Instructions: Select ONE option per meal (A = Indian, B = Global). This endurance protocol is engineered for long-distance runners and triathletes. It focuses heavily on maximizing muscle and hepatic glycogen stores through complex carbohydrates, while providing moderate proteins to prevent muscle catabolism during extended aerobic output.  |  Hydration: Consume 5–7 litres of fluid daily. Sodium and potassium loss is extreme in distance running. Use electrolyte powders pre, intra, and post-run to prevent severe cramping.  |  Fats: Fats are kept moderate to ensure rapid gastric emptying prior to training, while still providing enough joint lubrication and anti-inflammatory Omega-3s.
