Thruster Burpee 10 to 1 RX'ed... yeh!

Sorry, I havent been posting lately, but I am on a mission to keep this very up-to-date.

Today's workout was:
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 (reps)
Thrusters and Burpees 85/65(womens)

I was kind of excited, because I thought that I would be able to actually rx this one. Last thruster workout I did (black lung) I did 55# thrusters after a full out row.
BTW... Black Lung - courtesy of Russell Berger, CrossFit Huntsville is exactly what it means... your throat burns during it. Ouch!

Anyway... So 3,2,1 go...
I have to say I struggled, to say the least...
I had to take breaks though the thrusters, and and didnt the burpees straight though...
I couldn't breathe.
Luckily my coach stood there and worked me though the final 4 rounds. I really needed it to finish. I actually on round two said, this weight is to heavy.... but I knew it really wasn't, it was just difficult.

Time finished (13:52)

I don't think this time is too impressive. I would like to do this one again in a month and see if I can improve it. Metcons are killing my ability to breathe! Anyone have any ideas to help me get though this???

I did RX though... so for that... I am happy!!!
