If you’re trying to lose body fat, gain muscle, and stay on budget, this is exactly how I meal prep for under $150 a week. In this video, I’m taking you through my full weekly meal prep routine — including high protein meals, fiber-rich carbs, and affordable grocery finds that actually support body recomposition.

Welcome back yall!! As someone training consistently and focused on building lean muscle while staying snatched, I’ve learned that nutrition doesn’t have to be extreme or expensive. I’ll show you how I prep ground chicken/ beef, chicken breast, rice, veggies, fruit, and realistic breakfasts that keep me full, energized, and consistent throughout busy weeks.

We’re talking:
• High protein meal prep for muscle gain
• High fiber meals for fat loss and digestion
• Affordable grocery shopping tips
• Budget-friendly healthy eating
• Realistic meal prep for busy schedules
• How to stay consistent with fitness goals

Whether you’re trying to recomp, cut body fat, or just eat healthier without overspending, this routine keeps things simple and sustainable.
