    Or, the study was looking at muscle loss in the absence of exercise.

    "Even so, the findings clearly show the need to improve fitness regimes in space so that astronauts are exposed to high-resistance exercise and the kinds of motions they experience on Earth, he said."

    Looks like "improving the already in place fitness regimes" is what this sentence from the article implies.

    They can't improve them enough. The best minds designing exercise plans, very expensive equipment, a lot of hard exercise time each day, highly motivated astronauts...every variable is already maximized.

    This (and other giant problems) is why no one will go to Mars in our lifetimes.

    which would make the article's claims incorrect.

    either you are wrong or they are wrong. if i was to guess, i'd say it's you.
