Fit Chef
Best for: Adelaide locals tracking macros for training goals
A good value Adelaide option for anyone tracking macros, with full nutrition panels on every dish and low carb Shred versions of most mains. The single weekly delivery window and metro-only footprint make it impractical outside Adelaide.
- Calories plus protein, carbs and fat shown on every meal tile, so tracking macros is straightforward
- Meals mostly $12.50, cheaper than many national prepared meal services, with 15% off at 25+ meals and up to 10% off for subscribing
- Around 40 meals on the menu including low carb Shred versions, 10 vegan options, gluten free and dairy free filters
- Free Monday pickup option from Melrose Park if you want to skip the $15 delivery fee
- Adelaide metro only, no delivery anywhere else in Australia
- One delivery window per week with a Thursday midnight cut-off, so little flexibility
- $15 delivery fee plus a $60 minimum order adds up on smaller orders
- Delivery day is stated as Saturday in one place and Sunday in another, which is confusing at checkout
Workout Meals
Best for: High protein meals for training and muscle gain
Suits gym-goers and athletes who want dietitian-formulated meals with published macros and larger serves, and who are happy to run a weekly subscription to avoid the delivery fee. Less suitable if you are in WA or NT, or if you only want the odd one-off box.
- Full macro and calorie breakdown, plus ingredients and allergens, shown on every meal
- Genuinely high protein, with many mains between 32g and 54g per serve
- Free delivery on weekly or fortnightly subscriptions over $99, with skip or cancel at any time
- Air fryer compatible range and larger portion sizes for people training hard
- No delivery to WA or NT
- Flat delivery fee of about $15 on one-off orders, which lifts the effective cost of a small box
- Priced at the higher end for prepared meals at roughly $12.50 a meal a la carte
- Free shipping does not apply to the WM360 program
