EFFECTS OF GRAVITY – NASA
A negative consequence of weightlessness is the effect zero-gravity has on the cardiovascular system. On Earth, the heart must operate against gravitational pressure to sustain blood flow. Under zero-gravity conditions, that force is absent, causing the heart to lessen its pace according to the decreased demands.
Bone deterioration as a result of zero-gravity is extremely deleterious to an astronaut’s health. This deterioration occurs when the amount of physical stress on bones decreases. Studies have shown that stresses (like the stress of bearing a body in the presence of gravity) actually stimulate bone formation and strengthen bones by increasing bone density. Bone loss and demineralization occur when the force of gravity is reduced or non-existent.
Another effect of weightlessness on human physiology is muscle loss. Similar to bone deterioration, muscles atrophy as a result of disuse. In space, actions and movement require considerably less exertion because the force of gravity is practically non-existent. As a result, astronaut’s muscles become deconditioned.
MUSCLE COMPRESSION – International Journal of Exercise Science
Recent research has found that by compressing blood flow to working muscle during lower body exercise involving short bouts of walk training results in an increased muscle volume and improved quadriceps strength. However, the effects of vascular restriction (VR) during walking on neuromuscular adaptations as assessed by electromyography (EMG) activity may provide insight on how low intensity training with vascular restriction can be applied to various modes of exercise.
