Stress and recovery assessment during simulated microgravity: Effects of exercise during a long-term head-down tilt bed rest in women Michel Nicolas, Karine Weiss Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the effects of a 60-day head-down tilt long-term bed rest (HDT) on stress and recovery in sixteen healthy female volunteers. Participants were randomly assigned to either an exercise group (Exe) that followed a training program combining resistive and aerobic exercises, or to a no-exercise control group (Ctl).
