Hey everybody. I don't know if there are any other horse people out there, there's such a wide variety of folks on here, I thought somebody might be able to help me!

My question is, how many calories do you think longeing a green horse uses? This of course isn't on caloriesperhour.com! :tongue: I have two young horses that I work on a longe line, and being green, there's a lot of tug-of-war and running after them involved!

Anyway, I know it's exercise, because after an hour of it, I'm ready to drop.

Thanks for any ideas! :flowerforyou:

    Wow good question. I would guess it'd be about the same as "weight traning", since i'm sure your using every muscle in your body!
