cable abs is a hard exercise to pull off, its one where your either using your abs or swinging the weight down.
your squats are lagging mate, you've been at the same weight for a whilevarying between 110 and 100... mostly 100. even if its a small 1.25kg plate, throw one on either side

 I did a bit of pilates work at the last job I had (we had a lady come in twice a week). It was good in teaching how to really focus the tension in the abs (It's easy to cheat with abs as you know). My movements are quite strict & I don't use an over the top. I always make sure I'm crunching while holding the weight for around 2 secs while contracted. With the squats, I decided to stick to around the hundred mark for this last 2 weeks of 10 reps. I should be on a weeks break now but I had to take one half way through the last cycle so I've started back on the easier of the 15 rep sets as of yesterday.

swim - only 7 cycles. got to the pool at around 6:30pm & it was full of school kids - the lane I was using was getting closed to the public & I couldn't be bothered moving over 4 lanes for the last cycle (& I was hungry).

I just cycle the weight - it's all part of the HST routine.
I personally don't think balls to the wall every workout is good for the CNS. I have got other issues at the moment too that will hopefully sort themselves out very shortly but for now I don't really want to over do it. If I fatigue myself too much It may have an adverse effect on my progress with this "other issue" - I'm pretty sure you're aware of what I'm talking about.

Nice work Cammo! I love the part on your last swim day where you say... and I was hungry! I hated to swim with my stomach yelling for food! I enjoy reading your workouts and good luck!

Dusted the cobwebs off the elliptical today and jumped on for 20 mins of interval training. I was quite surprised at how well I delt with it & how fast it was for my heart rate to settle afterwards. It's a lot harder to judge when I'm swimming as the breathing is a lot different etc...
