    Exclamation (c) Muscle Meals Home Deliver Service

    I'm researching the possibliity of a (c) Muscle Meals home delivery service for body builders. Meals would be nutritionally balanced for optimum nutrition for body builders with low or no sodium and sugar and tastefully prepared. The service would deliver meals to the body builders door. The service would be backed by solid nutritional advice from an expert in the field. I would like feedback on this idea. 1) would you use a service like this? 2) would you pay $6 per meal?

    No, I would make and eat my own meals to be sure the macronutrients I wanted were correct.

    No I wouldn't, because of the reasons listed below:
    1) The reason listed in the post above by Fufu.
    2) I do not trust companies to not cheat and sneak in ingredients that aren't healthy in an attempt to make the food taste better and get more customers.
    3) I do not care how my food tastes anymore. I eat only to refuel my body, so your claim of having "tasteful meals" doesn’t really appeal to me.
    4) It would cost me a fortune to have 6 meals delivered to me everyday.
    5) I only eat two of my meals at my home, and the other three or four are prepared the night before or the morning of, packed into neat glad containers for maximum convenience.


    I think your idea is good in theory, but it would never be feasible for most bodybuilders.

    it's not feasible for "bodybuilders" per se because most do not have the extra money.

    this would be a great service in a place like Cali., to cater to the stars and/or rich.

    It depends on what the meals consist of. Additionally, you ask how much would I pay for a meal, but a meal taken during a bulk would be significantly larger (and more expensive) than a meal taken during a cut.

    To overcome the question of what exactly is in the food, have one or more certified nutritionist sign off on it. It won't completely allay the question, but it should help.

    You can also value add your meals by having meals that most American's haven't been exposed to, such a chicken curry or ginger chicken and not serve the same old barbecue chicken. Offer something new and interesting.

    In short, if you can guarantee the ingredients, keep the cost to about that of a fast food meal and offer an interesting menu, I'd buy it.

    of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
    about another group that actually does something
    to improve their lives.

    There's your slogan for you Veronica:

    Precooked meals for bodybuilders, without the financial risk of a wife.
    I'd buy that.

    I don't think just marketing to bodybuilders would work well, it's a very small market in each town. I would broaden the spectrum and go for a Diet's on Wheels thing. You would at least get the Slimfast women as well who would see "Muscle Meals" and think, "Oh I don't want to be all muscular, just toned." They can eat the same style meals because we know it's the best way to eat, just they don't get the feeling they are going to turn into a muscle bound freak because they ate something that said "Muscle" on it.

    I eat 4 real food meals a day and 2 shakes, it would end up costing me over $8700/yr to do something like this which is fucking ridiculous. I can cut that cost by more than half by buying in bulk and making the meals myself. all the time i dont spend cooking i'd have to be working to cover this. not feasible.

    EDIT: although, if you could do monthly supply's of food (package deals) i think it would be more worthwhile and less expensive for both parties. And btw, there are already services like this available.
