Did this with my 14 yo son... He jumped out to an early lead but I passed him in the third round. He hasn't quite beat his old man yet!

3 rounds+10 Burpees+10 thrusters.
I also have a question for you guys about the nature of this type of workout.
Are we supposed to do these workouts with our whole strength and bring ourselves to complete exhaustion as the main purpose.
Or should we approach it as a sport, and calculate or rest, use of strength throughout the workout etc. in order to maximize our amount of rounds?

Great question - don't mind if I try to answer. We want to increase our overall work capacity - our ability to carry heavy loads, long distances, quickly. So ultimately we want to maximize the number of rounds. However, part of the journey is to learn about ourselves and our capacity on any given day, which might change day-to-day based on any number of factors (sleep, diet, stress, and others). This way, when a particular WOD comes up again, we can go back to our results from last time and adjust if need be.
Here's an example: if I try Cindy without stopping I'll max out around 15-16 rounds, with all the stopping in the later rounds. However, if I do a round, then wait 5-6 seconds before getting back on the pull up bar, I can get more than 25. More work, same amount of time. Increased work capacity, even though I'm deliberately stopping to rest even after the first round.
Hope this answers your question!
PS - if you drive yourself into the ground every time, you'll seriously increase the chances of burnout or injury.

With 20# weight vest, 5 rounds + 3 burpees.
Took this one carefully; the shin was still bleeding pretty good yesterday. Stepped into burpees which slowed it down somewhat. Wall balls broken 10-10 except first round (unbroken). Definitely tougher with the vest – was shooting for 5 rounds and just barely got there.

Bring Coach Glassman back to the front of this organization before the mob destroys it.
I can't do burpees or run, jump or do push-ups because of too much hardware in the foot and ankle. What's a good sub?

How's the squat in the wall ball shot? Maybe split the wallball shot into frontsquats and pushpresses, and have those be the two movements of this workout.
Or if you want to do some sort pushing like a burpee, a floor press or light bench press. Bar/DB's/KB's/medball.
Or or sub a pulling exercise like rows or pull-ups.
Or or or a sumo-deadlift high-pull instead of burpees would still be a gnarly workout.

Reverse lunges with a kettlebell then do a single-arm shoulder press, switching L/R?

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
If you don't treat burpees as a throwaway conditioning movement then you'll find there is a ton of opportunity to practice movement skill and positional strength. Blocking movement with the feet together and elbows in goes a long way towards keeping your hips and shoulders in a safe/strong position. Then using a bow/kip helps reinforce the principle of core-to-extremity - which is at the center of almost every "skilled" movement we have in CrossFit and sport. Even if you're with someone who just uses it to practice getting up off the ground, you are practicing lunging mechanics.
WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS
Burpee - getting up, global extension/global flexion, skill, pushing from the arms, pulling from the hips
Wallball - pushing, jumping, squatting, external load, accuracy component, loss of connection on the squat
WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT
When you see 10 minutes think "sprint." When you think "sprint" and see any reps listed, think "unbroken."
TECHNIQUE SCALE
AMRAP in 12 minutes of:
7 push-ups
21 squats
*practice wallballs and burpees during the warmup
CONSISTENCY SCALE
Lighten the wallballs, maybe drop the burpee number to 7 or so, then extend the AMRAP for 20 minutes.
INTENSITY SCALE
As is. Lower the weight/burpee number so everything can be "UNBROKEN SEXTON" - in Coach T's voice.
