Veteran Posts: 262	Has anyone ever heard of weak back muscles causing bucking? I was told this by a seller explaining why her horse bucked 3x previously. She said hasn't bucked since riding her more. Have you ever heard of that? This horse was running 2D with former owner who said she never bucked. Horse is 7 yrs old. Any insight would help in deciding if I want to try out horse or not.. Thanks!

However, I will say that I can see how it would be a possible cause that I've never thought of. If I haven't used my back muscles and go to do some work, I'll have some spasms and/or pain if I'm not careful. So that kind of makes sense.
