We investigated the effects of different frequencies of treadmill running on immobilization-induced soleus and gastrocnemius muscle atrophy and ankle joint contracture in rats using morphology and histochemistry. The right ankle joint of rat was immobilized for 2 weeks. Thereafter, the rats were randomly assigned to four groups for 6 weeks of exercise under different conditions: free cage activity and free remobilization (FR), once-a-week treadmill running (low-frequency running program (LFR)), three-time-a-week running (middle-frequency running program (MFR)), and six-time-a-week running (high-frequency running program (HFR)) groups. Two weeks of immobilization significantly reduced the cross-sectional area of soleus type I (62%, P
