If you don’t like something of ours, guess what happens next?
No, we don’t request you deliver it to a PO box in the Gobi Desert by carrier pigeon. Nor do we ask you to fill a cursed inkwell with orc’s blood and demon saliva and then use it to complete reams of return forms written in ancient Cyrillic script.
We just . . . wait for it . . . give you your money back. Holy moo cows. And that means you can say "yes" now and decide later.
The Absolute Best Meal Plan for Building Lean Muscle and Losing Stubborn Fat, or Your Money Back
If you want to build a body you can be proud of without having to starve or deprive yourself of the foods you actually like . . . eating meals tailored to your specific diet and food preferences . . . then these meal plans are for you.
It would be great if you could achieve your fitness goal in a week or two weeks, but unfortunately, losing fat and building muscle isn’t going to happen overnight. In order to get the body of your dreams, you’re going to be cutting and bulking for at least several months (and up to several years depending on your goals), so you’re going to have to find a way to like the process more than you dislike it.
The adage that the best diet is the one that you can stick to is absolutely true, and a properly designed meal plan can make all the difference.
But meal planning can be tricky. How many calories should you eat? How much protein? What macro breakdown will work best to help you achieve your goals? Should you have a higher-carb diet? Or would a more moderate amount of carbs and more fat work better for you?
That’s where the Legion custom meal plan service comes in. Our meal planners have created thousands of custom meal plans, each and every one built from scratch, and we can work with any and all budgetary and dietary needs as well: vegan, vegetarian, Paleo, gluten-free, sensitivities, allergies, and any other food preferences or restrictions.
Here’s a Sneak Peek of Everything You’ll Get . . .
A 100% custom meal plan(s).
A 100% custom supplement plan (if you want to incorporate supplements).
Quick start guide that outlines all the necessary steps to get you started and seeing the best results as quickly and effortly as possible.
Frequently asked questions and answers.
Ebook downloads of both of Mike Matthews' bestselling cookbooks The Shredded Chef and Eat Green Get Lean (and if you want, we can even include recipes from it in your meal plan!).
Email support from our meal plan team to make sure you’re getting the most out of your meal plan.
And the opportunity to be featured on our social media with our informal monthly transformation “contest” along with a chance to win a Legion supplement stack of your choice!
How the Legion Meal Plans Work
Step 1Purchase your custom meal plan(s).
Step 2Fill out the questionnaire (15 to 20 minutes).
Step 3We create a first draft of your meal plan and email it back to you (5 to 7 business days).
Step 4You check out your meal plan and let us know if you’d like any adjustments.
Step 5Once you’re happy with your custom meal plan, you get rolling!
It’s that simple!
In your order confirmation email, you’ll receive a link to our detailed questionnaire that tells our team about your fitness goals, exercise schedule, food preferences, and everything else we need to make your meal plan. It should take about 15 to 20 minutes to fill out.
We use your answers to create the first draft of your meal plan and email it back to you within 5 to 7 business days of receiving your completed questionnaire.
You check out your meal plan and let us know if you’d like any adjustments, and then you get going!
So, how much fat would you like to lose? Or how much muscle would you like to build? Working out isn't enough. Let us show you exactly how to eat to get there!
You’re Also Protected By Our "It's On Us” 100% Money-Back Guarantee
We hate when people and companies tout money-back guarantees that are hidden with “gotcha” clauses.
For example, here's something you'll find with many personal trainers and nutritionists: "If you follow my instructions for X days and aren't satisfied with the results, you get your money back."
And then, if it comes to actually asking for your money back, you get to start arguing about how precisely you actually followed the instructions.
SHENANIGANS, I tell you. So here's our money-back guarantee:
You're either thrilled with your meal plans and results or you get your money back.
It's that simple.
If, at any point in your journey, you're unhappy with the plans or experience and we can't turn that frown upside down, we will refund every penny you paid.
No forms to fill out, no forms to mail in, and no having to prove or disprove anything.
There are NO strings attached. That’s how confident we are that you’re going to love your meal plans and how they work for your body.
Check Some of Our Success Stories
“I reached my goals much faster than I had expected. The vast majority of the overall results I achieved over this 6 month cut happened in the first 3-4 months.”
DANIEL K.
“The diet is extremely different from what I have done in the past. I have always tried to simply eat clean to help fuel my body as a dancer, but I really had no idea how much I was preventing muscle growth by limiting my carbs.”
KATHY V.
"I started a serious cut 12 weeks out from contest, total weight lost was close to 60 pounds. My strength increases were massive from 185 bench to 285, everything increased weight wise, deads, squats, every exercise.”
BRANDON W.
“The meal plan/diet was a game changer for me. At first I was struggling to figure out how many calories I really needed and if my macros were right. Within a few weeks, I was on track and was getting the results I wanted.”
LISA J.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I purchase 1 plan for cutting now, and 1 plan for bulking later?
No, custom meal plans purchased at one time are only meant to be used for a single goal (cutting OR bulking OR maintaining), not a combination.
People's bodies respond uniquely, and we can only make an estimate of what your body measurements will be in a certain time frame or when you’re ready to bulk (when you’re about 10% body fat for men and 20% for women) or cut (when you’re about 15% body fat for men or 25% for women), or what your weight, and thus calorie needs, will be when you get there. These numbers play a big role in determining a good starting point for calorie intake and macro breakdown, which is key to ensure that your custom meal plan will give you the best results possible.
It takes a good bit to put together a truly custom plan based on the specific needs, food and meal-timing preferences, etc. of a given individual (all of which can change over the course of some months), and added to that, we have to include the back and forth that is often necessary to fine-tune the plan to the person's needs and wants.
Basically, it’s inevitable that adjustments will have to be made months down the road, regardless of what we set up now, and it becomes impractical for us to offer this at a reasonable cost.
This is kind of expensive. Why is it worth it?
The pricing of the product is based on the amount of time put in to create the custom plans. When it comes to the custom plans, it takes a good bit of time, effort, and know-how to put together a plan based on the specific needs, food and meal-timing preferences, diet goals, etc. of a given individual. And then there’s the back and forth that’s sometimes necessary to fine tune the plan.
There’s great peace of mind that comes with having a meal plan that’ll help you to avoid the many diet-related pitfalls that prevent people from achieving their weight loss and muscle-building goals.
Another big benefit is that by following the meal plan we create for you, you’ll learn how dieting actually works (and how simple it is once you know what you’re doing), and that diet really is a tool, not a cross to bear or something to suffer through.
And once you know how to use this tool, you’ll be able to begin creating your own meal plans in the future. You won’t have to keep coming back for modifications or new plans (unless you really just don’t feel like doing the work yourself, in which case we’ll be happy to continue to assist you).
I can’t spend too much money on my food. Will this work for me?
Yes, we can work around any type of budget.
When you fill out the questionnaire, just let us know if there are any expensive foods that you’d like us to leave off (jerky, steak, etc.).
I don’t want to have to cook a lot. Will that work?
Yes, we can incorporate as much or little cooking as you prefer. This is your custom meal plan, after all!
I don’t live in the USA. Can you still do a meal plan for me?
We do meal plans for people all over the world, and this is the beauty of a fully customized service—we work with the exact foods you like and have available in your stores.
Be sure to be very specific on what items to include when filling out your questionnaire.
And keep in mind that you’ll have a chance to review the plan and we’ll adjust it to make sure it works for you before you get started.
Are there any recurring charges?
No. We hate it when companies try to slip in automatic rebills and will never do anything like that.
I already own Mike's cookbooks. Can I get a discount?
Unfortunately, no. What you’re paying for is the time that goes into the creation of your meal plan. We just throw the cookbooks in as a free bonus.
What if I’m not satisfied with my meal plan?
If you have any questions or need anything changed or adjusted to better suit you, we’ll be happy to help out. We definitely want to make sure the plan is 100% tailored to your needs and that you’re able to follow it with ease to get the best results possible.
This isn’t an ongoing service, but we do want to make sure our customers hit the ground running and start progressing right away!
If I have a question, how do I get in touch with someone?
You can reach someone on our team any time by emailing [email protected].

Clinically Effective Ingredients & Doses
Many ingredients in supplements don’t have any scientifically validated benefits, and many ingredients that do are often underdosed to the point of irrelevance.
That’s why we only use the choice ingredients and precise doses shown to be effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies.
Clinically Effective Doses
You need more than great ingredients to make great products—you also need proper doses. That’s why we use the precise doses of ingredients shown to be effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies.
100% Natural Ingredients
“Natural” doesn’t always mean “better,” but in many cases, natural ingredients are superior to artificial ones for various reasons, including purity, safety, and efficacy.
That’s why all of our ingredients in all of our products come from plant and animal sources, including sweeteners, colors, and flavors.
Made in USA
If you want to ensure the supplements you’re swallowing every day are safe and effective, you want products produced in the USA.
That’s why all of our supplements are made in America in NSF-certified and FDA-inspected facilities that operate in accordance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations.
Lab Tested
Did you know that supplements can contain dangerously high levels of toxins like lead, arsenic, and cadmium?
That’s why we test every ingredient of every supplement we produce for heavy metals, microbes, allergens, and other contaminants and ensure they meet the strict purity standards set by the FDA.
Naturally Sweetened & Flavored
While artificial sweeteners may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health.
That’s why all of our supplements are naturally sweetened and flavored and contain no artificial food dyes, fillers, or other unnecessary junk.
Science-Backed Ingredients
Many ingredients in supplements don’t have any scientifically validated benefits. That’s why we only use choice ingredients shown to be effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies.

Some popular pre-workouts are all-natural. Some contain the right mix of high-quality ingredients. Some provide clinically effective doses. But only Pulse checks each of these boxes.
Pulse doesn’t just “contain natural ingredients''—every ingredient is naturally sourced from plants and animals. Pulse contains no artificial or synthetic substances of any kind.
Every serving of Pulse contains 15.1 grams of active ingredients that have been shown to be safe and effective in peer-reviewed scientific research.
Every active ingredient in Pulse is backed by published scientific studies that show benefits in healthy humans.
Pulse contains no harsh stimulants that wind you up and burn you out. Instead, it contains a 1:1 ratio of caffeine and L-theanine, which produces a smooth energy rush and comfortable comedown.
We carefully examined 508 pages of scientific research to find out exactly what should and shouldn’t be in a pre-workout drink.
Every bottle of Pulse is guaranteed to provide exactly what the label claims and nothing else—no heavy metals, microbes, allergens, or other contaminants.
While these types of chemicals may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of them may indeed be harmful to our health. And that’s why we don’t put any of them into our products.
Before you buy a sports supplement, you should know that it's clean, safe, and transparent. And that's exactly what Labdoor's third-party testing and certification means.
It's hard to know for sure, but this probably makes Pulse the most-popular all-natural pre-workout supplement in the world.
If you don’t absolutely love this product, just let us know, and we’ll give you a full refund on the spot. No forms or return necessary.
