Horse exercise machine

misty · Apr 22, 2017

Has anyone got or used one of those machines that simulates riding? Someone is selling one on Facebook and I wondered whether it would be worth helping to build and maintain the correct muscles and balance whilst I'm not riding regularly. It's only the cost of 4 lessons and since I'm not getting them weekly anymore, I can probably easily justify the price. But...is it worth it? Any experience?
Thanks in advance!

An ijoyride? I wouldn't bother. I think they are gimmicky and very unlikely to be effective. Core strengthening exercises you can do with no equipment would probably be more beneficial.

I'd rather be riding.
