Nice start. In terms of space travel, cryogenics and muscle function, there is such a thing as Electrical Muscle Stimulation and Peripheral Neuromuscular Facilitation that is currently used for people with muscle wasting disorders such as MS. These two techniques might be able to be combined and incorporated within a cryo chamber to reduce muscle wastage and increase baseline muscle function. Also it is worth saying that one loses about 40% muscle power and fibre recruitment after 72 hours of complete bedrest so by 2 weeks walking would be difficult... Good info if you plan to write about space travel in the future! But looking forward to the rest of this series.
