Mar 6, 2016 at 16:27 comment added Rick 0xfff To elaborate on my answer a bit, the question asked about doing isometric exercises against immovable objects. In essence, the immovable object cannot be the ISS structure itself because of vibration concerns. It would have to be something that isolates the ISS from the vibration, such as TVIS.

Mar 6, 2016 at 14:53 comment added Jagra This treadmill reminds me of all the money NASA spent to develop the famous zero-gravity "space pen" during the early days of the manned program. They could write upside down! The Soviets used pencils.
