You&#8217;ve put in months of training. Your macros need to be precise. Your gut needs to be stable. And you absolutely cannot afford to eat something that doesn&#8217;t agree with you two days before you step on stage u2014 or onto the court, or into the ring.</p>
<p>OTS Meal Prep was built for athletes who understand that nutrition is part of the training, not an afterthought.</p>
</div><div class="fusion-title title fusion-title-1 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-four" style="--awb-margin-bottom:24px;--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;"><h4 class="fusion-title-heading title-heading-left" style="margin:0;">What Your Body Needs Peak Week</h4></div><div class="fusion-text fusion-text-2"><p>The week before competition, most athletes are managing carb intake, holding protein high, and keeping dietary fat moderate. Water and sodium manipulation varies by sport. What doesn&#8217;t vary: the need for consistent, clean food that your digestive system already knows.</p>
<p>Peak week is not the time to try a new restaurant or order something unfamiliar. You need food you&#8217;ve eaten before, made the same way, with macros you can count on.</p>
</div><div class="fusion-title title fusion-title-2 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-four" style="--awb-margin-bottom:24px;--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;"><h4 class="fusion-title-heading title-heading-left" style="margin:0;">The OTS Meals Built for Peak Week</h4></div><div class="fusion-text fusion-text-3"><p><strong>Grilled Salmon ($15):</strong> 425 cal / 41g protein. Low in saturated fat. Easy on digestion. High-quality protein that preserves muscle during a deficit.</p>
<p><strong>Strip Loin ($15):</strong> 545 cal / 42g protein. Higher calorie for carb-loading phases. Dense protein, consistent every time.</p>
<p><strong>Egg White Scramble ($15):</strong> Pure protein, minimal fat, almost no carbs. Perfect for low-carb days.</p>
<p><strong>Turkey Wrap ($12):</strong> Lean, portable, consistent macros. A reliable lunch that travels well to the venue.</p>
</div><div class="fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-four" style="--awb-margin-bottom:24px;--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;"><h4 class="fusion-title-heading title-heading-left" style="margin:0;">Why Consistency Matters More Than Perfection</h4></div><div class="fusion-text fusion-text-4"><p>Peak week nutrition isn&#8217;t about eating perfectly u2014 it&#8217;s about eating predictably. Your gut flora adapts to what you eat regularly. Switching foods at the last minute introduces variables you don&#8217;t need.</p>
<p>Athletes who order OTS regularly have an advantage: they already know exactly how each meal sits, how it digests, and how it makes them feel. No surprises peak week.</p>
</div><div class="fusion-title title fusion-title-4 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-four" style="--awb-margin-bottom:24px;--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;"><h4 class="fusion-title-heading title-heading-left" style="margin:0;">Pickup in Riverside, Delivery Across SoCal</h4></div><div class="fusion-text fusion-text-5"><p>OTS pickup is available at Tournament House Gym, 6250 Brockton Ave, Riverside. Delivery covers the full SoCal corridor u2014 LA, San Diego, Long Beach, Murrieta, Temecula, Oceanside, Rancho Cucamonga, and Palm Desert.</p>
<p>Order before the weekly cutoff and your meals are ready when you need them u2014 no guesswork, no last-minute scramble.</p>
