As an effective physical training method to improve the explosive power of athletes, plyometric training(exercise) has made great contributions to the physical training of Chinese Olympic Teams.However,the way this method is used for astronaut onboard training and the maintenance of human body strength is not yet clear enough.There is no training program or system of astronaut onboard training currently available that uses this training method in China.Based on the analysis of related researches at home and abroad, this paper comprehensively and systematically expounds the principles of plyometric training and research related to athletic performance.The view that this method is used for astronaut onboard training is also proposed innovatively in this paper.The aim of this study is to expand the field of physical training for astronauts and provide reference for the training of weightlessness protection in the field of aerospace in China.

Objective To evaluate the changes of peak segmental and transmural radial displacement (RD) of left ventricle(LV) during acute myocardial ischemia with different LV pacing patterns. Methods Left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was ligated to induce acute myocardial ischemia in open-chest Beagle canine models ( n=10). Two-dimensional gray-scale images with overlaid tissue Doppler velocity imaging in three standard LV short-axis views were acquired with different pacing patterns in a randomized sequence in three complete cardiac cycles. Parameters including peak RD, peak RD time(RD-Tc) ,the standard deviation of TC(RD-TSD) of 12 segments and their myocardial layers(subend,mid,subepi) were measured and analyzed using TDI-Q workstation. Results ① There were no significant differences of peak RD between three myocardial layers of LV wall in each different pacing pattern group;There were no significant difference of peak RD from segments and transmural layers among the different LV pacing patterns. ②With acute myocardial ischemia the RD correlation of LV lateral pacing( LVL-P) and LV border pacing(LVB-P) patterns were higher than that of LV apical pacing(LVA-P) pattern between global segment and its subend, mid, subepi. ③ RD-Tc of 12 LV segments and their subend, mid, subepi appeared after T wave and there were no significant differences of RD-Tc among different LV pacing patterns. ④RD-TSD of the corresponding segments during LVL-P,LVA-P and LVB-P patterns were significant lower than those during acute yocardial ischemia(P<0. 05). Conclusions The existed RD correlation of LVA-P between subend.mid, subepi and the segment were lowest among the different ischemic LV pacing patterns; the synchronization of transmural RD could be recovered partly with LVL-P, LVA-P and LVB-P patterns. The echocardiographic study of LV transmural RD might be useful to reveal the segmental and the transmural myocardial mechanical state with different LV pacing patterns during acute ischemia in detail.
