This investigation was designed to study the long term effect of combined hypokinesia and hypoxia on the skeletal muscle. In the muscles of the hypoxic and hypokinetic animals, serious degenerative changes were found and the fibre type ratio was alterated. The malate dehydrogenase activity was decreased, and both LDH and MDH isoenzymes pattern were alterated.
