Meta-study: vitamin D supplementation boosts muscle strength
Vitamin D not only plays a key role in maintaining bone strength, it also plays an important role in muscle growth. Because almost everyone suffers from a vitamin D deficiency, you'd expect that average people would gain strength if they took extra vitamin D. British sports scientists analysed data from 6 previously published studies and concluded that vitamin D supplementation does indeed boost muscle strength.

Should you ever need to use corticosteroids, it might be worth considering using HMB. According to researchers at Pusan National University in South Korea, HMB can reduce muscle atrophy caused by corticosteroids.
