The Importance of Impact Loading and the Stretch Shortening Cycle for Spaceflight Countermeasures

Pronounced muscle and bone losses indicate that the musculoskeletal system suffers substantially from prolonged microgravity. A likely reason for these detrimental adaptations in the lower extremity is the lack of impact loading and the difficulty to apply large loading forces on the human body in m...
