Fitness Power Food alternative · Barcelona
Looking for an alternative to Fitness Power Food?
Fitness Power Food does athlete nutrition properly: packs built by nutritionists around fat loss, muscle gain or definition, cooked in their own kitchen and shipped anywhere in Spain. HealthyFoodBCN hits the same numbers a different way, with one chef cooking your plan fresh twice a week.
Fitness Power Food is one of the few Spanish services that genuinely earned its athlete positioning. Pablo Blanco and Verónica Caballero started it in 2017, cook in their own kitchen in Sant Joan Despí, and built programmes with nutritionists rather than slapping a protein label on a generic menu. The dishes go out unsalted and without added oil so you can season to your own targets, and they keep two weeks in the fridge. If your week is chaotic and you want a stack of macro-known meals ready to go, that model works. HealthyFoodBCN answers the same brief from the other direction: instead of picking the pack closest to your goal, you tell us your numbers and Frank cooks to them.

Where Fitness Power Food wins
- Much cheaper per meal: roughly €8 to €11 in packs against our €20 to €22
- Real credibility with the Spanish fitness world since 2017, with nutritionist-built programmes for fat loss, muscle gain and definition, and endorsements from figures like Carlos Ríos, David Marchante and Anabel Ávila
- Two weeks of fridge life and national shipping, so meals stack up for an irregular week or a trip away
- Meals go out unsalted and without added oil, which suits anyone weighing and seasoning their own food to the gram
Where HealthyFoodBCN wins
- Frank Diaz cooks each plate himself, with El Celler de Can Roca on his CV and a Madrid Fusión 2019 win. Fitness Power Food runs a production kitchen behind pre-built programmes.
- Your plan is designed for you, not selected from a goal, gender and weight bracket. Frank works from your actual calorie and protein targets, your training week, your allergies and what you don't like eating.
- Cooked the day before and delivered twice a week in Barcelona, rather than cook-chilled to last a fortnight in transit and storage.
- The whole eating day if you want it: breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner, all built to hit the same daily numbers.
- One household, several plans. An athlete on strict macros and a partner or kids eating normally get different plates from the same delivery.
- Five languages, including English, Catalan, Russian and Ukrainian. Fitness Power Food operates in Spanish.
HealthyFoodBCN is for someone in Barcelona who wants the food built to their specific numbers, not to the pack nearest their goal. Tell us the daily target (say 2,600 kcal and 190g protein, higher on training days), the allergies, the foods you won't eat, and Frank designs and cooks the week around it. Our nutritionist sets the targets first if you'd rather not guess at them. It also solves the household problem: your plan and your family's food come from the same kitchen on the same delivery.
The price math
Fitness Power Food's packs run from about €54 to €67 for six meals and about €185 to €226 for twenty-four, so roughly €8 to €11 a meal, plus shipping on smaller orders and a €30 minimum. Ten meals a week lands around €90 to €110. HealthyFoodBCN is about €44 per person per day for two meals, roughly €220 a week, and about €60 a day for a full day, roughly €300 a week, so about €20 a plate. We cost two to three times more per meal. The gap is what the money buys: they cook nutritionist-designed programmes in volume and ship them, while Frank cooks your specific plan, fresh, restaurant-grade, twice a week, with portions sized per person in the household. If the priority is hitting macros at the lowest cost per plate, Fitness Power Food wins on price. The premium here buys a chef cooking your actual numbers and food you look forward to eating.
Best-fit recommendation
Stay with Fitness Power Food if you want cheap macro-known meals stocked for the fortnight, you season your own food, and you're outside Barcelona anyway. Try us if you want a chef hitting your targets with food that eats like a restaurant plate, your whole day covered, and the rest of the household fed from the same delivery.
Common questions
Do you work with athletes the way Fitness Power Food does?
Yes. Several clients train seriously and give us hard numbers: daily calories, protein floor, carb timing around sessions, adjustments through a cut or a competition build. Frank designs to those targets and we share the macro breakdown per meal so you can log it. If you want the targets set for you first, our nutritionist can lead that part, and you tick the box on the form.
Fitness Power Food meals keep two weeks. How long do yours keep?
Four to five days, because we cook the day before each delivery and deliver twice a week. That's the trade-off. Their cook-and-chill process is built for national shipping and fridge stockpiling; ours is built for food that tastes like it was cooked yesterday, because it was.
Is Fitness Power Food cheaper than HealthyFoodBCN?
Yes, by a wide margin. Their packs work out at roughly €8 to €11 a meal against our €20 to €22. They cook set programmes in volume for the whole country; Frank cooks one household's plan at a time in Barcelona. Different operations, different price.
Can I get more personalization than a goal and weight bracket?
That's the main difference. Fitness Power Food asks for your objective, gender and weight range, then matches you to a pack. We start from your numbers and your life: training days versus rest days, allergies, foods you won't touch, how many people are eating and what each of them needs. The result is one household's plan, cooked for that household.
They cook in Sant Joan Despí. Do you deliver around there?
We cover Barcelona city and the surrounding metro, including Sant Just, Esplugues, Sant Cugat, Castelldefels and Badalona. If you're in that ring and not sure, submit the form and we'll confirm coverage before anything starts.
