From mainsite to CrossfitBethesda

Seeing as how Testani's Annie time kicks my ass because I can't do double unders to save my life, I've decided to make the switch from the mainsite programming to my hometown box's website: www.crossfitbethesda.com.  I like this programming because it incorporates things like skill work and mobility workouts into the daily wod, which is something the mainsite lacks.  So usually what happens with me, something like handstand pushups or double unders come up in a mainsite wod, and I haven't practiced those skills bc I don't have enough discipline to do skill work on my own, and I end up scaling those movements and, as a result, never improving at those skills.  So, farewell to mainsite programming for now.  I'm sure I'll continue to watch the vids and follow the workouts...

Yesterday's Crossfit Bethesda wod:
Skill: open session.
I worked on double unders, pistols and handstand pushups.  Strung 5 in a row double unders together on several occasions...I'm coming for you, Testani.  I suck at pistols and haven't done them for awhile so I used a box.  Did some work on hspu's - not so good at these either but saw some improvement. 

Condition:  4 rounds
Max deadhang pullups
Max pushups
