The benefits of flywheel training for seniors is not a new ground-breaking discovery. One of the earlier scientific studies to take note of this was one conducted by NASA when contemplating the use of flywheel technology as a means to maintain physical well being of astronauts on extended missions in micro gravity. The physiology scientists behind the study pointed out that the insights gained could also benefit Earth-based applications, particularly in managing conditions like osteoporosis and sarcopenia in older and sedentary individuals.
