[Comparative Analisys of Efficacy of Countermeasure Provided by Different Modes of Locomotor Training in Space
Abstract:
According to the results of the experiment performed on the ISS with participation of 15 Russian cosmonauts was fulfilled the comparative analysis of two models of preventive measures used by the Russian members of the long term space flight: the intense interval training in the aerobic-anaerobic zone power (recommended model) and the continuous low-intensity exercise in the aerobic zone energy power of the muscle activity. The interval trainings in the conditions of the space flight have provided the maintenance of the level of physical performance close to the preflight level; characterized by the maximum running speed, physiological value of work and lactate level after a standard load. The putative mechanisms of counteraction to adaptive remodeling of the propulsion system in zero gravity and enhanced understanding of the laws governing the interaction of the human body with the gravitational field of the Earth are described in the paper. The research results presented in the article show the high preventive efficacy of interval training compared with regular aerobic trainings, what is very important now in the time of searching of the means and methods of prevention of hypogravitation alterations during the interplanetary missions.

What is a Mode?
There can be more than one mode in a data set if multiple values have the same highest frequency. For instance, suppose that the Statistics exam scores of 20 students are: 50; 53; 59; 59; 63; 63; 72; 72; 72; 72; 72; 76; 78; 81; 83; 84; 84; 84; 90; 93. Here, the mode is 72, as it occurs most frequently, five times.
A data set with two modes is called bimodal. For example,...
