New page

Because of the low Martian [[gravity]] the muscles are utilized inadequately by daily duties. Additional '''Physical exercise''' must be organized every day.

==Effects on the [[human]] body==

*Stimulates the [[immune system]]
*Helps to prevent certain types of diabetes by influencing the metabolism
*Prevents cardiovascular diseases
*Prevents arthritis
*[[morale|Lift spirits]] by generating endorphins

==Energy generation==
Physical exercise can be combined with the generation of [[energy]]. There are many possible ways to generate [[electricity]]. A [[dynamo]] should be built in every stationary bicycle. [[Piezoelectricity|Piezoelectric]] elements can be a part of some exercise equipment. [[Compressed air]] can be produced by connected mechanical air pump.

 Depending upon the [[settlement]] layout the dwellers may be forced to walk long distances and use stairs for their routine duties. Long distances for walking could occur within a system of [[artificial cave]]s.  Walking alone may not be sufficient and the settlers may be require to go through a complex routine of exercises to stimulate all muscles.
