No, it wouldn't. There is no meaningful way for gravity to be "perpendicular to the usual muscular development". You would orient your head-foot axis to match the direction of the acceleration you feel. Floors and walls in a space habitat would be built in that orientation. Doing otherwise would be just as stupid as lying horizontally on Earth and then complaining that gravity goes the wrong way.

On a side note, they mention one equipment like that in this novel(a hell of a good scifi): The Martian, by Andy Weir. Available for free online, really funny.
