The human skeletal system is built to support your weight. Once you have no weight, it stops functioning correctly. Astronauts coming home from the MIR space station had significant bone deterioration after their 6 month stay in space. M uscles don't work as well either, very little energy used to lift stuff in a weightless environment.

Does space travel effect the skeletal system?
Yes. Prolonged space flight, like on board the space station, can affect the bones density and strength. With the micro gravity of space, the bones do not need to be as strong as they do on earth, because they aren't carrying the weight like they do here. The become weaker. To combat this, the astronauts exercise with some weight resistance to simulate gravity.
