I don't know if it was actually super hard, or maybe I just worked out too close to breakfast...but I was pretty close to losing my eggs at one point.
It was an interval workout, with longer than usual intervals: 1 minute work/ 20 seconds rest
It included four rounds of four different exercises (4x4):
-jump side lunge (58, 51, 48, 50)
-forward and backward jump burpee (8, 8, 9, 8)
-alternating curtsy squat with 25lb kettlebell (22, 22, 20, 22)
-alternating single leg pike press (18, 14, 14, 14)
In the parenthesis are my scores for each round of the exercise.
I personally think it was brutal! One full minute of effort is more than I usually do and it proved to make the workout extra tough!
Here are some examples of each exercise:
Jump side lunge (Zuzana Light in the picture)
Forward and backward jump burpee
I don't think there's a good picture for it, but it's like a regular burpee with a pushup and instead of jumping upward at the end, you take two jumps: one forward and one backward.

If you try the workout, let me know how you did!!
