Working Out in Space (Astronauts Trapped on Space Station)
|
I just stumbled across an article about astronauts trapped on International Space station. They are going to be there until Feb 2025. It kind of reminded me of one of my favorite sci-fi TV shows of all-time. “The Expanse” on Amazon. Here’s what I liked about this show. They really geek-out about proper physics in the show. I love it! My favorite character on the show is Camina Drummer.
She is a beautiful badass women who lives in the asteroid belt. They shows how people living in low-gravity environments, like the Asteroid Belt, develop physical differences compared to those on Earth. The same goes for people on Mars. Mars has 1/3 the gravity of earth, so on the show they show how people from Mars are extremely weak once they visit earth. Their bodies and bones aren’t used to our higher gravity. I love this show and may watch the whole series again. Some people get bored by it since it really develops the plot over time. It’s a deep show. This article about the two people trapped on the space station reminded me about the show. They are lacking gravity up there so they have to train.
If they don’t train hard enough they will be way too weak when they come back to earth. Even worse than the people on Mars in The Expanse tv show. Here’s a quote… The body in space has a natural tendency to adapt to not having gravity, Gilmore says. That includes the “anti-gravity” muscles. Found in the back, the hips, lower back, and legs, these do the most work when you try to get out of bed, or sit, or stand up, he says. Exercises that mimic squats and deadlifts are best for these. They need to work out 6 days per week for 2.5 hours each session. Because space absolutely destroys your muscles and bones if you don't exercise. Here's what their workout looks like:
Honestly… This whole thing reminds me of rucking. I bought a 30 pound ruck sack on Ebay and special ruck plates.
I find the sweet spot for rucking to be about 2-3 times per week. I walk for 30-45 minutes. Sometimes if I have extra energy I’ll do some light Kettlebell swings or snatches ahead of time. But typically only do that maybe once per week. I highly recommend rucking 2-3 times per week if you aren’t doing it. Works really well with my Visual Impact Ageless Workout routine. Now when I walk without the extra 30 pounds I feel like a superhero, LOL. I’ll do my same route without the extra 30 pounds 1 time per week. Probably how the Earthlings in The Expanse feel when they visits “The Belt” or Mars. Give it a shot. I think you will like it! Cheers, -Rusty |

Tomorrow night at 9 PM PST, I'll be shuttting down all the order buttons for all of my courses. Until then, you can grab any of those courses for $10 (links to all 12 courses below). I'm going to renew this list for one more month to buy more time. I can't operate Visual Impact the way it is configured now - But I would hate to lose or sell 18 years of work. I appreciate the support on this $10 sale.This has given me the money to keep the website up indefinitely and the member's site up at...
I shut down the ability to order any of my courses about two weeks ago. I made the decision to shut down the business, but should have given more of a heads-up. I've had people bummed that they weren't able to get some of the courses. Also in my last email, I forgot to thank Yavor. Yavor has been invaluable to Visual Impact. He's been managing all customer service, helping me with graphics and tech stuff over the past 10+ years. He's super positive, calm under pressure, etc. Yavor is a total...
Well, it's been a good run. 🙏🏼 In early 2007, I published my first fitness article online on a website called Ezinearticles.com. That first article did well. So I wrote more. Soon, I had 20-30 articles that were getting read thousands of times each day. I linked out in my bio to my favorite course at the time "Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle" by Tom Venuto (still one of the best fitness courses ever written). I made a commission for each sale of his course. It was a nice $500-$600 per month...
