A pretty good session with both the work capacity effort and some strength.  The burpees into suicide sprints are a great combo. Some of the athletes I had do 6 burpees and others I dropped to 4.  5 is a good number for most.  The strength portion of the session is at a grind pace.  Try to use bodyweight on the bench for all rounds, but the dips and clapping push ups will catch up to you.  The last circuit doesn't seem like much, but the various back exercises will get you, especially the biceps.  We used a 50lb slam ball, if you do not have a slam ball, 7x jumping pull ups can substitute.
