Horseback exercise. A kind of exercise, advisable in many diseases, although improper in others -in uterine affections, for instance. It has been much recommended in phthisis pulmonalis. It is less fatiguing than walking, and consequently more available in disease. But to prevent disease, where much exercise is required, the latter is preferable.
