How many calories do you think are burned riding a horse at a walk and trot for an hour. I also do lots of dressage leg work and feel the burn after.

    I believe it's in the database. Have you tried to log "horseback riding"?

    Ive gone through and added some horse riding activities, just search for Horse Riding - the calories burnt are based on a 155lb person, which is close enought for me. Ive added walk, trot, canter/gallop, and jumping :)
    I agree with you though about dressage work - legs feel the burn!
    I got the info here http://www.ultimatehorsesite.com/info/caloriesburned.html
