Remember Carl Paoli of San Francisco CrossFit? He mentioned that he was starting a project similar to the Mobility WOD was going to call it Gymnastics WOD. Gnarly!
From their FAQ:
Gymnastics WOD is a daily workout based on gymnastics strength & conditioning and gymnastics skill development.
We believe that all performanced based fitness and athletic programs should have a strong foundation in gymnastics. Gymnastics demand athletes to be highly technical, and by training with the proper mechanics in gymnastics athletes are able to work at peak performance for longer periods of time.
Gymnastics WOD is an excellent assistance program to building and maintaining healthy, powerful athletes of any level, sport or discipline. We believe that the skill transfer from gymnastics to running, weightlifting, and all sports is key to an athlete's success, and Gymnastics WOD is here to help you train, learn, and apply this knowledge.
Gymnasts are known to be extremely well rounded athletes and incredibly coachable athletes because of their awareness of their own bodies, mechanics, and capabilities. If you are serious about your performance, you should strive to incorporate gymnastics into your programming. Gymnastics WOD is here to help you understand what gymnastics is, how it can be applied progressively to your program, and focus on the skill transfer to other sports.
We are confident that you will excel in all your sports and movement related activities by staying consistent in incorporating gymnastics into your daily program, having a great attitude, and always chasing quality.

So we should do the Mobility and Gymanstics WOD before our CrossFit WOD?
mostly no.
the gymnastics WOD will usually serve a supplement to the crossfit.com WOD either before or after the workout (Carl's site will designate when). the MWOD is usually for post-WOD, but it's sometimes best to do it later in the day
