The Russian Mir space station had a treadmill on board that benefited both cosmonauts and U.S. guest astronauts. Here Shannon Lucid works out in 1996, while John Blaha, who was replacing her on the Mir crew, studies a daily planner.

Wow! NASA has it going on! LOL.
Looking at this I can't help to think
how acceptionally cool if people
that were non-astronauts (you know, land-lovers) could have
access to something like this as
an awesome form of physical therapy for those that are striving
hard to regain their health and strength back; maybe call it an ATB
(AN Air Therapy Box). If something
such as this already out there, I'd
like to know; or if someone is
interested in designing such, I'd be
honored to assist, as much as
possible. Who knows maybe in the
future this could cut down many
excuses for not exercising. How
cool would that be?
