Abstract
Background and Objective: Both low vitamin D status and systemic inflammation are associated with reduced sleep quality and can be affected by exercise. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of high-intensity resistance training (HIIT) and vitamin D intake on sleep quality and high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) in inactive young women with vitamin D deficiency
Materials and Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted on 52 overweight women with low vitamin D status. Subjects were first selected by available sampling method and then randomly selected and placed in four groups: control, exercise, vitamin D and combined. HIIT was performed in three sets and 6 repetitions with an intensity of 80% one maximum repetition with a 20-second rest, which was carried out by lifting the same weight and another 20-second rest, until reaching exhaustion. Vitamin D was taken weekly with a dose of 50,000 units. Pittsburgh questionnaire was used to measure sleep quality.
Results: The results showed that hs-CRP levels and sleep quality scores decreased after 8 weeks of  HIIT and vitamin D consumption and combined intervention, and the combined intervention was associated with a greater effect in reducing these variables compared to the other two interventions (P<0.05).
Conclusion: It seems that HIIT and consuming vitamin D can help to improve the quality of sleep in the state of vitamin D deficiency with excess weight by adjusting the levels of hs-CRP, and the combined intervention is associated with more effects.
