- Weight - 14st 12.5lbs (down 1.75lbs from last week)
- Body Fat % - 10.4% (up 0.6% from last week)
- Waist - 36 inches (no change from last week)
Weight drop is considerably less than last week as expected however, I did anticipate getting a minimum of a 2lb loss - oh well. I think the body fat percentage is about right, perhaps could be a little higher as I think that last week's measurement was flatteringly low. There's no movement with the waist measurement which I would say is pretty accurate and I'm currently comfortable with that.
So how's the recovery training going? One word, slowly. It doesn't seem to be progressing as I would like. I'm still experiencing a lot of discomfort and pain with what are regarded as light weights by comparison to what I was doing before. I find this very frustrating. I intend to keep persisting with the sessions until the end of the 4 weeks but will increase the amount of stretching that I am currently doing on the shoulder in order to give it a gentle push in the right direction. Especially if some of the pain is as a result of stiffness in the joint due to trauma. I'll let you know how it goes.
In terms of the cycling it's been a bit of a mixed bag. The adverse weather and a flair up of my knee pain have all played their part this week. I've used the fold up bike at least once and then the reserve mountain bike about three times so have cycled more this week than last. Now that we have had quite a bit of rain it has melted much of the snow and so I hope to get back on my proper bike and cycle much better next week (knee permitting). I'll let you know how it all goes.
Cheers, BustaGut!
