my friend Sammy. (ahh shez'a legend!)
She got fit by riding horses!
and i don't recall her trying to get fit either lol.

I don't think you'd need to prepare :/
because you'll probably be fit after 2/3 weeks of ridin a horse.
I mean, Sammy has a six pack! :O
:)

Good Luck with it.

Love
Bj&co.

    an hour on a trampoline in the morning and again in the afternoon will improve your balance and stamina, powerwalking is a good idea bt it wont improve the balance that you need for jumping x

    swimming is very good, I go horse riding and also if you get your own horse you will have to mmuck out and It keeps you very fit! I go swimming after everyday at the farm it helps you to relax and loosens all your muscles. Just do a few lengths every night and then soon you will be swimming miles. Hope this helped. If you are embarresed to wear a swimming coustume then dont worry no-onee can see you undder water :) Bye for now. enjoy horse riding x
