Create a daily nutrition plan with detailed meals and foods

To create your first meal day and open the nutrition meal builder, simply hover over a day to see the “Create a meal” button.

(You can also click on the small “+” button available on each day).

Once you click, you’ll enter the nutrition plan builder.

Dessus, il y a plusieurs éléments.
​
On this screen, there are several elements:

On the left side, you’ll find the list of foods and products.

There are over 5 million foods and products available for you to build your nutrition plans.

Alongside our own database, any coach on Gymkee can add their own foods and products.

You too can add a new food to the database by clicking the “+” button and entering the values.

Even with the best intentions, some foods or products added by other coaches may not always be accurate.

That’s why most foods display a certification badge.

​

All items with this badge are verified and safe — you can use them in your plans with confidence.

In addition to foods and products, you can also use recipes.

Click on “Foods” and switch to “Recipes”

You’ll then see over 100 healthy recipes we’ve added, ready to use in your meal plans.
​

If you’ve created your own recipes, you’ll also find them here, listed at the very top.
​
Now that you know everything you can use, let’s move on to creating your first nutrition plans.

The first way to create a daily meal plan is by building it meal by meal, with maximum detail.
​
Start by typing the food you want to add to your plan in the search bar.
​

You’ll then see all matching results in the list on the left.

On the right, you’ll find the meal area where your meals will be built.

To create your first meal, simply click on the food item or drag & drop it into the meal area.

By default, this will automatically create the first meal and name it “Breakfast.”

Meals are created with default names in this order:

You can of course rename each meal, change the emoji, or even add a custom picture.

On Gymkee, you can also add branded products to your nutrition plans.

To do this, run a specific product search.

If the right result doesn’t appear in the first search, you can run an advanced search by clicking the button just below the results list (sometimes it may appear at the very bottom).

Once you’ve found the right product, simply drag & drop it into a meal.

After adding multiple foods, you’ll see your meals structured like this:

As we saw earlier, you can add Gymkee’s healthy recipes or the ones you’ve personally created into a nutrition plan.

Just like with a food or a product, simply click on the recipe or drag & drop it into the right-hand side of the screen.

Once added, you’ll see the recipe appear with:

The number of portions = the number of servings of the recipe.

👉 Example: 2 portions = for 2 people.

You can adjust this value to fit your client’s needs — for instance, set it to 1 portion for a single serving.

On Gymkee, we give you the flexibility to adapt to each client and make their nutrition plan easier to follow.

For every meal of the day, you can create one or several alternatives.

That means you can prepare multiple versions of the same meal and let your client choose which one they want to follow.
​
To add an alternative, simply click on the button here:

Once inside, you’ll see the base meal at the top. You can open it to review all the foods it contains while you create alternatives.

To add an alternative, just drag a food item into this section:

Your alternative meals will appear right under the base meal.

You can add as many alternatives as you want.

Once you’ve added meal alternatives, you’ll see a small badge appear above the alternatives button, showing the total number of added meals.

When a meal is complete, it will automatically appear in your program as a Draft.

The status will only change once you send it to a client.
