READY MEALS
For the days when you’ve got zero time to whip together a balanced lunch or dinner, nutritionally sound ready meals can take the hassle out of healthy eating.
Fresh Fitness Food £30 (three meals a day for ten days), freshfitnessfood.com
Aside from being a tailored service built around the macro needs of your training and lifestyle, Fresh Fitness Food has an impressive focus on the quality of ingredients and the experts they use to develop the meals. The company uses good-quality veg, meat and fish suppliers – all of which feature on the website. Customers are also assigned a nutritionist to help adapt their meals in line with their training plans. I found the app really useful, too, with full details on all of the meals you’ve ordered.
