Abstract

Long-term manned spaceflight missions lead to a significant reduction in the performance of the cardiovascular system and loss of muscle mass and bone density. Daily exercise training in weightlessness can mitigate but not completely prevent deconditioning. Future long-duration missions and voyages to the Moon or Mars therefore need more effective countermeasures to maintain crew's physical performance. Using a human centrifuge, DLR is investigating new training modalities under artificial gravity. Current studies show a good tolerability of endurance and strength exercises during rotation on the centrifuge, which will be further developed and tested as a potential countermeasure also in the context of ESA bed rest studies.
