Scenes from "Living and Working in Space"

Skylab Crewmember on Exercise Ergometer

If the movie does not automatically play, click here

Captions:

The seat and the restraint harness for this ergometer were removed because exercise posture and force-balancing requirements were different in space than had been expected.

Pedaling forces the crewmember's head towards the ceiling.

An improvised head pad worked better than the harness designed to hold the body seated.
