Followed by another 15 mins on the treadmill. Today that last 15 mins was a killer. Part of me just wanted to sit down and die, but the other part of me said that 15 mins on the treadmill wasn’t going to kill me. So I did it. I suspect that this means I’m finally using weights that push me a little, which is good.

Wohoo!
I can always tell my weights were probably good when I don't even want to walk. That's one of the benefits of having my workouts at night--if I need to crash afterward, I can.
Ugh, and in Stage 2, Alwyn wants
interval sessions after workouts?? I've tried them twice and can hardly get any out. So I'm having to move them to other nights/mornings.
Maybe, if you keep using challenging weights, you might want to move that afterward 15-min treadmill to sometime earlier. Or just keep using it to squeeze the last bit of energy and motivation out

I also managed to do 6 of the prone jackknife without falling off today. Sadly this doesn’t help me since I need to do 10 the next time the exercise comes up.

You'll get 'em. They aren't easy. There was a thread near the beginning of the women's forum that asked something like, "Jackknives in Stage 1? Is Alwyn
insane??"
Keep up the good work!
