1.How to select the right meal plan for your individual goal
Okay, so it all starts with a simple question. What is your current goal?
Hopefully you will have answered this box already using ”the performance calculator in the My Account section”. If you’re unsure what your goal is, no problem we have you covered… jump over to our blog post on “how to know what goal is right for you”.
Notice we mentioned what is your current goal? Due to time of year, stage of season or other lifestyle factors your goals are likely to change and with that the meal plans you utilise will also change to match your goals.
Below is a guide to help you select a meal plan that will match your initial goal.

3. How to personalise meal plans by subtracting/adding recipes
To utilise the meal plans it is important that you can tailor each plan to align with your individual taste preferences and goal.
I have seen meal plans in the past that could only be described as rigid, un-varied and un-attainable to stick with in the long run.
Our aim is that you can do the following with our meal plans:
- Adapt meal plans to your individual taste preference
- Add your favourite recipes to your meal plan
- Adjust recipes depending on the time you have available to cook
- Search for recipes using the recipe filter, for instance if you have a food allergy
- Selectively choose recipes based on the physical demands of your day
Ultimately, the meal plans offer a template to serve you and your goals.
