The goal of this single arm, interventional monocentric clinical trial is to investigate the physiological effects of a combination of head-down bedrest and caloric restriction on the human body. A set of measurements will assess the changes in the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, hematological, immune, neurological, cognitive and metabolic systems, in 10 healthy male volunteers. The main question it aims to answer is: what are the physiological responses to fasting in a microgravity environment? In an exploratory study such as this one, where many physiological systems are explored, it is difficult to select a single important endpoint. However, given the known effect of both caloric restriction and head-down bedrest on muscle loss, and its critical importance for the success of space missions, lean body mass, as assessed by DEXA, was chosen as the primary endpoint. The secondary endpoints are: * Cardiovascular, muscular, neuro-vestibular and neuropsychological functional performance * The onset of clinical symptoms and biological changes Participants will be exposed to a microgravity analog model (head down bed rest) and controled caloric restriction environment for 10 days, multiple physiological assessments will be performed during this period. Followed by a rehab period before leaving the study.

The objective of this study is to investigate whether a cycling exercise coupled with artificial gravity via a short-arm human centrifuge helps to prevent and / or reduce the deleterious effects induced by 60 days of anti-orthostatic bedrest. The secondary objective is to investigate whether the combination of a supine cycling exercise with artificial gravity is more effective than the same supine cycling exercise alone in preventing or reducing the effects of head-down bedrest. During a randomized, 60 day bed rest study, in 24 healthy male adults, the two following aims will be undertaken: * Fourteen scientific protocols will assess the changes in the cardiovascular, metabolic, musculoskeletal, neuro-sensorial, haematological, and immunological systems. * In the above-mentioned systems, the comparative potential beneficial effects of the two countermeasure protocols will also be investigated by the scientific protocols and bedrest standard measurements (BSM).
