Can You Name a Prime Number?

Today was supposed to be the grinder but it’s no secret I’m not a fan so our President AOQ allowed me to dial up a different workout.

Conditions: Lets state the obvious……it’s super-hot outside no matter what time you make it out there. The air was thick and the perspiration was high.

Stride Lite – Today’s participants were Eggo, Lumberg, MacG and Squatter. Well squatter’s run wasn’t verified because he got there late but the dude was sweaty before BC started so I’ll give him credit.

BOM:

We started off with a fan favorite…..10 burpees OYO

Mosey to the hexagon

Just for Dunphy – READY READY!
First exercise I called was SSH. To decide a number of reps I asked Niles to pick a number from 1 to 50. He chose 0. I assumed the pax would pick a small number so the plan ahead of time was 50 less the number they picked would be the amount of reps. So we did 50 SSH. (Pickle turned out to be our calculator)
Next up was squats. Pop Off was asked to pick a number between 1-10, he chose 3, so Pickle punched his calculator and decided 5×3 was 15 and we did 15 SLOW squats Dips followed that up. It turns out DOT is 29 so we did 29……with some complaining.
Here is where the morning went to crap. I assumed since we are all educated adults that knowing what a prime number is wouldn’t be that hard. I mean that was 4th/5th grade math right? First up – “Paper Jam pick a prime number between 20 and 30” (Spoiler there are only two; 23 and 29). Jam asked what a prime number was……. Next up “Eggo pick a prime number between 20 and 30”. Eggo “Um 21”? After I stopped shaking my head for a minute, I asked the ENTIRE group can anyone pick a prime number between 20 – 30. I heard someone behind me yell 23, I think it was Turtle Head so he gets the credit.

Lumberg is normally full of useless information but even he had no idea. After taking way to long to pick a number of reps we finally did 23 bobby hurley’s.

Mosey to the front of the middle school entrance. This was beach body ab workout power session.

Leg Raises x25; hold legs at 45 degree angle for 20 seconds…….key the whining!

LBC’s x50 (use abs not neck….DOT)

American Hammer x50

Flutter Kicks x50

Gas Pumps x25

Hello Dolly x25

Box Cutter x 25

Boat Canoe x15

Circle of fire

Mosey to the grass island – plank for army crawl through shin tall weeds……AOQ said no way in hell so we moseyed to entrance of Elementary school Team building exercise with Merkins – get a partner – partner 1 does 5 merkins while partner two is in low plank position, when partner 1 finishes partner 1 goes to low plank while partner 2 does 5 merkins. Rinse and repeat until you hit 25. If you want to break a pax spirit, do three rounds of these. They are difficult but very hard. I almost died when round 3 was about to start and a Pop Off fart got me so bad I
may have dry heaved for a few seconds. That was pennyworth level bad.
Mosey to the breezeway for people’s chair. Left leg up, right leg up, repeat followed by ballz to the wallz.

Mary: Lumberg 20 merkins OYO, PIckle 10 burpees, Squatter 20 peter parkers

Announcements:
*Jam mentioned a meeting to decide about Dam2Dam; no idea what he meant but if you want clarification ask Jam or Juice.

*Stomp the Swamp coming up – fast runners sign up so the trophy can stay on the mantle of my shop. Rumor has it there are pictures of Men of Ambush drinking beer out of it in celebration, but no pictures have come to light. It must just be a vicious rumor.

Prayers:

*Notebook’s surgery

*Lumberg’s sister in law cancer diagnosis

*Squatters co-worker – 2nd round of breast cancer

Until next time………Go Gamecocks……….MacG
