AIM: Today, reaching the maximum of sports power is the main goal of athletes. This research has investigated the effect of eight weeks of high intensity interval training and vitamin C consumption with a mask on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 in men of the national rowing team.
Method: The research plan includes three groups of subjects with pre-test-post-test and a control group. The statistical population included athletes in the preparatory camp of the national rowing team. The participants include 48 qualified men in the age group of 22 to 27 years. The criteria for entering the research were no history of specific diseases or use of anti-inflammatory supplements and at least 6 years of experience in national team camps. According to the new guidelines of the US Department of Communicable Disease Control (CDC) approved by the Ministry of Health of Iran, N95 or KN95 masks have been introduced as the best protection against COVID-19 and were used in this research. The dosage amount was 500 mg per day/person.
Findings: The findings show that after 8 weeks, there is a significant decrease in hs-CRP in the intermittent intensive + mask + vitamin C groups (Ma + VC group) and intermittent intensive + vitamin C (VC group), but the decrease in the intermittent intensive + vitamin C groups Mask (Ma group) and periodic high intensity (Co control) are not significant (P<0.05). In the post-test stage, in three groups exercise + mask with exercise + vitamin C, exercise + mask + vitamin C with exercise + vitamin C and exercise + mask with exercise; No significant change was observed in the amount of IL-6. Meanwhile, in the rest of the groups, including the mask group - the mask + vitamin C group, the control group - the mask + vitamin C group, and the vitamin C - control group, a significant decrease in the amount of IL-6 was observed (P<0.05).
Conclusion: It seems; Perhaps a longer period of time than exercises is needed to achieve effectiveness, and the use of supplements accelerates its improvement, which is related to the anti-inflammatory role of vitamin C and inhibits the activity of the transcription factor NF-κB and the expression of pro-inflammatory factors such as CRP and IL-6 decreases.
