NASAConnect™ "Good Stress: Building Better Muscles and Bones "
In this video, students will learn about the importance of building and maintaining better muscles and bones. They will learn that all stresses in life are not “bad.” In fact, the body needs “good” stresses like exercise, to be healthy. Students will also see how scientists and researchers collect and analyze physiological data to understand how muscle and bones are constantly changing, especially in a microgravity environment. Additional resources included.
