As the title of the post suggests there has been no change in any of the results this week. However, whilst I have felt strangely more tired this week I do think that I am better for the 3 weeks that I've completed so far. I've done more cycling and I actually did my recovery session 3 times this week instead of the usual 2. This is something that I intend to do next week as well. I've increased the amount of stretching that I've been doing before, during and after the gym sessions and the off days as well and whilst it has been painful but I do believe that it's having a positive effect and is doing some good. There has been improvement made but the process is proving to be much slower than I had initially anticipated. Even though this can be demoralising, especially when I want to do so much more, I mustn't let it get me down and I should just focus on the job at hand and continue to work hard. Worrying wont help, just stay positive and work and the shoulder should eventually sort itself out.
I now have the reserve bike back with new brakes and the big chunky tyres on. So if the snows return, as some have predicted for February I'll be fully prepared and ready to go. I apologise for the short update report but there hasn't been movement in the way of results to report. Like I said mentally I'm feeling better about the approach but the focus at the moment is still to get the shoulder recovered to a point that I can train properly on it and ease myself back to heavy lifting in the Strength III program. Anyway I 'll have to go now as I need some sleep but I'll give a fuller update along with pictures next week so you'll be able to judge for yourselves whether there has been any change over the diet reset of 4 weeks.

when you switch to the almost no carb diet...do you generally take in most of you calories as fats then? like cheases and such? just trying to figure out how to get the calories necessary but not pig out on cheese and nuts for snacks...
If you mean plan A of TNT then there are still carbs in the diet it's just that they are suppose to be from vegetables (excluding things like potatoes, corn etc).
I must admit that I do like cheese and nuts as snacks but there are other things to snack on as well. I try to have snack type meal with meat etc. I have found that creating wraps either with lettuce leaves used to wrap meat veggies etc is good as is thin sliced meat (cold cuts)rolled the same way with colslaw and veggies in the centre. For your sweeter tooth (and if you like it) a spoonful of peanut butter with big mug of tea or coffee is nice as well. There are lots of things you can do - just get creative.
