alicexxxsitting on a horse isnt that hard work

Emmy:)hiSport but not very hard... I love it though

Crazychic123But it's still a sport u don't have to have hard work for something to b a sport

alicexxxa sport is exercise and it doesnt take much to sit on a horse

Crazychic123@alicexxx so u still have to watch the horse and control him or her

alicexxxYeah i know have ridden for 4 years but it seriously isnt difficult

Crazychic123@alicexxx but I still think it's a sport

😄Sudsy😄@Crazychic123 agree sport I've had 7-8 horses and I loved them all but my mum said I liked the horses and not the riding As much

Hey, it's just me 🙈I do horse riding it's amazing <3

Directionner4everHorse riding isn't just sitting down!! It's really hard work! 😤😤

airiHehe love all these comments, my opinion is yes it is a sport, but then again I've had horses and been riding 18 years! And @alicexxx it is hard work, but thats only if you ride correctly, properly, use the correct muscles, don't let the horse/pony carry you. The thing about riding is that you 'work with' the horse and not let the horse carry you around, do the work for you, or force the horse into submission et cetera. I could talk about horses for hours and I could argue for days and days about whether or not riding is easy and you 'just sit there' it is sooooo much more to it that sitting on a horse. That my dear is called plodding about, but actual 'riding' means that both you and the horse work in harmony together, create a bond, a partnership. Okay I'm going to stop there before I rant even more. But then again, I have never seen you 'ride' so I can't judge your ability, and you can't judge mine or others :)
