A rotating station would also be really cool to try out long term Lunar and Martian gravity closer to home. Out bodies kinda hate 0G, but what about 1/6 or 1/3 G?
Nah, crank that bad boy up for 10g, get some resistance training done!
Calm down, Goku
Imagine a rotating stick space station where the G forces get progressively higher the further out you are
The most elite CrossFit gym of all time
I think even a small amount of gravity will prevent all the fluid buildup issues because even if it's low, having gravity means you can walk and apply pumping pressure on your fluids with your legs. The bone density issues will happen slowly unless you can get a cyclotron 1g occasionally.
