Meal Prep for the Fitness-Minded Woman: Easy Ideas for Busy Weeks

Fuel your workouts, simplify your week, and stay on track—without spending hours in the kitchen!

Whether you're training with kettlebells, crushing cardio boxing, or powering through outdoor bootcamps, what you eat plays a huge role in your results. But let’s be real—between work, family, and everything else, cooking healthy meals every day isn’t always realistic. That’s where meal prep magic comes in. 🥗⏱️

Why Meal Prep Works 💡

• ✅ Saves time during your busiest days

• ✅ Supports your fitness goals with intentional nutrition

• ✅ Reduces stress around food decisions

• ✅ Helps avoid the drive-thru trap (bye, fast food!)

You don’t need to be a chef or spend your Sunday in the kitchen. You just need a plan. 📋
