Or at least elastic-band exercise equipment.

I think "Dingy" Harry Reid has a disused piece that NASA could examine on how not to implement bands.

That wouldn’t work over the long term. Space has a lot of problems that can be fixed but with not-so-easy solutions. Spinning can simulate gravity, an easy fix. Magnetic fields can deflect solar radiation, a slightly harder fix. A lot of mass, about 10 tons per square foot, can deflect most cosmic rays. A much harder fix. After that, you have to deal with the longer term solutions to living in space. Food, water, and air.
