I really think you are trying to scale the wrong thing if you are trying to keep Martians at ST 10.

I second this, it would seem that in an environment with a lower gravity then earth the native inhabitants would require less ST in general and hence have lower hit points. So a typical Terran will seem much stronger and tougher than a typical Martian, also on Mars a Terran will seem a lot stronger than he normally is on Earth and on Earth a Martian will seem a lot weaker than he is on Mars.
This works whether you are talking about native (alien) Martians that have evolved on Mars or whether you mean human settlers on Mars, for evolution is just a case of being adjusted to the environment and for humans it’s a case of
Wolff’s Law and similar principles that apply to muscle.
