Takeout is incredibly good at solving one problem. It’s available when you haven’t planned anything else.

The problem is when that emergency solution quietly becomes the food system.…

Eating well is relatively easy when you have time. The harder version is eating well when your first meeting starts early, lunch gets pushed back twice, you leave work later than expected, and the dinner you planned to make suddenly isn’t happening.

One of the biggest misconceptions about athlete meal prep is that there is a single “perfect” nutrition plan. In reality, the best athletes don’t eat the same way all year long.
