Blow through the WOD as quickly as humanly possible but for the Strength portion, take your time and move slowly and use good form throughout your movements. My preferred cardio for this workout is boxing, mountain climbers, plyo, ect, ect, ect...I also do cardio on my 3 minute rest periods to burn more fat, increase my VO2 Max, and keep the heart going.

Spartan Workout- Pyramid Burpees

If you're going through hell, keep going.
-Winston Churchill

For Time

Pyramid Burpees
100 burpees broken into 19 sets. Looks like this:

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1

Rest as needed between sets but try and keep a steady burpee rhythm or cadence during a set.
Burpees are an artform - experiment with 'pace' in your relationship with burpees. Rush things and you'll find yourself on your back gasping prematurely.

For the beginner:
Cut the workout in half: 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1
