Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise in space: the European Space Agency approach to in-flight exercise countermeasures for long-duration missions on ISS
Nora Petersen,Nora Petersen,Patrick Jaekel,André Rosenberger,Tobias Weber,Jonathan Scott,Filippo Castrucci,Gunda Lambrecht,Lori L. Ploutz-Snyder,Volker Damann,Volker Damann,Inessa Kozlovskaya,Joachim Mester +12 more
TL;DR: ESA’s individualised approach to in-flight exercise countermeasures is described and an up-to-date picture of how exercise is used to counteract physiological changes resulting from µG-induced adaptation is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical Training for Long-Duration Spaceflight.
James A. Loehr,Mark E. Guilliams,Nora Petersen,Natalie Hirsch,Shino Kawashima,Hiroshi Ohshima +5 more
TL;DR: It is important to understand the operational environment, the agency responsible for the physical training program, and the constraints and limitations associated with spaceflight to accurately design and implement exercise training or interpret the exercise data collected on ISS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postflight reconditioning for European Astronauts - A case report of recovery after six months in space.
Nora Petersen,Nora Petersen,Gunda Lambrecht,Jonathan Scott,Natalie Hirsch,Maria Stokes,Maria Stokes,Joachim Mester +7 more
TL;DR: Despite an intensive inflight exercise programme for this highly motivated crewmember, postflight performance showed impairments at R+6 for most parameters, all of which recovered by R+21 except muscular power (jump tests).
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of physiotherapy in the European Space Agency strategy for preparation and reconditioning of astronauts before and after long duration space flight
Gunda Lambrecht,Nora Petersen,Guillaume Weerts,Casey Pruett,Simon Evetts,Maria Stokes,Maria Stokes,Julie A. Hides,Julie A. Hides +8 more
TL;DR: This clinical commentary outlines the physiotherapy programme, which was developed over nine long-duration missions, and principles of physiotherapy assessment, clinical reasoning, treatment programme design, and progression of the programme are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of exposure to microgravity and reconditioning of the lumbar multifidus and anterolateral abdominal muscles: implications for people with LBP.
Julie A. Hides,Gunda Lambrecht,Christopher Sexton,Casey Pruett,Nora Petersen,Patrick Jaekel,André Rosenberger,Guillaume Weerts +7 more
TL;DR: In-flight exercise countermeasures mitigated, but did not completely prevent, changes in the size and function of the lumbar multifidus and anterolateral abdominal muscles.
