Onboard physical training in weightless environment: A review / 解放军医学杂志

ABSTRACT

With the advancement of manned space science and technology,the scope of human exploration into outer space has been gradually expanded.The time and distances that astronauts flight on-board are becoming longer and longer.However,long-term microgravity can negatively affect astronauts' physical and psychological aspects,thus influencing their health and leading to the failure of work tasks,and even threatening their lives.This paper reviews USA,Russia and Europe research results in the field of astronauts on-board physical training methods and health protection measures,with the purpose of learning from their successful experience.Overall,it is suggested that for cross complementation in sport science,we should make the introduction of advanced and successful training systems to solve problems existing in astronauts on-board training,ensuring the maintenance of health.
