4. Execution Notes
- Hydration on Fasts: With the 10K training ramping up, you MUST drink 4-5 liters of water and supplement electrolytes (sodium/potassium) on Monday and Thursday fasts.
- Proats Tip: Cook oats with water. Let cool for 1 minute before stirring in protein powder to prevent clumping.
- Yogurt Sauce: Mix your 30g of the water-cut dressing into the 150g of yogurt. You now have plenty of sauce to coat the massive 315g portion of chicken.
