Can a horse be ridden every day
Answered By: Malcolm Carter Date: created: Mar 02 2021
You can’t just push and pound every day. Most humans simply can’t run 20 miles day after day, and most horses can’t gallop day after day, or drill the same dressage exercises, or do a demanding jump school, five or six times a week. At least not and stay physically and mentally sound.

A: Technically, your horse is still middle-aged. Horses live about one year for every three years that humans live, so he’s only 51 in human years. Scientists don’t consider horses “aged” or “old” until they turn 20 because we see no signs of deteriorating aerobic ability before then.
