Pros and cons

Pros

  • Protein per serving of 35 g puts it 3 of 43 on our data, well above the 27 upper quartile for protein powders.
  • Price from and price per serving are the same figure, AUD 5.95, so entry cost and serving cost do not diverge.
  • The range spans meal replacement, protein bars and whey protein, covering protein powders, meal replacement shakes and protein bars rather than a single format.
  • Support runs on email, phone and chat, so a phone line and live chat sit alongside email and a help centre.
  • Its product types compare with the wider list at Body Attack, which also sells creatine, pre-workout, electrolytes and mass gainers.

Cons

  • Flavour choice is thin at 5 flavours options, narrower than the range some sellers carry.
  • It is a single market operation, listed only for AU, so anyone outside Australia is not served.
  • Price per serving ranks 43 of 46, well behind its own position on price from, so a high serving cost follows the low entry figure.
  • The range stops at meal replacement, protein bars and whey protein with no creatine or pre-workout lines, unlike Myvitamins and HUM Nutrition.

Who it suits

  • People in Australia buying ready-to-drink protein without a membership, given its presence in Australia.
  • Lifters who rank protein density first: 35 g per serving is the strongest number this brand puts forward.
  • Shoppers who want powders, shakes and bars from one seller, since its types cover meal replacement, protein bars and whey protein.

Who should look elsewhere

  • People in the UK or EU, because the brand lists AU only.
  • Shoppers chasing a broad supplement range, as HUM Nutrition and Myvitamins carry creatine, pre-workout and electrolyte lines that this range does not.
  • Flavour samplers, since 5 flavours options is a short list for a protein buyer.

Prices

My Muscle Chef is a one-off purchase brand rather than a plan with tiers. The entry figure is AUD 5.95, and that is also the price per serving, so the cost you meet first and the cost of a single shake are the same number. There is no membership in the range, and no introductory offer paired with a renewal step: the price you see is the price of one serving, and buying more servings simply repeats it. That makes the per serving figure the only number worth comparing across this category, and on our data it ranks 43 of 46. Compare that with the entry ranking of 2 of 66, and the gap between the two tells you the serving cost sits higher in the field than the sticker price suggests.

How it compares on our data

The strongest showing is protein per serving. At 35 g a serving, My Muscle Chef places 3 of 43 brands we track on that measure, ahead of the 27 upper quartile recorded for protein powders and the 29.85 upper quartile for meal replacement shakes. On entry price it also ranks well, at 2 of 66. The gap in this data sits between those two: a low entry price and top tier protein density against a middling position on the cost of a single serving. Overall the brand scores 9.1, made up of 9 for cost, 9.5 for offer and 8.2 for trust, so the offer carries the rating rather than the price.

Core features

The headline feature is protein density. Each serving carries 35 g, which is what lifts this brand near the top of our rankings on that measure and well past the median for the ranges we track. The range itself covers meal replacement, protein bars and whey protein, so powders, ready-to-drink shakes and bars come from the same seller rather than a single format. Flavour choice is the narrower side of the offer: 5 flavours options across the protein shakes, which is a short list for anyone who likes to rotate through flavours. The comparison with Body Attack is instructive, since that seller's product types run wider and include creatine, pre-workout, electrolytes and mass gainers alongside whey and plant protein, while this range stops at powders, shakes and bars.

The company behind it

My Muscle Chef trades as My Muscle Chef Pty Ltd, registered in Australia, which is also the only market it serves. The company has been trading since 2013, so it is a long established seller rather than a recent listing. Support runs on email, phone and chat, which is a broad spread for a brand of this size: a phone number, live chat, email and a self-service help centre, rather than email alone. The company details point to an Australian operation serving Australian customers, with no licensing body or certification body recorded against the range.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a My Muscle Chef shake cost?+

The entry price is AUD 5.95, and the price per serving is the same figure of AUD 5.95. Because the two match, there is no gap between the advertised price and what a single serving costs. There is no membership attached, so repeat orders simply repeat the same per serving figure.

How much protein is in each serving?+

Each serving carries 35 g of protein, which is the number that lifts this brand to 3 of 43 in our data on that measure. That sits above the 27 upper quartile for protein powders and the 29.85 upper quartile for meal replacement shakes.

What kinds of products does My Muscle Chef sell?+

The range covers meal replacement, protein bars and whey protein, so protein powders, meal replacement shakes and protein bars all come from the same seller. It is a focused list. Body Attack, by comparison, carries a wider set that includes creatine, pre-workout, electrolytes and mass gainers alongside its protein lines.

How many flavours do the protein shakes come in?+

The protein shakes are listed in 5 flavours. That is a short list compared with sellers who rotate through a wider catalogue, so if you prefer to try several flavours before settling on one, this is worth checking first. It is also the narrowest part of an otherwise solid offer.

Does My Muscle Chef operate outside Australia?+

The brand is registered in Australia and its stated markets cover AU, so this is a single market operation. Customers outside Australia would face a shipping and availability question before anything else. The company behind it trades as My Muscle Chef Pty Ltd and has been operating since 2013.

How do you get hold of My Muscle Chef support?+

Support runs on email, phone and chat, so you can reach the company by phone, live chat, email or a help centre. That is a wider spread than email alone, and it suits anyone who would rather talk a question through than write it out. The company has traded since 2013 from AU.

Is there a subscription or a joining fee?+

Nothing in the range is set up as a plan, and there is no introductory price paired with a renewal step. The price from of AUD 5.95 is the price of a serving, and the price per serving is the same AUD 5.95. You pay per order rather than committing to a membership.

How does My Muscle Chef rank on price?+

The entry price places it 2 of 66, which is a strong position. The price per serving tells a different story, ranking 43 of 46. Reading both together is the fair way to judge it, since the low entry figure and the higher serving cost point in different directions.

Which brands are worth comparing with it?+

Body Attack is the closest comparison on range, carrying whey protein, plant protein and creatine. HUM Nutrition is worth a look for plant protein and creatine, with plant protein and creatine, and Myvitamins covers whey protein, creatine and electrolytes for shoppers who also want creatine, electrolytes or pre-workout alongside whey protein.
