Isn't it crazy how riding makes joints you didn't know exist achy or fatigues muscles in just a few seconds? I am so excited you are taking lessons!

Would love to see more posts on training of the fat rider and the training and care of the fat horse. Many of us larger folk ride draft and draft crosses. When you "go big or go home" things are more difficult. Focusing on tips for selection of the best trainers, riding instructors, farriers,vets, tack, feed,etc, geared to the large size horse would be extra helpful to those of us venturing into the larger side of horse life for the first time. Advice on how to deal with snarky comments from the individuals at the barn who think the only type of horse worthy of attention is a thoroughbred and the only person who should be riding weighs 95 lbs is always welcome and appreciated, too!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956677452983748314.post-47740723796363368632012-02-02T11:18:28.581-04:002012-02-02T11:18:28.581-04:00I had my first lesson after 4 months off from ridi...I had my first lesson after 4 months off from riding and I was sore too!! I go to the gym at minimum 2 days a week BUT nothing works your inner thighs like riding a horse. My lesson was on Sunday, it's now wednesday, and I'm STILL a little sore! Pathetic! My next lesson is on Saturday and I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!Lizzyhttp://www.eighteenhands.comnoreply@blogger.com
