pushups- if you can do 8-10, lets start with 5 slow and controlled pushups for all 3 rounds. add 1 rep per week.
chins- Can you do jumping pullups? can you use a chair for assistance instead of bands? I ask because i personally along with Johnny that bands are a terrible way to work towards getting your first pullup?
for L-Sits- can you do an l-sit tuck? if not lets try hanging knee raises. Slow and very controlled. figure out what your max is and do 60% of that for the 3 rounds.
for the overhead squat- start with the bar for sets of 10. If that is too hard then do a broom stick. Concentrate on form. Add 5lbs a week if you start with teh bar. Do 3 weeks with the broom stick if that is where you have to start and then move to the bar or a lighter training bar if you have it.
for burpees follow this LINK
If you have to ,start at 5 burpees per round and just follow the progression laid out in the program.

I can do either of those. I didn't know bands were a bad way to work towards a pullup.

No, I don't think I can do any sort of L-sit at the moment. I will have to try.

Thanks. I have done WODs with 65lb OH squats, so I will start with the bar and add weight.
