“…earth-like). Similarly, dynamic exercises during HDT can temporarily increase HR and leg blood volume [1]. These findings motivate the development of lower limb wearable devices that can provide astronauts with antigravity muscle loading for extended periods of time, potentially limiting the reduction of blood pressure they experience in the microgravity environment.…”

“…The intensity of the exercises was defined as a combination of: (1) resistive force of the leg-press, F; (2) frequency of the leg-press movements, f; (3) duration of the exercise phase, T. We tested two values for each of these factors (see here [1] for details), for a total of eight intensities and corresponding experimental sessions. In these sessions, MARCOS did not apply any force during baseline and recovery, so that no muscle contraction was required to maintain leg extension (i.e.…”

“…Other studies conducted simulations on Earth that included the use of Lower Body Positive Pressure (LBPP) (Cutuk, 2006; Evans et al, 2013; Schlabs et al, 2013), parabolic flights (Pletser, 2004; Pletser et al, 2012; Widjaja et al, 2015), and head-down tilt (HDT) and head-up-tilt (HUT) paradigms (Lathers et al, 1990, 1993; Louisy et al, 1994; Pavy-Le Traon et al, 1997; Kostas et al, 2014; Baranov et al, 2016). However, few of these hypogravity simulation experiments have studied the effects of exercise (Richter et al, 2017), and those that did focused on walking and running tasks (Cutuk, 2006; Schlabs et al, 2013; Pavei et al, 2015; Pavei and Minetti, 2016), or anaerobic training (Alessandro et al, 2016).…”
