YHC put out the preblast along with a call for an EC run, and Schlitz &amp; Frosty answered the early bell. We got back to the AO drenched in sweat and bumped fists with the waiting pax who included an FNG (more later).

Starting at the top of the weinke, do 5 reps of the first exercise and then run a lap around the parking lot. Then do 10 reps of the first two exercises, run a lap. 15 reps of the first three, lap, so on and so forth adding exercises and rep counts until you reach the end of the weinke or the end of the workout, whichever comes first.

We kept to the parking lot but I&#8217;m already excited for my next trip out there to see all the other fun stuff there is to do. Hugo and Wahoo were leading the charge most of the morning. Bevo was a gracious form policer. Schlitz didn&#8217;t have as much to say as usual, but there were still a couple NSFW gems in there. Frosty is a big fan of Rubber Ducky&#8217;s playlist.\u00a0 Landshark was back after a long hiatus and brought his neighbor Sean\/Shawn which leads me to<\/p>\n<p><strong>The FNG:<\/strong> Q Fail not recording the CoT to get a full name. Sean\/Shawn is a former infantryman &amp; platoon commander who spent some time with the 82nd Airborne. He hails from Central PA and currently works in the AI &amp; data center world. During his naming he shared that during his jump training in the Army he had an accident where his static line got tangled around his left arm and caused serious damage to his bicep that required surgery to remove a lot of the muscle, resulting in one arm with a normal (and impressive, I might add) bicep and another devoid of one. We had a few name ideas related to Amish country but then settled on Fiddler, as in a fiddler crab.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27134\" src=\"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/fiddler-crab-134252510-57ffec745f9b5805c2b0f356-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/fiddler-crab-134252510-57ffec745f9b5805c2b0f356-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/fiddler-crab-134252510-57ffec745f9b5805c2b0f356-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/fiddler-crab-134252510-57ffec745f9b5805c2b0f356-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/fiddler-crab-134252510-57ffec745f9b5805c2b0f356-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.f3winstonsalem.com\/f3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/fiddler-crab-134252510-57ffec745f9b5805c2b0f356-2048x1363.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Announcements: Samaritan Ministries needs volunteers tonight from 5-7:30.
