On a hot, steamy and soon to be rainy Afternoon Delight, 7, then 8, then 9 and finally 10 Pax gathered for a little education and sweat and unfortunately burpees

After the warm-o-Rama YHC informed the Pax, I would ask a history question about our Independence Day origin.

After each correct answer, we would follow with 3 exercises 7.4.1776…7 reps of the 1st, 4 reps of the 2nd, 17 reps of the 3rd, and 76 reps of the 4th.

If there was an incorrect answer, we would start with 10 penalty burpees.

Here are the questions, along with correct answers and the four exercises after each question.

Btw – we did 80 penalty burpees 😜

1. What date did Continental Congress declare its freedom from Britain? ~ July 2, 1776 ~ On July 4, 1776, once the delegates had prepared an explanation to the public, the Declaration of Independence was read in each colony and adopted by Congress. When the Lee Resolution was brought again before the Continental Congress on July 2, 1776, twelve colonies adopted it with New York abstaining. On July 4, only nine colonies voted in favor of adopting the Declaration of Independence. Pennsylvania and South Carolina voted No, Delaware was Undecided and New York Abstained.

4. What is written on the back of The Declaration of Independence? Unfortunately for National Treasure fans, it’s not an invisible treasure map. Written upside down on the back of the document reads: “Original Declaration of Independence dates 4th July 1776.” It’s believed this text was added as a label, as parchment was oftentimes rolled up for transport during the Revolutionary War.

7. How many of the authors signed The Declaration of Independence ? 4 Robert Livingston was a New York delegate, fervent patriot, and a member of the Committee of Five, which spent days drafting the Declaration of Independence. After countless hours of debating, Livingston was ultimately unable to sign the document. Although Livingston strongly supported the fight for freedom, he refused to sign the document before New York had formally instructed its delegation to do so. The last person to sign was Matthew Thornton, who signed it on November 4, 1776. Robert Livingston, one of the Committee of Five members, never signed it, stating it was too soon to declare independence from Britain.
