FIT Exercise in 30d of ULLS-induced Muscle Disuse (NCT06631053)
Use of Velocity Monitoring to Prescribe Appropriate Flywheel-based Inertial Training (FIT) Workloads for Exercise in Space Flight
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study aims to determine how flywheel-based inertial training (FIT) implemented according to principles of velocity-based training (VBT) and High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) affects disuse-induced physical de-conditioning including loss of voluntary muscle strength, aerobic capacity, and balance regulation.
Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (2 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (18 items).
Location: University of Kentucky — Lexington, Kentucky
Age range: 35 Years to 45 Years
