Evaluation of the XSENS Force Shoe on ISSThe Advanced Resistive Exercise Device (ARED) offers crewmembers a wide range of resistance exercises but does not provide any type of load monitoring; any load data received are based on crew self-report of dialed in load. This lack of real-time ARED load monitoring severely limits research analysis. To address this issue, portable load monitoring technologies are being evaluated to act as a surrogate to ARED's failed instrumentation. The XSENS ForceShoe"TM" is a commercial portable load monitoring tool, and performed well in ground tests. The ForceShoe "TM" was recently deployed on the International Space Station (ISS), and is being evaluated as a tool to monitor ARED loads.
