How fitness meal prep works
These services deliver meals built around a fitness or weight goal, with the calories and macros (protein, carbs and fat) counted for you. There are two models. Ready-made plans like Prep Kitchen and MuscleFood's Goal Getters send fully-cooked, chilled meals you reheat in minutes. Bespoke plans like Fresh Fitness Food build a daily menu around your exact macros and goal.
What they cost
The ready-made plans are the better value: MuscleFood's Goal Getters work out from about £1.93 a meal, and Prep Kitchen from around £6.95 a meal with free delivery. Fresh Fitness Food is the premium option, priced per day (from roughly £20, typically £23 to £30) because every plan is tailored - and its daily fresh delivery is London-focused.
How to choose
- Your goal - for fat loss, choose calorie-controlled meals (Prep Kitchen's Regular size, MuscleFood's weight-loss plans); for muscle gain, larger high-protein portions.
- Convenience versus precision - ready-made plans are cheaper and simpler; Fresh Fitness Food gives precise macro control at a premium.
- Protein - look for around 30 to 60g per meal; all three are built around high protein.
- Diet - plant-based variety is limited across this category, so check before committing if you are vegetarian or vegan.
- Delivery - Fresh Fitness Food is best in London; Prep Kitchen and MuscleFood cover most of mainland Britain, with some Scottish exclusions.
