Here is the Penguin suit used by the Russians in the Space Station
Another special feature of the Russian program is the TNK V-1, or "Penguin suit" (see figure 3). This is a costume with rubber bands woven into the fabric, extending from the shoulders to the hip and further to the feet. This applies a constant resistance to the muscles involved, which also allows for eccentric contraction. The axial loads a "Penguin suit" can provide is reported to be either 50 per cent of body weight on earth (Rambaut & Goode, 1985; Convertino, 1990) or 70 per cent (Bachl et al., 1993;
Convertino, 1996), but the exact loads have never been tested (Convertino, 1996). The cosmonauts wear the suit for eight to twelve hours a day, and also during the performance of any exercises.
Trekkies will be aware of the jumpsuits worn on the Starships
