What Exercises Help To Reduce The Discomfort Caused While Stretching The Legs?
I love riding horses but I find that I have a hard time getting my leg over his back when mounting. It s also a difficult sitting on a horse. Could this be a hip problem or muscle issue? If muscle, are there any exercises you could recommend doing? I m 66 and have rode for years but hardly at all in the last ten years due to the discomfort when riding and difficulty mounting.
